Hey guys!! I'm Sarah and this is my very first blog post so I am super excited :) I will be doing a lot of nail tutorials when I post every Sunday, although I will also do different makeup techniques, home remedies and anything fashion related. For my first nail tutorial I decided to do a fun summer mani that's easy to do and looks super cute.
What you will need:
-Cuticle Pusher
-2 Nail Polish Colours
-Dotting Tool*
-Clear Coat
Step 1) First things first: make those cuticles purrrttyyy :) Push them back until they are not noticeable to achieve a better end result. It isn't necessary but will sure look nice! After that, apply a thin layer of clear coat to each nail. I used nails inc. Flawless Base Coat from Sephora, although any type will work.
Step 2) After your nails dry, it's time to add a splash of colour! This works best if your nail is filed more in a square versus almond shape. On your left hand, begin from the bottom left corner of each nail and draw a line to the top right hand corner. I used Rue Beauty Jade nail polish. After you fill each one in, it should look like a sideways triangle. Do it the opposite way on the right hand. If you are like me, you will need LOTS of Q-tips and nail polish remover especially on your right hand because lets face it, the left may look like a million bucks but the right hand somehow always turns out like a two year old with colouring issues painted it.
Step 3) Now for the fun part! Time to add those polka dots like you're tryin' out for 101 Dalmatians! Apply a small amount of the other nail polish colour (I used Maybelline's Color Show Coral Glow) to the little end of the dotting tool. *If you don't have a dotting tool, you can DIY one by using a pin head and sticking the pointy end in the eraser of a pencil, like done in the pic to the left. On the left hand, make dots the opposite way you made the triangles. Start from the bottom right hand corner and make a row of dots to the top left corner. Make enough rows on your nail until there isn't any more room. Do the opposite direction on the other hand. Finish with a top coat.
Now you have cute and funky summer nails perfect for any event! I love this tutorial because you can achieve different looks and styles just by changing the colours :)
I hope you guys enjoyed this tutorial! Let me know what you think by commenting below! If you have any suggestions for other tutorials, remedies, fashion posts, or product reviews just let me know and I would be more than happy to try them and post how it went. Thanks for reading and I will post again next Sunday :)
