Pink and white flowers!

Heylo!

Todays nails are these pretty pink blossoms on an aqua/peacock green base!



Heres how to get them on your nails:

1. First paint on a base coat to prevent your nails from staining.

2. Add 2 coats of green or any shade of nail colour you prefer.

3. Paint small petal shapes for the folower with some white acrylic paint.



4. Now add a little pink to the outer edges of the petals, blending it in with the white so that you get a nice gradient from pink to white.

4. Finally outline the petals with some black acrylic to define them and add some black and silver microbeads to the center of each flower and you're done!!

5. Add a layer of top coat to complete the look😄😄

Hope you liked it!

One stroke acrylic paint design

Hey !! After a loooong time I finally sat down and did a new nail art..

I've been wanting to try out the one stroke manicures for a long time, but i could never find the right sized brush. Now I finally got a small flat end brush and decided to try it out .







The paint was a little watery, so the colours weren't so opaque in one coat, i havd to go over the flowers again to make them visible.






I did the flower only on my thumb and middle finger, cause they are wider and have more space, so it;s easier to paint the flowers.

One the remaining nails I just did one stroke leaves. I used red and white for the flowers, and green and yellow for the leaves. as usual a base coat and top coat, i painted my base black to make the flowers stand out more.

Glitter + Flower Nail Art

Hey people !!

This is a simple design for all those beginners out there and also for people who lack patience ;)

It can me done on long nails and also modified for short nails!!

You don't even need to know any techniques for this cute design!!







PROCEDURE :

Step 1  : Paint a base coat to protect your nails and also to prevent them from staining.

Step 2  : Next apply a base colour of your choice. I suggest apply 2 thin layers instead of one thick gooey layer.

Step 3  : Using a dotting tool, and the colour of your choice for the flower, dot 5 or 6 dots in a circle, at the bottom corner of your nail to form the flower.

Step 4  : Apply a dot of  clear nail polish at the centre and apply a rhinestone.

Step 5  : If you have short nails, you can stop with this design. Or modify the following steps to the top part of your nails.

Step 6  : Apply clear polish diagonally at the tip of your nail. Quickly, before it dries, sprinkle some glitter on it.





Step 7  : Keep a sheet of paper beneath your nail to pour back the excess glitter back into the container. Using a fan brush, lightly press onto the glitter to set it, and then brush the excess off.

Step 8  : Finish off with a top coat to seal the rhinestone, glitter and your beautiful design. :)
