You will need:

-A neutral shade base coat

-Feathers

(we suggest guinea feathers or brown almond ringneck pheasant plumage)

-Cuticle trimmers

-Clear top coat

Start by painting the base coat on your nails, let dry. Working on one nail at a time, paint the base coat, the take a small piece of feather. (long and soft feathers without a thick spine) place on nail, and press down firmly, making sure the feather sticks to the nail. Let dry for 2 minuets. Once the feather is stuck on, use the cuticle trimmers to trim off the exsess around your nail, follow with a base coat. Repeat on other nails.

That’s It! This is a super easy manicure that is sure to turn heads!
