What You Need:
Black nail polish of your choice
Red nail polish of your choice
Clear top coat
Cotton swab or Q-tip
Nail polish remover
Studs, rhinestones, gold or silver chains (optional)
How It’s Done:
1. Start with a base coat to protect your nails from the dark polish shades.
2. Polish the area underneath your nail in the bold red shade you selected. You may need two coats to get the desired pigment. Polishing this part first allows you room to cover up any mistakes with the next step.
3. Polish the top of your nail with two coats using black polish.
4. Wait for the black polish to dry completely and finish it with a shiny top coat.
5. While your top coat is still wet, add optional studs, rhinestones, or chains to one nail on each hand to give your look a little more edge.
6. Take your Q-tip dipped in polish remover and clean up any excess polish that may have gotten on your skin.
