Mod Polka-Dot Hello Kitty Nails...

This one is a bit late but I'm so in love with my design...
So if you wanna know how I went about it, here it is step by step:

STEP 1:  Dot random circles in black on ring finger and thumb. Make them all diffferent sizes.

STEP 2:  Once dry dot inside the black spots with any color of your choice. I used white "WHITE CANVAS" by Milani and a bright lime green. I used "INNOCENT" by Sinful Colors.

STEP 3:  Repeat STEP 2 as often as needed to obtain desired look.  The objective is to make your nails look like a late 60's Mod pattern...


STEP 4:  Paint remaining three fingers with desired color.  I used a light pink that I mixed myself using "REVLON RED" by Revlon of course and a white, "WHITE CANVAS" by Milani.

STEP 5:  Once dry,  seal with topcoat of your choice. You can clean up edges with a cotton swab dipped in nailpolish remover. I usually don't though...nail polish on skin usually comes off really well with some soaking or after a shower.
Now the next part is a bit more dificult. You can stop at STEP 5 if you wanted to. I think its pretty cute like just that. But I can never let simple be simple enough so I painted on two little Hello Kitty faces on my nails.

A simple way to paint little character designs is to first paint them onto a zip baggie. Let them dry completely then peel them off like little stickers and apply them to your nails with a good topcoat.
Then you are DONE!


I hope you all enjoy. Be creative this design allows it.  Until next time...

XOXO
PEACE, LOVE, AND NAILPOLISH ;)
