Easy Nail Art - purple dots

I love simple nail designs. Mainly because I haven't got the time or skill (as of yet! I'll get it one day ;3) to do anything difficult on my nails. I recently bought nail art brushes, and I wanted to try out the dotting tool (easier to clean than a brush, lazy old me didn't fancy cleaning at this time of night) it's soo tiny I wanted to see how well it would do. It was also the first time using acrylic paint on my nails - not too bad for a first attempt, but I do want to use nail varnish sometime, as acrylic dries really quick.

Here's the brand of acrylic paint that I used. If you live in the UK it's super cheap for the pack, around £2.99? Any acrylic paint will do, I don't think this kind of paint is expensive anywhere.





Nail varnishes and tools:
- Avon revitacool base coat
- Sally Hansen Hard as Nails ( in White Tip)
- Sally Hansen Insta-Dri top coat
- Violet acrylic paint
- Dotting tool from nail brush set (from Ebay, just look for the 15 brush set with brushes that all have white handles. It's also one of the cheapest sets on Ebay, so it's not too hard to find.  )





Super easy! Complete beginner's nail art.






Here's a 6 step quickie guide:
1. Apply base coat, wait till dry.
2. Apply white nail polish, wait till completely dry. (Make sure it's dry, otherwise smudging will ruin it.)
3. Squirt a small amount of paint out and take the dotting tool. Try making a few practice dots on a spare surface.
4. Once you get the hang of making dots on the spare surface, make some on your nails in a line. (If you mess up, the paint does tend to stain the nail. Wipe off the paint with a tissue or cotton bud/pad then you can add a thin layer of white nail varnish to cover the staining.)
5. When all nails are done, wait for the paint to dry.
6. Apply top coat, wait till all nails are dry.

And you're done! Hope this was fun to do, practice makes perfect guys, and trust me, I messed up a lot. x3
