The weather is terribly hot nowadays and seriously, there's no point in putting on makeup so I use up my energy to create fierce looking nails instead! I've done a series on simple nail art and let me get back to my first love! Dainty floral nails!
Thanks to Caronia for re-introducing me to new Caronia shades. I am really impressed with the shades available. They are coming up with really perky shades perfect for youngsters, including me teehee --- hey! No Violent Reactions please!
Step 1:
Apply your preferred base coat to protect your nails prior to nail polish application. Apply 2 coats of your favorite orange polish. I am using Caronia's Orange Pop polish. Very pigmented and has a nice frost finish.
Step 2:
To create a nice shimmer, apply 1 coat of Caronia Frosted polish in Sunset. If you do not own a similar shade, you can apply a clear coat.
Step
3:
White the clear polish or the Frosted Sunset polish is still wet, quickly drop 5 dots just like what I did on photo below. Do not be scared if the dot starts to expand, that's what we're trying to do.
Step 4:
White the dots are still wet, use a needle to create a nice petal. Try to be quick on steps 3-4.
Step 5:
It is your option to add extra dots if you like.
Step 6:
To create an illusion of a flower with petal, I am using Prettynails' 2 way nail art pen in yellow, using the thin brush to gently brush the middle portion of the flower. The more imperfect it is, the better!
Step 7:
Apply your favorite Top Coat to protect your nail art. My nail art lasts at least a week because of this!
