Step by Step DIY(Do It Yourself) Guide
1
Prepare the nails.

2
Paint the base colors.

- Apply green polish on adjacent nails and let it dry.
- Use dark blue on the remaining nails and let it dry.
3
Create swirls and patterns.
- Using a nail art brush, dip into the green polish and create swirling patterns on the red nails.
- On the green nails, use gold polish to create accent lines.
- Blend a bit of white into the green for added texture if desired.

Add snowflakes.

- On other nails, place snowflakes using white or gold polish as accents.

Finish with a top coat.
- Once all designs are dry, apply a top coat to seal everything.

- Allow the top coat to dry completely.
Pro Tips
Use thin layers of polish for quicker drying and better control.
Practice the swirling technique on a practice nail or piece of paper first.
Don’t rush the drying process to avoid smudging designs.
Try using tape to create clean lines for more defined patterns.
