Benefits of technology

[0013] To achieve these and other advantages and in accordance with the purpose of the invention, as embodied and broadly described herein, the invention provides an artificial fingernail molded to contain liquid. According to the invention, the edge of a first layer is joined to the edge of a second layer. A liquid portion is positioned in between the first layer and the second layer. The color and composition of the liquid portion, along with decorative objects placed in the liquid portion, produce a desired cosmetic effect.

Problems solved by technology

Artificial fingernails and toenails pose two considerable problems.
First, decorative methods such as nail polish, paint, or adhesives require significant care, skill, and time to apply.
Additionally, only the outside surface of an artificial nail can be decorated, limiting the possibilities of cosmetic effects.
Carroll cannot achieve the cosmetic effect associated with liquid.
