Olive Green Baby Boomer Almond Nails

How to get olive green baby boomer almond nails at home

1. Prep: push back cuticles, buff the shine off the nail plate and wipe with alcohol so the base coat grips.
2. Shape: File the sides in a straight line toward the center and round the tip softly, like the top of an almond.
3. Apply a olive green base over the whole nail.
4. Dab milky white onto the tip half with a makeup sponge (or a gel sponge brush).
5. Blend upwards with light taps until there is no visible line between the colours.
6. Seal with a thick glossy top coat to smooth the gradient.
7. A drop of cuticle oil at the end makes the photo-ready difference.

Pro tip: Build the white in two or three light layers — one heavy layer leaves a hard edge.
