FACE REVEAL!
I'm so sad I can't do that anymore…
I want to do more face reveals!
I just recorded this whole video without sound, so we're doing it again!
Hey guys, it's Sandi!
And in today's tutorial I'm going to be showing you this super cute strawberry manicure that's
been dipped into chocolate!
Yeah, that's all you do!
You just paint a strawberry on your nail and then you dip them into chocolate!
No, I'm kidding!
Don't do that!
That would be crazy!
But what's really cool about this manicure is the drizzled chocolate is 3D so it actually
looks like real chocolate!
And…
it smells like real chocolate!
Guys, seriously!
It smells like real chocolate!
And I'm going to show you how you can do all of this just by using nail polish!
So stay tuned and I'll show you how I did it!

And now, back to voice over!
Chocolate covered strawberries is one of my favorite treats.
They're so fun to make and super delicious to eat.
What's one of your favorite treats?
Let me know in the comments.
In today's video I'm going to be showing you how to paint these sweet little treats on
your nails!
The drizzle will be 3D and they will smell like actual chocolate.
So, let's begin!
Start off by painting all of your nails with a base coat and then choose a strawberry red
polish to paint your nails with.
Red polishes are almost always very opaque so you may be able to get away with one coat
for this design.
Next choose a bright green polish and use a toothpick to draw on some leaves coming
down from your cuticle.
Don't think too much about it, just draw a few random triangles coming down from your
cuticle.
Then use a stippling motion to fill the leaves.
Make sure the red underneath is fully dry or you will be bringing that colour up from
the nail and mixing it into the leaves.
Now it's time for a bright yellow polish.
Use this to add random small dots over the red for seeds.
No need to worry if some dots are a little bigger than others--- it just makes it look
more natural.
It's time for the chocolate!
Choose a chocolate brown polish and paint the tip of your nail with it.
The easiest way to do this is by keeping your brush still and slowly turning your finger
to cover the entire tip of the nail.
Give that a couple minutes to dry and then, if you really want the 3d effect to be prominent,
you will want to apply your top coat now.
If not, you can do it after and the nails will definitely dry faster, but the 3d effect
will be lessened.
Now it's time for my favorite part--- the white chocolate drizzle.
I'm using a special polish by Color Club that smells like white chocolate when it's dry!
If you don't have this, you can always just opt for regular white polish.
To do the 3D drizzling, you will need to place a small puddle of white polish onto some tinfoil
and allow it to dry for about 15-20 minutes.
We want it to become stringy.
Keep checking to see when it's done.
It will look REALLY stringy like this when it's ready!
Then just use a toothpick to string the polish over the tip of your nail.
I like to push all of the polish from the puddle over to one side when it's ready to
string, I find this really helps.
And that's it!
Just give it some time to dry and you will have a super cute mani that's 3D and smells
like chocolate!
I really hope you enjoyed today's video!
