Dotty Nails

Treat yourself to a summer manicure!

Supplies
Base coat/top coat, two colors that look good together, and one toothpick.

The Dots 
  • Paint the base color like you would regularly (Optional, run around like a lunatic to dry your nails)
  • Dip the toothpick into the nail polish, leaving excess on the tip.
  • Keeping the toothpick perpendicular to your nail, dot the surface. 
  • Dot to your hearts content!

The Hearts (awww)

  • Make a dot like you did previously, but as you are lifting up, pull down to form half of the heart.
  • Mirror that shape to complete your heart.
Tips and Tricks
  • Practice on a sheet of paper first before trying it on your nails. (Not that you would ever mess up or anything :D )
  • If the dotted polish is still wet and you aren't satisfied with the created shape, you can use the clean side of the the toothpick to push the polish around a bit.
That's All Folks!
