This is such a cute design which you can wear on all of your nails or just on one. If you do want to wear it just on one, you could wear a plain colour on the rest of your nails or you could paint it block white with black polka dots.
What you will need:
1. Base coat.
2. Top coat - I used Collection Lasting Colour in the colour 2 Ice Cube.
3. Black nail varnish - I used Boudoir Beauty in the colour Black Satin.
4. White nail varnish - I used Collection 5 day wear in the colour 103 French White
5. A small and 'tiny' dotter. I have used a double ended one here with small on one side and a 'tiny' on the other. I got this from Amazon in a set of 5.
6. 2 striper brushes. Here I have used the brushes from my white and black stripers in ordinary polish because my white and black stripers have run out.
Step 1:
Apply a base coat over the whole nail.
Allow it to dry completely.
Step 2:
About two thirds of the way up the nail, draw two diagonal lines on each side.
Join these two lines with a curved line.
Round off the corners of the nail with a black polish. If you don't want to do this then you can file your nail into a round shape.
Move straight on to the next step.
Step 3:
Fill in with the white polish. To do this you can either use the brush from the polish or the striper brush. I used the brush from the polish to do this.
Allow to dry completely.
Step 4:
Draw two small dots as eyes and a smaller one underneath for a nose. You can use the same dotter to do this but, to get a smaller dot, apply less pressure.
Move straight on to the next step.
Step 5:
Using the tiny dotter, draw a line with 2 curves at the end underneath the nose for the mouth.
Move straight on to the next step.
Step 6:
Use a black striper and press against the nail. Apply pressure and flick the brush away from the nose which gives a 'whisker' look.
Allow the whole nail to dry completely.
Step 7:
Add a generous top coat over the whole nail.
Leave to dry completely.
How to wear:
You could wear this design on all of your nails or on just one. If you do wear it on just one, you can wear the rest of your nails painted white with black polka dots. Like this:
