dots and ribbons

This is a Minnie mouse inspired nail art, I just changed the red to torquoise for a different look. But at the end of the video you could also see the red one which I made on my cousin’s nails.

No other fruit says summer like the subtly crunchy, thirst quenching watermelon. It is not only great on a hot summer day, but also looks great on your toes!

Nail Art

A lot of our interaction is dependent on out hands and fingers, which has contributed in popularizing manicuring and nail care accessories. Once your nails are manicured, its time to decorate your nails with style.

Nail art primarily refers to the design and color patterns of the nails decorated with. Nail artist use nails as a canvas to explore their creative ideas and enhance the appearance of the nails. Various elements such as gems, beads, glitter, crystals, and prints are used for decorating the nails. 

Nail art tools may be used by professionals or begginers. These tools may be used at the salon or at  home. Fingernails can be styled in a manner of wacky or basic fashions using a variety of nail utensils. The instruments may be highly mechanical or very simple to use, including brushes, pens, stencils, stickers, nail glue, tongs, and air-operated guns. Nail art tools such as stencils are often used to apply  outlines of shapes or characters onto nails. Butterfly, stars, and flowers are the most basic and traditional shapes painted onto nails. Many women choose to get a French manicure with white nail tips, complemented by a singular white shape in the middle of the nail. Adhesive accessories are another form of nail art tools. Nail stickers may be applied onto painted nails using  adhesive. Nail glue is recommended for any 3D nail art, as regular crafting glue can damage the nails. Such stickers can often be peeled off, or rubbed off with nail polish remover. Small jewels such as faux diamonds may also be applied to fingernails. Tiny tongs are used to place these accessories on the nail. Though adhesive is used, consumers should be cautious after applying any protruding object to the nail, for they can easily fall off into food or other unwanted areas. Nail polish pens are nail art tools that have become increasingly popular. These pens are available at department and drug stores. They are sold in a variety of colors by several cosmetics manufacturers. The lacquer pens are composed of the same ingredients found in a regular bottle of nail polish, though the application brush is thinner and pointier. Similar to a gel pen or liquid eyeliner tube, nail polish pens are used for freehand nail art. Patterns and prints can be achieved using these nail art tools. Actual pictures may be hard to paint unless the user is a talented  illustrator. Craft stores and beauty supply stores sell a variety of brushes that can also be used as nail art tools. Brushes of all sizes and angles may be found here, though art brushes should be used with acrylic paint. Nail lacquer causes most brush bristles to harden. Acrylic paints may also be found at craft and beauty stores, though department stores may carry them as well
