Step-by-Step Instructions
Materials Needed:
- Base coat
- White nail polish
- Pink nail polish
- Black nail polish
- Fine nail art brush (No. 1 or No. 2)
- Dotting tool
- Top coat
- Nail polish remover
- Cotton pads
- Small paint palette or foil (for mixing colors)
- Makeup sponge
Steps:
- Prepare Your Nails:
- Ensure your nails are clean and dry.
- Apply a base coat to protect your nails and provide a smooth surface for the polish.
- Create the Gradient Background:
- Apply white nail polish as the base color and let it dry completely.
- On a small palette or foil, mix pink and white nail polish to create a gradient effect.
- Using a makeup sponge, gently dab the gradient mixture onto your nails, starting from the cuticle and blending towards the tip. Repeat until you achieve the desired opacity and blend. Allow it to dry.
- Draw the Furry Friends:
- Using a fine nail art brush (No. 1 or No. 2) dipped in black nail polish, carefully outline the shape of the furry friends on the middle finger. Start with a round body and add small, uneven strokes around the edges to create a furry effect.
- Use the same brush to add the legs and arms, making sure they look fluffy and cute.
- Add the Eyes:
- Using a dotting tool, create two large dots with white nail polish for the eyes. Let them dry.
- Once dry, add two smaller black dots within the white dots to create pupils. Leave a tiny white dot in each black dot for added sparkle.
- Detailing and Finishing Touches:
- If desired, add a tiny pink dot for the creature’s nose and small lines for a smile using the fine nail art brush.
- Apply a layer of top coat to seal in your design and give it a glossy finish.
- Clean Up:
- Dip a clean brush or cotton swab in nail polish remover and carefully clean any excess polish around your nails.
