Steam punk nails!





According to wikipedia Steampunk fashion is a subgenre of the steampunk movement in science fiction. It is a mixture of the Victorian era's romantic view of science in literature and the industrialization in most parts of Europe. The aesthetics of the fashion are designed with a post-apocalyptic era in mind. The costumes included clothing, hairstyling, jewellery, body modification and make-up. Steampunk fashion has later gone on to include gadgets and contrasting accoutrements.




Initially, the clothes such as bustiers, bodices', jackets and other items were mostly handmade and customized, but as the steampunk movement grew, entrepreneurs and companies became interested and started to mass-produce steampunk clothing to be sold both online and in stores.

Now steampunk fashion is becoming main stream now and nail art industry is offering many tool and products related to this trend.

I really wanted to try some nails inspired to the steam punk trend but I never found the right product for it. The free hand drawing option looked too difficult for me.
I was recently contacted by the company Big Bang Beauty and in their store I found this set of stickers
The sheets has many stickers in different sizes and styles, they all look like clock pieces, or others hardware and machinery parts.

For this nail art I left half of the nail clear and on the other half I did a marble pattern with a black and a bronze shade. Then I applied the stickers between the clear part and the design to make them more visible.
I was really amazed by the quality of these stickers, the designs are very detailed and the glue is very strong so they stick to the nail very well. They don't make air bubble or stains. They measure approximately 4mm 6mm and 8mm in diameter so they are suitable for long or short nails.
You can use some tweesers to take them off the sheet and apply on the nails
I added some 3d mini steam punk nail art decoration, I think they would go well with the sitcker and create a tridimentional effect.
I sealed the designs with 2 coats of clear glossy polish.
