So, recently I posted a picture of an old nail art I did a while back on Instagram (@Kelly1393). It is the oldest picture of my nail art design that I own. Here is the picture from Instagram:
So, I thought.. Why not do it again and show everyone how to do it? It may be a bit time consuming, but it's not difficult at all, and I think it looks cute! Also, summer is almost here, and what says summer more than bold and vibrant colors?
Here is everything I used for the design:
Base coat- Essence Ultra strong nail repair
Green- Essence Colour&Go 170 beijos de brazil
Blue- Maybelline New York mini Colorama 80 Electric Blue
Yellow- Essence Colour&Go 23 Sundancer
Red- Essence Colour&Go 186 polka holga
Lilac- Catrice cosmetics 130 Lucky In Lilac
White- Essence Colour&Go 199 wild white ways
White liner- Manhattan Pro French tip whitener in 11A
Top coat- Konad Top Coat 41
A dotting tool - mine has two ends- a fine and a thicker one, but you'll do just fine with only a fine one
(P.S. Of course, you can use different colors and different brands, just make sure that the colors are opaque)
Step 1:
As always, I prepped the nails by removing polish that was on before, filing them and pushing cuticles. After that I applied a base coat and let it dry.
Step 2:
Step 3:
Then I drew 3 little waves on each nail with a liner white polish (for this step you can also use a fine tip brush and a white polish).
Step 4:
Step 5:
The next step was taking all of the colors and a dotting tool and dotting them along the white line on each nail. In that step I didn't use the main color on each nail for lining the white waves (on pinky nail I used all of the colors except lilac, etc.) And I started placing dots (bigger and smaller ones) on the white part and later on on the colored part, too.
Step 6:
After I had placed all the dots where they had to be, and I liked the final look, I placed a small white dot in each colored dot and a few on the colored part of the nail.
Step 7:
Let me know what you think about this nail art design? Do you like seeing those on my blog?
