Step by Step DIY(Do It Yourself) Guide
1
Prepare the nails.
- File the edges of your nails to your desired shape.
- Gently push back the cuticles using a cuticle pusher.
- Buff the surface of the nails lightly to create a smooth canvas.
- Apply a base coat to protect your nails and enhance polish adhesion.
2
Apply the base color.
- Apply a coat of mint green nail polish to each nail.
- Allow the base coat to dry completely before applying a second coat for coverage.
3
Create floral designs.
- Using a fine detail brush, dip into the white polish and paint small daisy shapes on selected nails.
- Add a tiny dot in the center of each flower using the dotting tool dipped in yellow or gold polish.
- For added detail, use the gold polish to create thin lines or swirls around the flowers.
4
Add polka dots.
- Use the dotting tool dipped in white polish to create small dots on the other nails.
- Ensure the dots are evenly spaced and vary slightly in size for a casual look.
5
Finish with a top coat.
- Once all designs are dried, apply a clear top coat over all nails to seal and protect the design.
- Allow the top coat to dry thoroughly.
Pro Tips
Always allow each layer of polish to dry completely before moving to the next step to avoid smudging.
Practice the flower design on a piece of paper before applying it to your nails to build confidence.
Use tape to protect your cuticles if you are worried about getting polish on your skin.
Keep a small brush handy for quick touch-ups for any mistakes or details.
