Floral Nail Art

I haven't done any nail art in a while, but judging by the amount of nail related products I received for Christmas, I feel like I would be cheating everyone if I didn't immediately get back into it!

I'm starting of January with Navy floral print nails, which are really easy to do but look a bit more quirky compared to your average leopard print art.

I started off by painting a base coat of Nails Inc Basil Street, then going over it with Nails Inc Motcomb Street. As the Navy Motcomb Street is really dark and thick, I only needed one coat.

 I then used the Blue nail art pen from this kit I got for Christmas to draw little open triangles all over my nails. The floral print needs to look like a pattern, so don't be afraid to draw randomly all over the nail, and ensure that you draw a few near the edges so it looks like it would carry on.

If you are just starting to use a nail pen and don't feel completely comfortable using it to draw yet, an easy way to get started is to draw tiny dots instead of a whole line.

After the Blue open triangles were dry, I filled in their centres with small Green dots. This forms the flower.

 To get rid of the tiny mistakes and spillages on my finger around the nail I used this nail polish removal pen. This was also a Christmas present but I have since seen them on eBay here.
