Daily Beauty Tip-Turn Your Eye Shadow Into A Nail Polish

Hey dearies. Last week was so busy for me that I had to work during the weekend. So I decided after i got back from church on Sunday to take myself out to relax and relieve off work stress.  My intention was to go watch any good nigerian movie at silverbird gallaria but on my way up, i decided to stroll into a cosmetic shop. While checking out their products I noticed this averagely tall lady in white bootcut pants and a sleeveless fuschia pink top. Could not really see the shoes bcos her pants covered them as it was almost touching the ground but it was obvious she was wearing heels.  Overheard her saying to the attendant with a frustrated countenance that she needed a pale lilac nail polish. She had in her hand, the exact color of eyeshadow and explained she needed that particular color to match her nails and compliment her attire to work the next day which was Monday. I simply joked she mixes the Lilac eye shadow with white polish to this we all laughed. I paid for my stuff and left the shop.  Much later after i got home, i recounted the event at the cosmetic shop and decided to try out my suggestion. Was surprised to get a perfect result! So if you are someone who likes to match and color-coordinate everything before stepping out of the house, this one tip might prove to be just the thing to do when you don't have the exact shade or color of a nail paint.

Things you need

  • Eye shadow of your choice of color
  • Clear nail polish

Instruction
1. Use a knife to scratch a layer or two of the eyeshadow in a bowl. This quantity should be enough for least 10 nails; Double the quantity if you want to paint your toe nails too. Incase your eye shadow is in liquid form, you might just scoop it up a little.
 2. Use a cotton swab to add few drops of clear nail paint to the powder and Voila! A nail polish matching the color of your eye shadow is ready.

The nail Polish can easily be removed with your regular nail remover or dissolver in no time.
