Some Tips to Remember Before We Start!
Mess-free nail art: Apply petroleum jelly/lotion around the cuticle area or commercially available nail polish barrier for mess-free application.
Prep your nail: Prep your nail before cleaning, and trim down any rough area on the nail and around the cuticle for a smooth, finer polish coating.
Nail tools: You can easily buy a set of multiple brushes, stencils, stamps, stickers, and other tools anywhere for quick and easy application of nail art design.
1. Floral pattern
● Put, any nail base color will pop out other shades of flower design more.
● Then, for better detail, use a thin nail brush or basic dotting tools to draw floral petals on the background color easily.
● Use your artistic skills for placement and drawing flowers of different sizes to make them more intricate.
● Add leaves or other elements to make it more realistic.
● Finally, when you are satisfied with your art, use a top coat for shine and longevity.
2. Simple Polka Dot Design
● First, you have to apply any solid color base of your liking. If you are applying a lighter background color, then the dot should be of darker shades, and vice versa.
● Then, take your dotting tool of different sizes. You can create polka dot designs easily.
● With these tools, the mandala pattern can also be made with a few nails on it, while the remaining coat has a plain base color and a colorful geometric design.
● Now seal it with a top glossy coat, and your funky nail art is done.
3. Glitter Bomb
● Choose any darker color paint, like maroon or black, for the background color.Then, grab tape or paste it on top of the background color in any geometrical shape.
● After that, paint the area of the nail that is not covered with tape completely with glitter nail polish.
● After a few minutes, when the nail paint is dry, carefully remove the tape.
● Apply the top coat, and you will have a sparkly, glittery pattern within minutes.
4. Water Bowl Method
If you love the marbling design but need help to do it using tools, then we've got you covered.
● Just fill any bowl with water, then drop different colors of nail paint in its center one by one.
● When you are satisfied with your pattern, take a toothpick and mix this drop to create a marbling effect.
● Then, dip your finger vertically in it, and you will get a beautiful marble effect.
● Repeat the same process each time for every nail from the start, and you will get a unique marble design on every nail.
● Remove any excess marble pattern around the cuticle, and you are good to go.
5. Ever Green French Tips
● Opt for any nude nail paint for the base, apply two even coats of it, and let it dry.

● Fill up any gaps or mistakes, and use a top coat to secure your final artwork.
6. Nail Stickers
