My DIY Christian Louboutins

The time I will be able to truly buy Christian Louboutins is when I actually become a real doctor. But until then, I wanted to try a makeshift way to create a somewhat semblance of them...

Tools:
Acetone (100%)
Rubbing alcohol (70%)
Cotton rounds
1 pair of black shoes (or whatever high-heels you prefer)
Q-tips to clean up excess nail polish

Nail polishes:
Base coat and top coat: Revlon Multi Care Base+Top Coat
Base color: 1:1 mixture of ELF Essential Nail Polish in Fire Coral and Maybelline Express Finish #800 in Sultry Siren.

 
The setup



Step 1: Clean the shoes with rubbing alcohol and cotton rounds.



Step 2: Apply a layer of topcoat.


Step 3: Apply 2 layers of the 1:1 mixture.



Step 4: Apply 1 layer of top coat.

Step 5: Allow to dry for at least 3 hours (for good measure), preferably overnight.


Voila!
