1
Prepare Your Nails
- File your nails to your desired shape and length.
- Gently push back your cuticles and buff the nail surface.
- Clean your nails with nail polish remover to remove any oils.
- Apply a thin layer of base coat and let it dry completely.
2
Apply Base Color
- Apply 2-3 thin coats of light nude or pastel pink nail polish to all nails, allowing each coat to dry fully before applying the next.
3
Create Floral Outlines
- Using a thin nail art brush and black or dark brown nail polish, paint the outlines of flowers and leaves.
- You can either freehand the designs or use a nail art stamper if you have floral stamping plates.
4
Fill in the Flowers and Leaves

- Use a fine nail art brush or dotting tool for precision.
- Fill in the leaves with green nail polish, using different shades if desired.

Add Gold Accents

Apply Top Coat

Pro Tips
For beginners, consider using nail art stickers or stamps to achieve the floral design if freehand painting is difficult.
Use a light hand when applying the base color to avoid streaks and ensure even coverage.
Clean your nail art brushes frequently with nail polish remover to prevent the polish from drying and ruining the bristles.
Allow each layer of polish to dry completely before adding the next to prevent smudging and ensure a smooth finish.
Consider using quick-drying top coat to reduce the drying time and protect your design from chipping.
