Step by Step DIY(Do It Yourself) Guide
1
Prepare your nails
- File and shape your nails to your desired length.
- Buffer the surface of your nails for a smooth finish.
- Apply cuticle oil to soften cuticles before pushing them back.
- Finish with a base coat to protect your natural nails.
2
Create the gradient effect
- Apply a coat of pastel pink nail polish on the base of your nails.
- Then, using a sponge, dab on mint green nail polish starting from the tips to create a gradient.
- Blend the colors to achieve a seamless transition, and allow to dry.
- Seal the gradient with a top coat for shine.
3
Add glitter and embellishments
- Apply a coat of silver glitter polish on selected nails.
- While the glitter polish is still wet, gently place 3D flowers and gems onto the nail.
- For extra hold, use a small dot of nail glue for each embellishment.
- Finish with a top coat on all nails to encapsulate the design and add shine.
4
Cleanup and finalize the design
- Use a fine brush dipped in nail polish remover to clean up any excess polish around the cuticles.
- Apply a final layer of top coat to assure durability and shine.
- Let your nails dry completely before using your hands again.
Pro Tips
Practice the gradient technique on paper or a nail wheel before applying it to your nails.
Use a quick-dry top coat to speed up the drying process and avoid smudges.
If you're new to nail art, start with fewer embellishments and gradually add more as you become confident.
Be cautious with nail glue; a little goes a long way, and it’s best to apply only to the base of the embellishments.
