How to Create a Stunning Ocean-Inspired Manicure
In this tutorial, we’ll show you how to create a stunning ocean-inspired manicure in just a few easy steps. With a little bit of time and effort, you can easily create a beautiful ocean-inspired manicure that is sure to impress everyone around you. So grab your supplies and let’s get started!
– Base coat: This will help protect your nails and provide a smooth surface for the polish to adhere to.
– Blue nail polish: We’ll be using two shades of blue to create the ocean effect. Choose a light blue and a dark blue that you like together.
– White nail polish: This will be used for the waves.
– Top coat: This will help seal your design and give it a glossy finish.
– Nail art brush: This is optional, but it will make it easier to create the waves. If you don’t have one, you can use a toothpick or cotton swab instead.
The first step is to choose your colors. For this design, we recommend using a light blue or aqua shade for the base color and then adding white and blue accents. You can also add in some sparkle with glitter nail polish or rhinestones. Once you have your colors selected, it’s time to start painting!
To create the ocean effect, start by painting your nails with a light blue or aqua shade as your base color. Then, using a toothpick or dotting tool, add small dots of white polish randomly around the nails.
Once you’ve added all of the dots, use a slightly dampened brush to lightly blend the edges of each dot. This will give them a soft, blurry look that resembles the ocean.
Finish off the look by adding in some blue accent nails. To do this, paint your nails with a white base color and then add small dots of blue polish around the nails. Once you’ve added all of the dots, use a slightly dampened brush to lightly blend the edges of each dot.
Finally, add some glitter or rhinestones to really make your nails pop! We hope you enjoyed this tutorial on how to create an ocean-inspired manicure! If you try it out, be sure to tag us on Instagram so we can see your beautiful work!
