Geometrical Nail Art

I wanted to do a nail art tutorial since long. But due to busy schedule and also because of my nail chipping problem, I had this delay. icon sad Geometrical Nail Art Tutorial (

I had to cut short all the nails….me sad :weep:

Anyways, I could not wait longer icon razz Geometrical Nail Art Tutorial . So here is a nail art tutorial on my short nails. It is a geometric pattern where I have used three shades. You have to select a light, medium and a dark shade of either same family or contrasting if you like it that way.

Here is a step by step guide to do it. It’s easy to-do. No professional nail art tools required.

So just remove your favorite nail paints and let’s get going!!! icon smile Geometrical Nail Art Tutorial )

You require:
• A transparent base coat. (I am using Avon Nail Experts Smooth Beginning base coat)

• A transparent top coat. (I am using Ambika Pillai’s Hard Candy transparent top coat)

So let’s begin….
Step 1:-
Clean and shape your nails beforehand. Use a nail buffer to even out rough surface.

Step 2:-
Apply a transparent base coat. Using a base coat really make a difference. It prevents yellowing of nails as well as peeling. Please make sure you use a good quality base coat as it is the one which actually has direct contact with your nail.

Step 3:-
Apply your base color. Apply two even coats and let it dry properly before going to the next step. Remember this should be the lightest shade. We are creating a gradient here. So choose your shade correctly. icon smile Geometrical Nail Art Tutorial

Lightest shade

Step 4:-
Now take the medium color shade and made a diagonal pattern from one corner to other as shown in the pic and fill in the same color. Keep your hands steady. If it appears sheer apply a second coat and let dry.

Step 5:-
Now take the darkest shade (I am using black as I had shimmer blue which would not suit).
Apply this color diagonally but begin from the opposite end of the previous color.

Step 6:-
Let dry the nail paints properly as we have applied too many layers. Now take the silver glitter nail art pen (or use a tooth pick or thin brush) and draw lines parallel to the borders.
The images below will make it clear how to draw the lines one by one. icon smile Geometrical Nail Art Tutorial )
