Apply base coat

Polish colors-

Thumb nail- a dark grey toned sliver, Zoya Troy.

Index and pinky finger nail- a holographic burgundy color, Zoya Blaze.

Middle and ring finger nail- a shimmery burgundy color, Zoya Marjorie.

For this design I will just go over how to create the bear on the thumb nail. As for the middle finger nail I just put a heart on the upper right hand corner and on the ring finger nail and a paw print also on the upper right hand corner.

For the teddy bear take a thin detail brush with white paint on it, make a oval shape near the tip of the nail for the bears head and two ears on the top of the head. Then make two ovals on the sides for his arms, another larger oval for his tummy and then two more smaller ovals for his feet. You will need to go over this a few time to be opaque.

Once you have your bears outline done we can make his features. Take a dotting tool with black paint on it, make two dots in the middle of his head for the eyes. Then with a thin detail brush make a small oval shape for the nose, take a thin stripper brush make a small line down the middle of the nose and then a large curved line for the smile. 

For his red bow, take your thin stripper brush with red paint on it make a line on his neck then two loops, then two line from those two loops. 

Now for the hard part outlining your bear, if this step is to hard you can skip this step, I just feel like it makes it look better. If you would like to outline your bear, take a thin stripper brush with black paint on it and starting with the head begin to outline the whole bear. Also don't forget to add the oval shape around his nose and mouth.
