Perhaps you've already tried "painting" your nails with newspaper and you're aware of how cool it looks. But there's something even cooler – and that's adding comic strips to your nails. It's as easy as the technique used for newspaper and the result is just perfect for the next comic convention!

Apply a topcoatThe topcoat will help the ink to stay on your nails longer; otherwise it risks being rubbed off as a result of your daily activities. It will also give your fingernails an all over shine , and a more finished look.

Place this particular image on your nails, hold it there without moving for about 10 seconds. The longer you hold the image onto your fingernail, the more it will show up, so it's a good idea to be comfortably seated for this step. When you think it has been in place long enough, carefully peel it off so as not to smudge the image.

It might help to have a friend assist with the positioning of the comic images; that will depend on what you're using and how shaky you tend to be. It's also easier for someone else to place them on your dominant hand since you'd be doing it with your non-dominant hand otherwise.
