Step 1 of 12

Start off with a nude base coat

Step 2 of 12

Take a Striper and dip it in black polish

Step 3 of 12

Make two parallel lines, they don't have to be perfect, let your brush guide, because we are going for a natural type look

Step 4 of 12

Take a dotting tool and dip into a deep red polish

Step 5 of 12

Add two dots beside each other

Step 6 of 12

Add a third one on top of the first two dots.

Step 7 of 12

You can add a white, or yellow middle, I don't have any white or yellow polish on hand so I used a gold steel bead. You can buy them on eBay, or any craft store.

Step 8 of 12

Add a couple more flowers.

Step 9 of 12

For a simple elegant look wear this on just one or two fingers, and leave the other ones nude.

Step 10 of 12

After.

Step 11 of 12

Add top coat

Step 12 of 12

Maybe wear these to a Hibachi Grill for date night, or maybe go get some sushi 🍣🍱

You're Done

Oh I know it's just constructive advice :) it's always welcome. I used to do them on wheels bc my nails have always suffered from dry skin (acetone makes it worse) but I completely understand

You seriously have a beautiful talent and I don't want to distract from that at all! Ill try adding Biotin next time thanks.

Vanessa Powell 7 months ago

Thank you :) I really do need to take care of them better. Biotin and Vaseline is a great combo :)

* Dab of Vaseline on each cuticle

Vanessa Powell 7 months ago

I get terribly dry hands and cuticles when I don't have my acrylics on. A quick tip if you don't mind my saying is put a nice size Dab on each cuticle apply latex gloves and mittens on top or warm towel and leave it while you watch you fav tv show. Also a few drops of oil in your hand soap helps too.

Vanessa Powell 7 months ago

Lol, I know my cuticles are terrible. I work in Acetone all day, and prefer not to wear gloves.

FabuloCity By Jessica (author) 7 months ago

This is gorgeous! But we have got to get some Vaseline on those cuticles girlfriend.

I'm sorry I never saw your comment before. A nude can be a color that matches your skin tone. Like a tanish white. My shine tone has a very pink undertone, so I can't pull off a nude without it looking different, I assure it is nude, but use any color that you like ^_^

Ok 😃😃😃 nice to talk to you
