Step 1:
Apply a base coat prior to nail polish application. Apply 2 coats of OPI polish in Done Out in Deco.Step 2:
Making sure the 2 coats are dry, use a gold glitter polish to apply the tip of the nails with feather-like motion. I am using Bourjois mini polish. I am in the mood to use mini polishes! *hahaha*Step 3:
Just like regular flower nail art, drop 5 drops of white polishUse the needle and feather the dots inward just like on photo below
Step 4:
Now this is the "new" part, aside from feathering out the inner dot, feather out the outer dot as well to create a different "feel" of flowerStep 5:
This is optional, but to fill in the other space, create smaller dots below the flower.Alternate white dots and pink dots
Do the same on other nails, I alternate the flower color
Using White and Pink Prettynails' Art pen
Step 6:
I used Swarovski flat bed clear stones to create the flower bud, press with a toothpick to make sure it stays.Step 7:
Do not forget to apply top coat to protect your nail art. Make sure to apply the top coat when the nail art is dry.Here's my very dainty nails to start the year right!
I hope you learn something different to create flowers :)
And I do hope you wont' get scared to try nail art!
Practice makes you happy...
Keep smilin'
Stay happy!
Stay happy!
