Fall Leaves- Nail Design

Hello everyone! Happy Fall! Today on the blog we will be creating a simple leaf design on our nails. Also sorry that it has been a while since I last posted, I got a new job at a T-shirt company and I have been busy try to get use to that new job.

Here are the polishes and nail art tools used to create this fall design:

 
 
Base and top coat - CND Stickey Base Coat and Revlon Extra Life No Chip top coat.

Nail polishes- Milani- Quick Teal and  Wet n wild- Glitter orange.

Acrylic paints- Black, red, green, yellow, brown, and orange.    

Nail art brushes- Thin detail brush and a thin stripper brush.

* From now on I want to try and simplify my post, sometimes I fell like I go into to much detail and type way to much for each design.*

Apply base coat, let dry.

Polishes-  
Thumb, index, middle, and pinky- a teal polish.
Ring finger- a glittery orange.

Let that dry.

Paints need for leaves-
Green, light green, yellow, orange (mixed red and yellow), and brown

Index nail design- 
Use a thin detail brush to make a maple leaf shape near the cuticle. Then make half of a leaf on the side of the nail. Once dry, take a thin stripper brush and outline the shapes of your leaves and add small detail by making lines for the leaf veins. 


Middle finger nail design- 

Just like the last nail make a more pointed shaped leaf in the middle of the near the cuticle and one more next to that leaf, make the larger one green and the smaller one yellow. Then repeat that same step as before by outline and adding details.

Thumb nail design- 

This design is similar to the index nail, just make a larger maple leaf with two colors orange and brown. Then make to smaller leaves a red one at the tip of the nail and a green on off to the side of the nail. Once again outline the leaves and add the vine details.

Once you are happy with your fall leaf design apply a top coat to seal in your design and to help it last.
