Stellar Mani

I've been wanting to do a Philae-related post and decided to save it for a girlie nail post because science babes, that's why.




For those of you who tl;dr -ed the articles about Philae's mission, here are my two favorite points (besides embarrassing you for your shitty parking jobs):

  • Tell us about the elemental composition at the time of the formation of our solar system
  • Give us clues about the role of comets in bringing water to Earth
To show your popular science cred on your nails, you'll need:




Paint a thin layer of the base coat on your badself, then one thick or two thin layers of Wicked depending on the saturation you want.

Want a little red peeking through? That "purposefully" messy paint job will be just fine.

Frost your tips, 90's style with Formula X Volatile and follow with Julep's Freedom Polymer Top Coat.


 Voila--you look stellar with your Philae mani! Here's what you'll sound like, whirring through space:
