Total Time: 20 minutes

Yield: 10 beautiful galaxies

Supplies:

1 bottle of clear nail polish
a few bottles of different coloured nail polish, including black or dark blue, and one white
1 bottle of glitter or confetti polish
2 mini eyeshadow sponge brushes

Steps:

Paint one coat of clear nail polish on your nails as a base coat. Let dry.

Paint one coat of black or dark blue polish. This will serve as your your "space" backdrop.

Dab a tiny bit of white nail polish onto one of your eyeshadow sponge applicators. Gently dab white on the centers of each nail.

Dab a bit of blue (or whatever colour your fancy) onto another eyeshadow applicator. Gently paint around the white on your nails.

On to the next colour! I chose vibrant pink. Get paint on the backside of one of the eyeshadow applicators (to be super thrifty) and dab lightly on the nails. If you want more pop, layer white on top and go round the nails. This makes them more flashy. Let them dry for a few minutes.
