Here are the most simple tips we have found.

Before you get started you’ll need:

  • A clear nail polish
  • A matte white nail polish
  • At least two coloured nail polishes
  • Some paper towels
  • A straw
  • Some cotton buds.
  • Nail polish remover.

apply-nail-polishStart by applying a base coat of clear nail varnish onto clean nails and allow it to dry.

Pastel-watercolour-manicure-1-575x383Apply two layers of matte white polish, allowing the first coat to dry before applying the second. This creates a base for your design.

Pour a generous amount of each polish onto a paper towel and coat the end of a straw with the polish as shown. Blow through the clean end of the straw directly onto your nail, alternating between each polish you have chosen. This will create a splatter effect across your nails, as shown above.
