Nail Art 8: Lady Bug

November 18, 2011

Tried making lady bugs = Fail! The red polish I used was too dark when i put on a second coat 😦 But I decided it to keep it anyways since it took me 2 hours to make this. Haha. So many flaws on this one.

What you need:

• Red Nail Polish (Choose the brightest shade of red)
• Black Nail Polish
• Black Nail Art Polish (the one with the thin brush)
• White Nail Polish
• Dotting Tool (anything with small round tip)
• Paper
• Base Coat
• Top Coat

What to do:

1. Put on a base coat. Cover your entire nail with red polish.
2. Using the black nail art polish, draw a straight line at the center of your nail. Then make the black tip of the nail, slightly thicker than french tips.
3. Prepare your dotting kit (paper, dotting tool and polish), then create dots for the eyes and body.
4. Apply top coat.

That’s it! You have your lady bug nails! Don’t forget to choose a brighter red color so your nails won’t end up like mine (so dark! Huhu.). Anyway, I hope you still like this one (for the effort, haha). Have you tried other versions of this design? Let me see!

My laziest nail art of all. Took me just 10 minutes to make this, compared to my usual 3hrs nail art.

What you need:

• Base Coat
• Top Coat

How to do it:

1. Apply the base coat. Then cover your entire nail with black polish.
2. Add Dots using the white one then apply the top coat.

Easy peezy! You can try to mix and match other colors too!
