  • How to paint patterned nail art. Block Colors Nail Design - Step 1
    Step 1

    Ok so these are the things I used (from left to right)

    -Its from claire's cosmetics and it doesn't have a name but its just normal yellow

    -Same here! Its just ordinary purple.

    -Paradise Blue from Mavala

    -From maybelline but doesn't have a name! (again)

    - You're the one from essence color & go

    -Nail polish Remover

    -That pencil thingy there is just a dress maker's pin stuck onto the eraser end of a pencil that I use as a dotting tool

    -A plastic lid I use for blobbing polish on but you can just use a peice of paper or post-it note or something.

    Step 2

    Ok so take your first colour and start by making just an abnormal shape! You can make it as crazy as you want or as simple as you want,your choice!

    (If you mess up you can always dip a Qtip in nail polish remover and remove any mistakes)

    Step 3

    Do the same with your other colours and you'll end up with this. You don't have to use all your colours. As you can see I only used like three there <----

    Step 4

    Now with your nail art pen or white polish with extremely small dotting tool or if you're extremely patient and wanna use a tootpick, outline the shapes you just made with small white dots.

    Step 5

    You're pretty much done now but if you wanna add a bit of flare you can choose a finger like your ring finger or thumb (I chose thumb!) and add dots with a medium dotting tool inside the shapes. But don't over load!

    Ok now wait about 10-20 mins to make sure your nail polish is dry and top your design off with a coat of top coat! (lol)

  • Step 6

    If you want to add extra glam you can outline your shapes with a thin black nail polish or put on a coat of glitter on top of your design to make it shine!

    Enjoy your nail art!
