Pretty Polka Dots, Valentines Nail Tutorial.

Here is an easy step by step guide on how to get a cute polka dot nail ready for Valentines Day or any other day really.

 Its so versatile and easy even I can do it!!

First File your nails. I always leave my old polish on to do this, its supposed to keep your nails from becoming too damaged. Also it is easier to see what shape you are creating

Next Remove all nail polish.

Next to push back the cuticles. I Use Sally Hanson Gel Cutical Remover

And then Push back with an orange stick.

Next Avon 24K gold strength Base coat

MUA Plum Noir

Apply a thin coat to all nails except the ring finger and allow to dry.

Then apply a 2nd coat and third if necessary.

Next select your accent colour.

Again, apply as many coats as required and allow to dry between.

This Pink polish is Sizzler By Barbara Daily for Tesco.

Next put a blob of Plum Noir on a piece of scrap paper.

Use the point of an orange stick or a dotting tool,

...to apply polka dots, randomly, over the accent nail.

Repeat on the other hand.

Allow to dry.

As you can tell I am not the neatest nail painter. A cotton bud dipped in nail polish remover,can clean up and messy smudges.

Next select a Top coat. Disco Tech by Miss Sporty is nice. It leaves a great shine and is a bargain.

Paint the tips of your fingernail to avoid chipping.

Et Voila 

What nails will you be sporting this Valentines day?

Lots of Love xxx
