Caviar Manicure? YES!

It’s not your expensive bottle of fish eggs. The Caviar Manicure is a growing trend in today’s nail art world. As a fairly simple fashioned individual, I’m totally digging the Caviar Manicure and I simply can’t wait to try it. Creating a design may be a bit extensive in complexity or maybe not, depending on the capabilities of the nail artist or yourself (if you’re brave enough to give it a try!). When reviewing designs of other, I find that I’m drawn to the simple one nail accent effect. Although I’m loving the black caviar effect!
What is a Caviar Manicure? Simply put, it is a step by step process of creating an elegant three dimensional beaded effect to polished nails. To begin, clean manicured nails are covered with a clear base coat of polish. After the base coat dries, the normal two coats of colored nail polish is applied. The colored coat of nail polish should be similar in color to the craft or caviar manicure beads. Once the colored polish is completely dry, a coat of nail glue or resin is applied. The caviar or craft beads are then applied and allowed to set. https://preciousnuptials.com/blog/2013/01/18/caviar-manicure-nail-art/A top coat is used to seal the beads. Let it dry and that’s it!
