6.Pastel Daisies Nail Art Tutorial


Ready to step up your nail art game? This honestly looks so pretty, I’m tempted to try this one out on my nails! I’m weak for anything pastel so this one is straight up my alley as far as nail arts are concerned.

What You Will Need

How To Apply?

  1. Apply a base coat.
  2. Apply the pastel pink polish to all your nails except the ring finger.
  3. Place a gold stud near the cuticle of the index and pinky fingernails. Do this while your polish is still wet. This helps it to stick on. In case you do not have any studs or bindis, you can use gold polish.
  4. Now moving onto the middle and thumb. These two nails will be clad in daisies. Use a dotting tool to create 5 dots in a circle so that it looks like a daisy. If you don’t have a dotting tool, you can use the end of a dotting tool.
  5. Place the gold stud or gold nail polish at the center of the daisies.
  6. Now all that’s left is the ring finger. Apply the gold nail polish as the base, and the glitter polish over that. This gives it a more intense look.
  7. Seal everything with a top coat, and there you go!
