1. Prep your nails
Start by applying a layer of clear base coat to each nail.
2. Paint thumb and pinky nails
Now, paint a coat of pastel green on the thumb and pinky nails.
3. Paint index and middle fingers
Next, paint a nude pink color on the index and middle fingers.
4. Paint the ring finger nail
Separate the ring fingernail and paint a thin layer of the gel base coat.
Then, apply a swirl of the green color.
Then, fill in the empty spaces with a shimmery silver polish.
5. Blend the colors
Next, using an ombre brush, swirl the colors together. Use a lint-free wipe as needed to remove any excess polish.
After curing all the nails, here is how they look:
6. Apply a 2nd coat
If needed, apply a 2nd coat of color to the solid nails.
7. Create a French tip design
Apply the green gel polish to the tip of both pink nails. This will serve as a guide for the French tips.
Now, go in with a liner brush dipped in the green polish and round out where you want the French tip smile line to be.
Once you have that curve how you like it, fill it in with the green.
8, Outline the smile line
Next, outline the smile line with the shimmer polish.
9. Bedazzle the nails
Add nail jewels to suit your style on any of the nails.
Using a dotting tool, apply the jewels quickly after painting on the adhesive because it dries quickly.
10. Apply nail glue dryer
Here’s how they turned out with the bling. Shake and spray on some nail glue dryer to make sure it all stays put:
11. Apply a top coat
Apply a top coat to all the flatter nails.
If you have any densely decorated nails, remove them from the stand to paint more carefully around the bling.
12. Cure and file
Finally, cure all the nails under the nail lamp for 2 minutes and file the edges as needed. Here is the final result:
