Step by Step DIY(Do It Yourself) Guide
1
Prepare your nails.
- File and shape your nails to your desired length.
- Buff the surface of your nails to make them smooth.
- Apply a base coat to protect your natural nails.
2
Create the gradient effect.
- Take a makeup sponge and paint a line of pastel blue and pastel pink nail polish side by side.
- Dab the sponge onto your nails to transfer the colors, blending them together.
- Repeat until you achieve the desired gradient intensity.
3
Apply the holographic glitter.
- Once the gradient is dry, apply a coat of holographic glitter polish from the tips down.
- Ensure even coverage for that sparkling effect.
4
Add the pink dots.
- Use a dotting tool and the bright pink nail polish to create dots on each nail.
- Vary the size and position of the dots for a playful look.
5
Finish with a top coat.
- Once all the designs are dry, apply a top coat to seal everything and add shine.
- Allow adequate drying time to prevent smudging.
