Can't get enough dots? Like I said in the last post, this is one of my favorite. I started off with Sally Hansen's White Tip, then took Sinful Colors Beautiful Girl and made dots vertically in the middle of my nail trying to make the dots evenly apart. That alone is cute enough.
Then I continued making dots on both sides of the pink with Sally Hansen's Lively Lilac and finished off the ends with another row of pink and there you go! If you don't have a dotting tool, easiest thing, you can use a tooth pick or other objects with pointed ends. Of course you don't have to use pink and purple. You can use any color combination you want. You can do green and blue or yellow and orange. Hope you guys like it!

Vertical Strips with Dots
Hello people. At the rate I'm going, I'm probably going to do one post per month which sucks. Anyways, starting off June. I have strips on half my nail and added dots to the bottom of the strips. I started off painting only half of my nail diagonally with China Glaze Light As Air which I borrowed from a dear friend. Thank you friend! I don't know if you could tell in the picture but Light As Air is a very light lilac color. I took many pictures and it either turned out looking light blue or pink, never a shade of purple. Once that dried, I took my black Art Club Nail Art polish with its thin brush to make the lines. I tried making it evenly spread out and it takes a pretty steady hand to make the lines straight. Then with a medium dotting tool, I put black dots below the straights kind of finishing off the design. It looked weird with just lines especially since its only half the nail. Finish off with a clear coat and you're set!

Prom Nails
I was suppose to post this blog a month ago, but I've been lagging. So since this is the time when prom happens and I just wanted to share what nail design I had when I went to prom. My dress was white with some gold details. Being me, I wanted something really simple and something that would match my dress. Nothing too fancy. Using Sally Hansen's White Tip, I did a french tip then using L.A. Colors Art Deco Gold lined the bottom of the tip and there you go!

Watermelon Nails
Eeks.. I haven't been getting any inspirations lately, but I did with watermelons when I saw my friend eating them. I thought "Wow, that watermelon looks disgusting but would be a cute nail design." So here is my horrible attempt at doing a watermelon nail design. I don't think it's that bad.. it's just not perfect.
After putting a base coat, I started off the design with painting the bottom half of my nail with L.A. Girl's Jade and if you noticed, watermelons usually have stripes, so by making the striped, I dipped a tiny painting brush into Sally Hansen's Green With Envy and dabbed my nail with it, making sure I did it in a messy line. I then painted 1/3 of the nail with Sinful Colors Beautiful Girl and tried to make the pale white part of the watermelon with Sally Hansen's Sweet Tulip. Once the Beautiful Girl dried, I used one of my dotting tools to make the seeds with Rimmel Black Satin. These were the closest colors I had to a watermelon. Cute from far away, but not too bad close up haha.

Circled Dots
To the left is the design I did today. Its different colored dots that are in circles. For this design, the polishes I used were SpaRitual's Regal Creme which, it may look black in the picture, is a dark purple for the background. You really have to see it in person to see the dark purple. For the different colored circles, I used Sally Hansen's Sun Kissed and L.A. Girl's Turquoise. To make these dots, I used a dotting tool, but if you don't have one, you can use a toothpick or anything with a small rounded tip. For the background on the ring finger, I used N.Y.C.'s Taxi Yellow Creme and to finish the look I used a clear top coat. Now you don't have to use the exact same colors I did, you can use any color you like. You can even make all the circled dots the same color or use more colors. It's all about having fun, so be creative! It's really simple to do and it's really cute!

Cheetah Nails
Hello! The nail design I did was the cheetah print. I know there are hundreds of cheetah designs out there sooo to make this one a bit different, it's quite colorful. As the background I used Sally Hansen's Lilac. I don't know if you can tell in the picture, but the color of the Lilac looks pink with a touch of really light purple. The Lilac dried after 5 minutes, so using Sally Hansen's Blue Me Away, Lively Lilac, and Sun Kissed, L.A. Color's Art Deco Pink and Love & Beauty Mint, I put blots of the different colors randomly on all my nails and they dried fairly quickly. Since the Love & Beauty black that I have is a pen and brush, I used the pen part and there is a picture of it below of just the pen. So using the pen, I outlined the colored blots differently. Some with different C's, some long C's, some full C's and some that are outlined all around. Topped the whole thing off with a top coat that I've been using in all nail designs. Hope you guys like it!
