You must be thinking... this trend-ish girl changes her nail polish like twice a week or what? Well... yes! I just get so fussy when they start cracking on the edges after 2 or 3 days. I have seen lots of manicures with polka dots and I had to try it for two reasons: I like doing cute things to my nails and I LOVE polka dots! This time I used two of my fave brands for nail polish: Bettina and Avon. Both are so creamy and lasting.
The following steps will help you select the perfect color to polka dot your nails:
The following steps will help you select the perfect color to polka dot your nails:
1. apply a solid color (2 hands) - I used brown this time
2. on a sheet of paper spread the nail polish you just applied (2 hands also)
and let it dry
3. select a few color you would like to use for the polka dots
to see which one is the better match and let them dry
I selected the light blue cause it was the one that gave a pop of color to the dark brown shade.

I like the polka dots on just one nail - it looks cute! I don't know how you did the polka dots but I always use the end of a bobby pin - then the circles are perfect!
ResponderBorrarthanks for the idea sherri!! I used the same brush from the nail polish.. will try the bobby pin next time ;)
ResponderBorrarAww, your nails look lovely! <3 I love extra decorating just one nail!

This is so cute! My nails always look hideous. lol Even when I take the time to polish them (like once in a blue moon), they chip a day or two later and I don't take the chipped polish off for like months! Haha!
ResponderBorrarI love it <3

I love enhancing my nails with polka dots! Sometimes I do it on all of them, and sometimes I just do it on two of them (one on each hand). It's such a cute, girly way to fancy them up!
