You know why?
I'm not good at drawings!
I have shaky hands
I can NEVER draw a straight line...
And I always do everything IMPERFECT!
So to you gals out there who wanted to try this, I would say GO AHEAD!
You'll be surprised at how good it all comes out! :D
Or if it isn't nice, it can still make you happy!
Ok, let me cut the speech short LOL
I've chosen another color, I call this the SPACE Age Purple because it isn't the usual purple that's too dark, but it isn't too light either, it is very "Teenage-y"!

Step 1:
I've used Caress Nail Polish in Purple!
They came out with all the cool colors like hot pink, orange, greens and purples!
I applied 3 coat of this, YES 3 coat to show up the color!

Do a French tip. Feel free to choose any color that you think would work well on purples. I've chosen white. You can try pinks, greens etc...

Using a light pink nail art pen, create dots irregularly or uniformly, whatever you want. I've drawn a design on the photo for reference.

Step 4:
I always wanted the thumb nail to be a bit different. Aside from the dots on Step 3 above, I've added a big flower, again using needle to extend the flower to create a more natural petal. Then put "irregular sized" dots all over the nail.

Continue creating colors by dotting the yellow pen on the space between the pink dots

Check back your hands and see what's missing. I wanted to add more sparkle to my nail art, so using the Art Deco Sparkly Silver polish (Thanks Aly) on top of the white french tip

Wait for a couple of minutes for the nail art to dry, top it with a clear nail polish to protect your nail art design.

ReplyDeletevery nice, I can never do my right hand! especially not as detailed as u!
ReplyDeleteThat has got to be one of the cutest nail art I've ever seen! I can't do French tips to save my life, but that's well done. Especially the little flower, which I really like.
ReplyDeleteBravo!
Great nail arts :) I lurve yer works <3 They're awesome! I usually use the ordinary nail polish to put designs but it takes hours for me to do so I'm planning to buy the nail art pens to lessen the work and to look nicer but unfortunately I can't afford :\ uhh :] still in high school. What would be the alternative ?
