Have you ever had your
nails done by a salon and thought, "I can do that"? Many of us admire Nail art designs but are scared to do it on our own nails because we think it is a complex art. If you enjoy experimenting with fingernail designs, here are fun examples to try this year!
1. Free-Hand Nail Painting
If you have a steady hand and Revlon Nail Art Expressionist enamel, this nautical look is easy to do and perfect for Spring!
2. Foil & Nails
Who knew foiling could be so easy and pretty? All you need is: foil, scissors, nail polish (transparent), cotton swap, nail foil glue and follow the steps below!
3. Nail Jewels Are Still Fashionable!
With loads of available nail gems and jewels, "bling-ing" nail ideas are endless. We love the tiny stars on this nail design made with: Sculptured Gel with Custom Coral Gel, silver glitter & crystals.
4. Mod Nail Tape-Striping
There's a lot of patience needed with this work of art, but the "striping" makes it look so professional. If you decide to get it done by a nail salon, a pic says a thousand words, consider bringing this one in to your manicurist.
5. White and Gold Glitter Nails
This gal used the white end of a Revlon Nail Art Neon duo polish for the base and a pot of hexagonal gold glitter purchased on eBay. Apply the gold glitter "roll" down the middle and center first to get the alignment and spacing right. A couple top coats of "fast dry" Seche Vite and you're done.
6. Nail Art Stencils
Revlon Nail Art Stencils are available in several styles and retail for around $5 for one package of 10 stencils. They can be found at most drugstores like Walgreens and CVS. This stencil design is Revlon's "Skull Mani". So cute!
7. More Skulls With Nail Art Stamping!
Nail stamping creates flawlessly intricate designs on fingernails! This one is done with Orly Au Champagne, a soft, shimmery white polish, and the stamping is MoYou Artist Collection plate 11. MoYou is in London, UK but their amazing stamping plates can be ordered online.
8. 'January Blue Roses': Hand-Painted
These feminine hand-painted nails are done with NYC Raindrop (Blue Sky), L’OrĂ©al Sky Fits Heaven, Barry M Blackberry and Barry M Blue Glitter. The glittery rose leaves cheer-up the Winter season!
9. Florals Decals
If you're fed up with accidentally messing up your nails two hours after painting them, then pre-cut and simple peel and stick decals are the answer! Try out Revlon Nail Art 3D Jewel Appliques Wild Flowers!
10. Matte & Glossy Skittle Nails
The nail base here is Essie Stylenomics, which is a very dark, black green color when "matted". The hand-painted design is done in straight black gloss polish. Alternatively for a mat and gloss polish combo there's the new Revlon's Nail Art Shiny Matte.
