The different nail

I call this nail look this name because one nail is different from all the rest.

Supplies:

• Any nail polish you want
• Any glitter nail polish that is the same or almost the same color as the original nail polish

Steps:

1. Paint your nails any color. Leave one nail (mostly likely your ring finger or thumb) without any nail polish

2. Paint any glittery color on the nail you left unpainted.

3. Wait 5 min. to dry.

4. Enjoy your lovely nails!
