Al Pacino's character Tony Montana from the movie Scarface has one epic wall mural! I remember watching this movie for the first time about five years ago and I fell in love with the wall paper but realistically no one would do all four walls including the door like that ... unless you're ballin' and mad like Tony Montana. Perhaps just an accent wall but even then it is not cheap. Yes, I did Google and try to look it up back in the day. A 3m by 4m sheet is almost $1,000.00.
But here is my less permanent and less expensive version on my nails!
- small make up sponge
- fine nail art brush or fine paint brush
- piece of paper towel
- cotton swabs and nail polish remover (for clean up)
Nail Polish I used:
Orange - O.P.I - Hot & Spicy
Yellow - Sally Hansen - Mellow Yellow
Red - Chanel - Dragon
Black - China Glaze - Liquid Leather
**** optional pre step one ****
Many nail artists put tape or vaseline on the skin around their finger nails to lessen clean up, I personally choose not to because I find it to be more work fighting with tape over a cotton swab.Step One: Ombre time!
Cut the make up sponge to the average width of your finger nail and paint it with the nail polish in this order.
Then dab it lightly onto the paper towel to remove excess nail polish and to prevent it from glopping and hard core smudging on your nail.
Step Two: Sponging time!
In a dabbing rolling from left to right motion sponge on the color. Do it a few times until you have the desired hue you want. Clean up the finger nail edges with a cotton swab dipped in nail polish remover.
Step Three: Beach and Palm tree painting!
Now using the nail art brush or paint brush dip it into the black nail polish and paint the beach and palm trees as shown below.
Top coat it then you're done like dinner!
