Cats In Space Nail Art

23rd July, 2012 - Posted by Emily - 21 Comments

This weekend I visited my family and painted my cousin Johanna’s nails. I actually don’t do nail art on other people that often but I always really enjoy it. She absolutely loves cats so I did cat nails for the occasion. I painted cats on my own nails too, you can sort of see them in the picture above, I have a clearer one up on Instagram, feel free to follow me, just look for veryemily.

My cousins husband, Yannick, was kind enough to take the picture above, I’m absolutely in love with it! I don’t have any pictures of me doing nail art so I’m really happy he took some. There’s a video of me doing her nails as well, which I cannot wait to see!

This is what I ended up doing cats and nebulas! Johanna appropriately named these “Cats in Space”. They were inspired by the cat nails from Disco Nail. If you’d like to know which polishes I used I’ve listed them below:

  • China Glaze Strong Adhesion Base Coat, Illamasqua Load, Dearlee 034, Dearlee 25, It’s So Easy Stripe Rite Black, Models Own Peach Puff, Orly Galaxy Girl, China Glaze Fairy Dust, China Glaze Rich & Famous, China Glaze Hey Sailor, China Glaze Aquadelic, China Glaze Spontaneous, BK matte white, Essence Sunshine 4Ever, 2B green, Sinful Colors Rise and Shine, Essence Studio Nails Top Sealer
