Step by Step DIY(Do It Yourself) Guide
1
Prepare the nails for painting.
- Use a nail file to shape your nails.
- Gently push back cuticles with a cuticle pusher.
- Buff the nail surface to smooth out imperfections.
2
Apply base coat.
- Apply a thin layer of base coat to each nail.
- Allow the base coat to dry completely.
3
Paint the base color.
- Apply two coats of yellow nail polish, allowing each coat to dry.
- Finish with a quick-dry top coat for a shiny finish.
4
Create patterns with black polish.
- Use a dotting tool to add black dots randomly on some nails.
- Use a nail art brush to paint floral shapes or lines as accents.
5
Add gold embellishments.
- Apply gold glitter polish to the tips of the nails or as desired.
- Optionally, use striping tape to create additional patterns.
6
Finish with top coat.
- Once all designs are dry, apply a top coat to seal the design.
- Ensure coverage over all nail surfaces to prolong wear.
7
Clean up any excess polish.
- Use a cotton pad soaked in acetone to clean around the edges of your nails.
- Ensure nothing is smudged or left on the skin.
Pro Tips
Always allow each layer to dry completely before applying the next.
If you're new to nail art, practice designs on a piece of paper before trying on your nails.
Using a quick-dry top coat can significantly reduce waiting time between steps.
Consider using a matte top coat for a trendy finish instead of a glossy one.
