Ello peeps!:)
This post is gonna teach you how to do nail art :)
This is my VERY FIRST tutorial post so it kinda sucks a bit, I apologize!
Anyway, here goes.
I'm gonna teach you how to do this design:
Ignore the device and focus on the design xD
It's a very simple design, but I think it's very pretty and cute and you won't need any professional nail art tools :)
You will need:
Nailpolishes :)
I'm using:
1) 17 Nail Xtras: Double Gloss Top Coat
2) Etude House Nail Polish in VIP Girl Color GR605
3) Natural Collection Nail Tip Whitener
4) Bihun in Color No.6311
5) Some Q Tips for cleaning the sides (optional)
*I kinda skipped the base coat (which is sorta important) but base coat can be included.
A toothpick or a kebab stick, or a wooden skewer :)
A bobby pin like this:
*You'll wanna get the ones with a round tip :)
Now let's begin.
Start by applying a base coat. NOTE: I did something wrong! I used the top coat as my base coat, but both works fine :P
But use a base coat nail polish for this!!
Next, I painted my nails with my Etude House VIP Girl in GR605 nail-polish. You don't have to use the same color with me, you can choose any sort of blue or maybe purple or pink color. Any color you think would go well with the Hawaiian Flower. I think my VIP Girl nail-polish color looked very well with the hawaiian flower, it's a hawaiian color too (come to think of it :)) It's sort of a turquoise greenish blueish color :)
Use a Q Tip and apply some nail-polish remover on it and gently clean the sides of your fingers.
Up-close :)
Let it be completely dry and then we're gonna move on to making the flower pattern
I dipped some of my white nailpolish on to the end of my bobby pin.
And I dotted 4 white dots on to my nail. These white dots are the petals of the flower, you can add to them, the more white dots, the more petals your flower is going to have.
Next, white the petals are still watery ( do not wait till it dries), grab your wooden skewer or toothpick and stroke from the middle of your dot to the center of the flower. That will form the design on the flower. Honestly, I think it looks complete the way it is now but for the finishing touch which can be optional, I'm gonna add a red dot to the middle of the flower.
Lastly, using my red nail-polish. I'm going to clean the tip of my bobby pin (or use a new one) and brush or dip the red nail-polish on to the end of the bobby pin. Dot the center of your flower and it's DONE :D
