Fire-Themed Nails (Very Easy)

Hello everyone! I'm going to make a fire-themed makeup tutorial on YouTube soon, and I created a very simple nail art with it, and decided to put a tutorial for that on here instead!

Materials

• Black nail polish
• Orange nail polish
• Red nail polish
• Base coat
• Top coat
• Makeup sponge
• Makeup pads
• Nail polish remover

Steps

53- Summer Peach

160- Cherry Red

1. Remove any nail polish that was previously on your nails. 
2. Paint your nails with your base coat. I'm using Sally Hansen Double Duty Base & Top Coat. 
3. Once your base coat is dry to the touch, paint it two coats of the orange nail polish to make it opaque. I'm using Sinful Colors Professional in 53- Summer Peach.
4. Once the orange nail polish is dry to the touch, take your makeup sponge and paint the top with red nail polish. Then, blot the sponge onto 2/3 of your nails closest to the tip. I did this twice to make it opaque. I used Sally Hansen Hard as Nails X-treme Wear in 160- Cherry Red.
5. Once the red nail polish is dry to the touch, either a) cut the top of your sponge off, or b) get a new sponge. Paint the top of that one with the black nail polish and do the same technique as step 4, except paint 1/3 of your nail closest to the tip. I did this once on most of nails to give it an ashy and  more fiery look, but on some the red was showing through too much so I touched it up. I used Sinful Colors Professional in 103- Black on Black.
6. Once the black nail polish is dry to the touch, paint one coat of your top coat over the design. I'm using the base coat, but it's a base and top coat, so don't fret. 
7. Your nails are probably going to look a bit dingy around them by now, so use some nail polish remover and clean up around the edges.
