Nail Art

hello, sorry I didn't post this Sunday, it was a busy weekend as I had my prom. Posts will continue as normal now :)

I'm not really one to go all arty farty fancy on my nails because it takes time, skill, tools and patience that I don't have. However, now I've left school and have more time on my hands I am starting to venture out and experiment. 

This is the easiest and most effective nail art I have ever come across, I love it and I'm gonna teach you how to do it.

1. I painted my nails with collection's mardis gras line in the colour "white out" I used this as a base coat 

2. I used an RCH nail polish in an indigo blue colour and brushed random strokes over my nail. Approx 3/4 dots each nail 

3. next I used a second purple/pink colour from RCH and did the same thing again, overlapping the blue dots slightly and filling a few gaps 

4. finally I used a pastel blue polish by sinful colours in the colour "sugar rush" only about 2/3 dots of this colour over the top 

TIPS: 

you can fill the whole nail with dots or leave it so you can still see some white coming through. I preferred the look when you could still see the white but it's purely personal preference.

you can use heavy blobs to get a more dotted look like this: 
(different colours I know) 

or you can use dashes like I did, like this:

(these are the colours mentioned in written steps)

or you can blend it all together using some cling film wrapped over your finger and smudge it like this: 

I used many different colour schemes as you can see and you can mix and match different colours and use whatever you like it will still have a great effect. 

you can use the design on one nail, every other nail or all of them. I decided to paint them all. 



I hope you enjoyed this post! see ya Sunday

Peace Out Losers!

  1. I actually like this idea! For some reason I'm not very fond of the same nail polish colour all through out, so I might just try this x

  2. yeah it gets a bit boring after a while... I sometimes add a clear nail varnish with bits of glitter in over the top of my normal one colour, it jazzes it up a bit :) thanks, I'm glad I helped x
