Forget about the selfie, it’s all about the nailfie.
Instagram fans will know that there’s been a major #nailfie craze sweeping across the internet over the past few months. Nail art has been around for awhile, and it looks like it’s here to stay with beauty addicts across the globe.
To celebrate the launch of their new Miracle Gel Collection, we’ve teamed up with the nail experts at Sally Hansen to bring you seven tips to help you achieve that picture perfect nailfie shot!
Check them out below…
1. Colour is your friend
Coloured backgrounds are key to create a mood and make shade details pop.
2. Get yourself some props
Become a clutch player – literally. Grip edges and props to angle nails toward the lens.
3. Use polish props
Polish as props. Grab just-used bottles to create a pose.
4. Get creative with your background
Choose creative backdrops to complement special details and deliver a unique combination.
5. Be a team player
#Teamwork. Use the buddy system to shoot that two-handed pose. Remember to return the favour.
6. Strike a pose
Try new poses to keep it interesting. Playfulness and fun are essential ingredients in the ultimate #nailfie
7. Filter wisely
Filters – transforming the ordinary to extraordinary from Hudson to Nashville… experiment with a combination of flash/brightening effects for amazing results.
