Newspaper nail art is one of the easy nail arts which do not require much of an effort. I did five nails in about 10 minutes and it looks so different and unique
Following are the products which one needs for doing newspaper nail art
1.Top coat
2.A light nail paint (I have tried it in light pink, white and grey nail polish . It works the best on white as words of the newspaper are more clear )
3.One piece of newspaper which is cut into 10 small pieces.
Rubbing Alcohol (Hydrogen Peroxide solution)- When I asked the local store chemist if he has rubbing alcohol as expected he refused so I asked him to give me alcohol spirit which is applied on wounds and then he got to know what exactly I was looking for.
This product is of Alpha pharma industry and is quite safe. How I know about the safety?? Well! while opening its inside cap I almost landed up gulping 2-3 drops and I didn’t die 
or may be I am a hard nut to crack 
Now apply two coats of nail polish of your choice.I am using womsee colour of joy silver wave nail paint here.When I applied nail paint on all my nails the nail polish dried fast and I was not able to get the newspaper impression easily therefore I suggest you to do two nails at a time .Trick is that the nail polish should neither be too dry nor too wet on your nails to get the impression easily.
Now dip your nails for 6-7 seconds in rubbing alcohol.
Press a small piece of newspaper on your nails and press it for 15 seconds.While pressing I applied some alcohol on the newspaper also.
Ta da!! I am done Do not forget to seal the nail art with a top coat again.
You might not get it for first time but with some practice it is easy to get this nail art.
Newspaper nail art without rubbing alochol
I tried using this with oil but it didn’t work then I used vodka and it did work . Hic!!

hhaha ya Tanz its Hydrogen peroxide and it was so funny when i asked the chemist about it
I asked for rubbing alcohol yesterday at my chemist and he looked blank. I fortunately googled beforehand that found out that it is Isopropyl Rubbing Alcohol. – Surgical Clinical spirit that docs use to clean your skin before giving you an injection
u can just tell him to give a solution to clean wounds..he will understand
Wow Anamika looks so amazing
…i so want to try this …. i gonna buy this rubbing alcohol the moment i land 
haha this is what i did..moment i came home from Delhi i bought this and tried..i didnt even wash my face
Oh my bottle of rubbing alcohol reads ‘Surgical Spirit’ !!
And i want those cute nail paint bottles you have..

but i dont grow nails so cant do nail art he he
thanks a lot Mitha..my nails breaks down quite often because of frequent maids absent ism..thankfully they r not taking many offs

btw one query…when u put the newspaper on semi dry NP doesnt the NP get all squishy?

goodoone. i think it would be a goood idea to take a piece from an adv. or somethin with coloured writings, and then do it, would it look nice then too? i dont use nailpolish but i like to see nail art
i m not sure how the colour will transfer but yes indeed its a good idea..welcome to wise she pm
well, m still a tad bit confused but i guess this is somethin which can be learnt only by experience…
hii zara
yaa …no body mentioned it in their tute this might be because all nail polishes will act differently with the print i believe.
true..cant predict this..
ya thats wat wen I ask dem rubbing alcohol..dey like look towards me as if …god knows what she is talking bout..kinda look
would ask hydrogen peroxide next tym…thanks
