00:05Hi, I'm Christy and I'm the photo editor and DIY expert here at Refinery29 and today we're
00:11going to test out the new Blacks typography kit. It has everything you need to make newsprint
00:17nails, so let's try it out. So the kit's $16 and you get everything you need to do the newsprint
00:23nails. You get newspaper, the nude nail polish, a transfer solution, and a top coat. You'll
00:30also need cuticle scissors and a cotton ball or a piece of cotton to hold the newsprint
00:34on. So the first step is to paint your nails with the nail polish. You could use a different
00:41color. This isn't any sort of special nail polish, but this nude color is the one that
00:46comes with the kit. So the next step is to cut small pieces of the newsprint that are
00:52included in the kit for your nails. I don't think these have to be exact, just general
01:00pieces the size of your nails. One pretty cool thing that's included in the kit is this transfer
01:05solution. Before when you did it at home you had to use alcohol or rubbing alcohol. So you
01:10want to go nail by nail for this. You'll use the transfer solution, put it on your nail.
01:21The directions say to cover your nails in this transfer solution and hold a piece of newsprint
01:26over it with a cotton ball for 30 seconds. So for each nail you'll cut a different piece
01:33of newsprint which is why they give you so much in the kit. The last product included in
01:38the kit is a top coat and this is important to seal the print so it doesn't rub off. One
01:49is better than cutting out some story from the newspaper and putting it on your nails. Overall
01:54I think this kit is a really good deal. It has everything you need to do the manicure. It's
01:58reasonably priced and it works. So I say pass.
