Diagonal Flowers

Hey there!

This week's manicure is very subtle and simple. I wanted to use a neutral color and then I decided I  wanted to add flowers. For this look, you will need dotting tools, foil to pour nail polish onto to dip your dotting tools, and three colors of nail polish.

I started with a base coat of OPI start to finish formaldehyde free formula. I then followed with two coats of Sei Bella Vintage Mauve. Once dry, I used a dotting tool (small sized for my pinky fingers, medium sized for all the rest and a little bigger sized for my thumbs) and in the upper left corner of the nail, I placed five dots in a circle, so that it leaves a space in the middle and it looks like a flower. I did the first flower in Sei Bella Coral Fantasy. I then did the second flower in Sei Bella Pink Sherbet and placed it in the center of the nail. I then did the third flower again in Sei Bella Coral Fantasy and placed it in the bottom right corner of the nail. I alternated the color pattern on every other nail. On one nail it was, coral, pink, coral and on the other it was, pink, coral, pink. Once completely dry, I sealed it with a fast drying top coat of INM Out the Door.

Finished!

I wish my camera took better quality photos, you can barely see the pink flowers! If you look at the second photo a little closer, you can see the detail of the flower. Before I made the flowers on my nails, I practiced on the foil and that helped. It's not too bad. I like how it turned out. It's simple and cute. Hope you enjoyed this look and I will see you next time!
