Step by Step DIY(Do It Yourself) Guide
1
Prepare Your Nails
File your nails to your desired shape.
Gently push back your cuticles and trim any excess cuticle skin.
Buff the surface of your nails lightly to create a smooth base.
Apply a base coat to protect your natural nails and let it dry completely.
2
Apply Base Colors
On some nails, apply two coats of white nail polish, allowing each coat to dry fully before applying the next.
On the remaining nails, apply two coats of silver glitter nail polish, ensuring even coverage and letting each coat dry.
3
Create Floral Designs
Using a fine detail brush, paint floral designs onto the nails with the white base.
Start with the stem and leaves using black or a dark green.
Add flower petals using pink and purple nail polish.
You can use a dotting tool or a toothpick to create small details within the flowers.
4
Add Floral Designs on Glitter Base
On the nails with the silver glitter base, paint similar floral designs as on the white nails but ensure that flower color compliments the glitter base.
Adjust the size of the flowers according to the nail size and space available.
5
Clean Up and Finish
Use a small brush dipped in nail polish remover to clean up any mistakes or polish on your skin.
Once the design is completely dry, apply a generous layer of top coat to seal the design and add shine.
Allow the top coat to dry completely.
Pro Tips
For beginners, consider using nail art stickers or stamps to achieve precise floral designs.
Allow each layer of polish to dry completely to prevent smudging and ensure longevity of the design.
Use a thin brush for the floral designs to create fine lines and details.
Practice the floral design on a piece of paper before applying it to your nails to get comfortable with the technique.
Apply cuticle oil after the manicure to keep your cuticles moisturized and healthy.
