Here is my newest tutorial, inspired by my new pair of jeans:
Let’s get this tutorial started:
 |
| What you will need: A nude/beige (Revlon’s “Elegant”), a white striper (Sinful Colors’ “Bad Chick”), a light pink (Sinful Colors’ “Vacation Time”), a light green “Sally Hansen: Xtreme Wear’s “Green With Envy”), a dark pink (Sally Hansen: Diamond Strength’s “Fuchsia Bling Bling”), a matte topcoat (NYC’s “Matte Me Crazy”), a large dotting tool, and a needle-nose dotting tool. |
 |
| Paint a solid nude/beige base. |
 |
| Using the white striper (or a thin nail art brush, with white polish), create 3 pinstripes. |
 |
| Using the large end of the dotting tool, dabbing 3-4 times, create a round cloud-like, lumpy, circle (A perfect circle is not what you are trying to create – you don’t want it to be symmetrical, in order to emulate flower petals). |
 |
| Using the small end of your dotting tool, create 2-3 leaves around the rose, using 2-3 dots, in a line or triangle shape. |
 |
|
| Using a needle-nose dotting tool, and your dark pink, draw 4-5 little lines, dots, and “C” shapes, inside of the flower, to create more flower petals. |
 |
| Cover with a thick layer of matte topcoat. Voila! |
 |

I love this look — very vintage 🙂
Thanks so much, Nail Snail!
