Easy Nail Art Tutroial

Have you ever seen any DIY projects online or on pictures and wandered how it was done, but there are no instructions nor a tutorial on how to do it?

I know i have and it can be frustrating!

So i am going to share with you a step by step tutorial on how to acheive this simple yet effective nail look in the comfort of your own home.

You will need:

  • White nail varnish
  • Your chosen colour(s) of nail varnish
  • Black and white nail stripers (or a toothpick)
  • Base coat and Top coat

To start off, cover your nails with your base coat to protect them and stop them getting stained. Next, apply your white nail varnish. 


When the white is fully dried, take your black nail striper, or you can use a toothpick dipped in black varnish if you don't have a striper, and make four small diagonal lines from the edge of your nail going towards the middle.


Do this on every nail and wait for them to dry. Once dried, take your chosen colour and paint a straight line down the centre of your nail, from top to bottom. You can use the same colour on every nail or choose a different colour for each nail. Wait for them to dry.



Now take your white nail striper (or toothpick) and draw four diagonal lines, in the opposite direction to the black lines you drew, across the colour down the centre of your nail.


Use your black nail striper again to draw the last black lines in the opposite direction to the white lines, starting from the middle of your nails, going to the edge.                                       


Finish off with your top coat and your done!

People will think you spent ages doing your nails when really, it didnt take long at all!
