How To Make Homemade Nail Polish

According to YouTuber Alexandra's Girly Talk, making your own nail polish is actually super simple, and you don't need many materials to get started. Alexandra explains that in order to start creating your own range of custom polishes, you only need a few staples — these consist of eyeshadow and clear nail polish. You'll also need a small mixing bowl and a tool to scrape out the eyeshadow from the container.

For making homemade nail polish, Byrdie suggests pouring out a small amount of the clear polish if the bottle is brand new, so that you don't cause an overflow when adding the color pigments from the eyeshadow to it. It's also a good idea to opt for a clear polish that comes in a clear bottle, so it's easier to see how pigmented your color looks after adding some of the eyeshadow to it.
