Steps

  1. For the top coat, you would in a small bowl pour in the clear nail polish to form the base or the top coat. Pour every drop of the base into the bowl and wait for a second.
  2. Now choose a tablet of eyeshadow hue from the palette. For example, if you like matte or powdery pink, choose that or else a shiny shimmery pink too can do. We leave the choice of hues and colors to you. Crush the tablet by scooping it with a spatula out of the eyeshadow palette and then pouring it into the bowl which already has the top coat. As you do so, you have got to start mixing the top coat and the eye shadow with the spatula, so as to avoid clumps. It is going to be trial and error until you get the hue and shade you want, so keep mixing- we here would say, observe and get creative with the shades and colors you want to use.
  3. The next step is an optional one, but if you want the fairy glitter effect to come onto your nails, you may add a little pearl powder or silver glitter. Mix well once again and allow it to rest for a second.
  4. Now pour the mixture into a nail polish bottle and keep it in the freezer for an hour to set. Use thereafter as and when you want to use.

Sometimes colors when mixed too much with white, gray or black can create lighter or darker tints, tones and shades. This is why it is important to understand the color wheel very well before making your own nail polish at home. To have neutral colors, you would need a combination of secondary colors and tertiary colors on the wheel; mixed and applied. Too much glitter in the mix can make the nail polish look grey at the beginning; it is normal and doesn’t reflect the same later on.
