Step by Step DIY(Do It Yourself) Guide
1
Prepare your nails
Start with clean, dry nails.
Push back cuticles gently using a cuticle pusher.
File nails to desired length and shape.
2
Apply base coat
Apply a thin layer of base coat to each nail.
Allow it to dry completely to protect your natural nails.
3
Create the gradient effect
Using the makeup sponge, apply a line of silver glitter polish and then a line of light purple polish.
Dab the sponge onto the pinky nail until the gradient looks smooth.
Repeat on other nails if desired.
4
Paint the base colors
Paint the index and thumb in dark purple polish.
Apply light purple on the middle finger and ring finger.
Allow the base colors to dry fully.
5
Add designs
On the ring finger, use a nail art brush to create a rainbow stripe.
On the middle finger, use gold polish to paint floral designs and add green accents.
Apply nail art gems to accent nails for a touch of elegance.
6
Finish with top coat
Once all designs are dry, apply a top coat to seal the design and add shine.
Ensure to cap the edges of the nails to prevent chipping.
7
Clean up
Use a small brush dipped in nail polish remover to clean any excess polish around the nails.
Make sure the area around the nails is tidy for a professional look.
Pro Tips
Practice the gradient technique on a piece of paper before applying it to your nails.
Use a quick-dry top coat if you're short on time to speed up the drying process.
When using nail art gems, apply a small dot of clear polish underneath to hold them in place.
Don't rush the drying time between layers for the best results.
Experiment with different color combinations for a unique look.
