Yup, a ring for them nails! Nails rings became pretty popular around the time when everyone was obsessed with mid-rings. Yup, I know you were one of them too.
As the name suggests, they are 'rings' that you put over your finger and it looks as if you have some fancy-ass nails. It is the fastest way you can give your nails a metallic makeover. Just wear it over the nails you want to look extra AF and that's it.
A Touch Of Metallic
Another amazing way to add the magic of metal to your nails without going overboard is via giving your nails the *gold dripping* effect. Instead of working on your bare nails, give your current mani a makeover.
- Pour some nail polish in a bowl (disposable bowl is the best option here!).
- Using a fine brush, start drawing random lines on your nail design (freestyle).
- Let your nails dry and then seal the deal.
If you do not have a fine tip brush, you can always use a toothbrush to create the 'splash' effect. Just dip your toothbrush into the nail polish and press it (going upwards to downwards) to create a splatter. Make sure you wear gloves on the hand you're using to touch the nail polish.
