Guide: How to make eye shadow nail polish

Requirements:

• Clean empty bottle
• Ball bearings
• Clear nail polish
• Mineral eyeshadow
• Funnel (optional)

You can buy empty nail polish bottles or use one that you have cleaned. I bought mine from eBay. They appear to be factory seconds but they do the job. I also bought my ball bearings from eBay. Try to ensure that you buy stainless steel ball bearings otherwise they WILL rust.

Method:

1. Place ball bearings into empty nail polish bottle. These will assist in agitating the polish base and pigment.
2. Fill your bottle approximately half full of clear nail polish.

3. Add some eye shadow pigment. I have only used mineral pigment. If you have a pressed powder, pulverise into a powder first. You do not want lumps in your polish. This process will be facilitated if you use a funnel.

4. Shake vigorously to combine.

5. Complete filling your bottle with more clear polish. Leave space in case you require more pigment.
6. Shake well.
7. Test. Add more pigment as required. Have fun experimenting!
