hi guys so today i will be doing a suit and tie nail tutorial this was inspired from what lily pebbles had on her nails. this design is is super fun and easy to do so here are the easy steps
for this sleek and smart nail tutorial you will need :
A base and top coat- to protect the nails and make the design last longer
sally hansen double duty base and top coat:
this can be used as a top and base and as a top coat it gives your nails a beautiful gel looking shine. but i just use it as a base coat now. it also will also do fine for both and you don't need two.
revlon top speed top coat:
as you may or might not be able to tell it dries your nails super fast. personally i would wait till the nails dry naturally before applying any top coat as you really don't want the black to run into the white not a good look!!
andrea fulerton nail boutique dot and flick nail art pen
this is a two in one product as it has a dotting tool and a nail striper which is great for this tutorial and many others i will post on here. if you do not have a dotter you can use a hair pin or a bobby pin
barry M nail paint in white
i would really suggest investing money into these polishes because they are spectacular for a small price. they are very thick and dry well and don't go gummy while drying so you can paint on top of them.
okay so on with the tutorial
- apply base coat
- paint the nail in a few coats or matt white
3. then make two black lines at the tip of your nail for the suit jacket and fill in either with a black polish or use your dotting tool
4. then make two dots and a third up the make a third with two lines next to it like so
5. draw diagonal lines to the do from each corner or the line
6. then fill in the shape with the dotter
7. and this is it all together
And there you go a suit and tie nail tutorial
I hope you enjoy it and if you want to request any more tutorials tweet me @floramcfly
