Learn The Tricks Of Nail Art
Nail art is a canvas through which you can express yourself and create stunning patterns to stay stylish. It is not necessary to get it done from a specialised nail parlour as it can be instantly done at home by following some simple procedures. Nail art can be done by taping, sponging, painting with brushes. All you need is variety of nail paints, toothbrush, needle and sponge.
1. Sponge bobbing
You can easily design your nails in an achromatic manner with the help of this technique. Begin with applying a base colour on your nails and let it dry. Meanwhile, apply another shade of nail polish on the sponge and dab it over your nails. You get a gradient finish with a sprinkled affect. You can apply a top coat for a matte or gel finish. By dipping a thin brush in acetone, you can remove the extra edges.

2. Taping
Applying a base nail polish is an initial task. Once it dries, cut small pieces of tape and stick it on your nails to create patterns. Fill another shade in the leftover spaces that are visible after the tape application. Later, you can remove the tape slowly and gently to unravel your patterns.
3. Needle design
Apply a base nail paint, let it dry partially and you can apply another stroke of colour in the middle of the nail. Use a needle and move it steadily in a zig-zag manner to create stunning patterns. However, the needle can also be moved in a circular motion. You can also use the same procedure to draw flowers over your nails.
