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.

Red and Black Drag nail art

Hey everyone!! Ever wanted to do a quick and easy design???

Can be done on short or long nails!!

Then this is the one for you!! Simple, easy and quick to do!! Here's how :D

Procedure :


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

Step 2  : Apply red to half your nail, and black to the other half and let it dry for a few minutes. We do this step because when we drag the nail polish polish, we don't want our nail to show through.

Step 3  : Now , apply a slightly thicker coat of red and black to the respective halves of your nails and before it dries, quickly, using a needle, drag the nail polish from the red to the black horizantally to form stripes.



Step 4  : Repeat the same process to all the nails, and let it dry. This will take some time since we have applied a thick coat of nail polish.

Step 5  : Finally apply a layer of top coat to seal your design and your done !! :)

Alternative : If you have long nails, you can try doing it only on your tips for a unique French tip , or you could  try dragging from both sides , it's all up to you!!
