Nail art is the latest trend and it is loved by women of all ages. It is a way to express style, personality and creativity. Creating designs for nails does not have to be time-consuming nor does it require an expensive trip to the salon. You can do your own manicures at home easily and quickly with just a few simple tools and your own nail polish. These designs work for short, long or acrylic nails.
These, to me, are an absolute essential. They are nail polishes that come with a long, thin brush rather than the usual flat and broad ones. I use them for painting lines and adding random flicks of colour. They are so easy to use and very versatile. I recommend getting two colours, white and black, when you first start. Brands like LA Colors have a wide range of colours and come pretty cheap, so have fun with it!
Acrylic nails are very sturdy and durable and you may prefer them to other types. Gel nails on the other and would be appropriate for you if you are looking for a more natural look. It is important to note, however, that gel nails are not as strong or as durable as the acrylic ones. Its biggest advantage is that it should be filled in less often.
Dip the easy nail designs or gems into nail glue and carefully set them on your nails using tweezers. You can also add glitter by gently shaking it onto wet nails.
Acrylic nails are versatile as you can buy them with the nail art already on them. There are many readymade designs to choose from or you may decide to do your own nail art. If you want attention getting fingertips, there are designs that will fit the occasion. You could decide to opt for halloween nail designs for everyday use or you could go elegant for a date, wedding or other special occasions.
Girls in this age range tend to love gadgets and electronics. Most tween girls are really into music. One great idea is an Ipod Nano. The 8GB can hold up to 2,000 songs. It’s small and light and can easily be clipped on to her sleeves. Purchase it in hot pink for the tween girl. This retails for about $140.
To do all these processes, you need one hour. If you apply this directly on your nails, it will last for about a month. The false ones last shorter, or about three weeks.
