For this first design, its simply a matter of having a steady hand in order to get the dots small, evenly spaced and in a straight line. I find dotting just under half of your nail adds charm.

My index finger is a really simple flower. One big yellow dot, surrounded by pink enlongated dots for petals. You could do more than just one flower if you have room.... And patience!!

And last but not least, my favourite. The dotted heart! Again, not a difficult one just keep the hand steady and you're laughing!! You could continue with the heart shadow to fill the whole nail.

To add a bit of sparkle to my ring finger I've added some yellow and pink love hearts. These are optional and could be any shape or colour! But for me and my perfectionist OCD mine had to match!

Finally. Clean any unwanted varnish off with a cotton bud and some nail varnish remover and add a clear top coat when everything is completely dry!

They are nail art pens hun. They come with a pull off lid which exposes the pin nib, and they also unscrew with the lid on to reveal the brush. They're made by pink tease. You could try searching that. 😊
