I started with a simple base coat, I then created a dotting design with four polishes- We'll always have Paris, Parlez Vous OPI, Grey Elle, Shanghai Shimmer.

Once it was dry I recreated a graffiti type of design on top with OPI Alpine Snow. Link to youtube tutorial here.
Basically you let a small blob of nail polish to semi dry so it becomes tacky, you then use a tool (dotting tool) to pull the polish across your nail.
I found it to be a pretty hard technique to master, but I think I did ok for my first go at it!
I finished the look with OPI topcoat.
What a creative design! Love the colours that you used for the dots, they go together really well :) Looks like it would be quite fun to play around with your own designs.
ReplyDeletesuper cool, and very creative!
ReplyDeleteI think these are great... Could you do both hands easily?
ReplyDeleteIt was a much harder to do the other hand, but i guess practice makes perfect! You should give it a try! x
DeleteAwesome look! I really want to try this! Just to let you know (in case you didn't already) I have to fill out a word verification if I want to post a comment on your blog. All google blogs do this unless you turn it off. It would make it easier to comment if you turned it off :)
ReplyDeleteThat's beautiful nail art! I like it! xx
