Step By Step: Swirls and Dotted Flowers

This is a Step By Step tutorial on the swirls and dotted flowers design I did the other day.

Things you'll need:

• Nail Polish - base colour - Nicole by OPI It Starts With You
• Nail Polish - pink colour - Nicole by OPI Play Fair
• Nail Polish - silver colour - Nicole by OPI Positive Energy
• Konad Nail Art Pen - White - alternately you can use a dotting tool and white polish
• Konad Nail Art Pen - Black - alternately you can use a dotting tool and black polish
• Nail Art Brush
• Top coat - Seche Vite Dry Fast top coat
• Pad of paper/ Paper towelling

  
Step 1: Apply your base coat and then however many coats of your chosen base colour. I used Nicole by OPI It Starts With Me as my base colour for this design.

Step 2: Then I freehanded an accent across the tips of my nails in pink. I used Nicole by OPI Play Fair. If your hands are very shaky you can use scotch tape to make the accent.

Step 3: Then using the nail art brush draw two swirls across the top of the nail downwards in the same pink. Again I used Nicole by OPI Play Fair.

Step 4: Then in the opposite direction heading up the nail draw two swirls in a your base colour in the opposite direction. I used Nicole by OPI It Starts With Me.

Step 5: Then using the nail art brush and a silver polish draw two swirls across the middle of the swirls of the previous two colours - the pink and silver. I used Nicole by OPI Positive Energy.

Step 6: Next using either a black nail art pen or a dotting tool and black nail polish apply a dot to the bottom corner opposite the accent and swirls. I used Konad Nail Art Pen in black.

Step 7: Then using either a white nail art pen or a dotting tool and white nail polish draw five dots around the black dot to form the flower. I used Konad Nail Art Pen in white.

Step 8: Again using the white nail art pen draw a swirl made up of five dots in one direction on one side of the flower and then the same design in the opposite direction on the other side.

 

Step 9: Finally clean up any mess you made and then add a top coat. I used Seche Vite Dry Fast top coat.

 There you have it!
