Nail Art Tutorial: Perky Orange Pop Nails

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!

Let's all snap our fingers and say...
