Dot's on middle and pinky finger nail

Take the same polish that you used on the ring finger nail, and on a large dotting tool dot a few row of purple glitter dots. I did three rows going down the nails.

Panda peeking from the tip of the nail

On the index nail near the tip of the nail make a circle and fill that in with white paint. 

With black paint make two ovals on the pandas head for the ears.

For your pandas face we will just make the eyes and nose. First make some small dots to know where you want to place the eyes and nose at. Then make two black ovals that are slightly cut off for the eyes, then make a small white dot in those ovals. 

For his nose make a small black oval in between the eyes right on the tip of the nail.

For an added touch you can add a heart in the right hand corner of the nail above your pandas head.

Panda on thumb nail 

The panda on the thumb is very similar to the one we just made on the index nail, the pandas whole face will be showing, and we will make the panda mouth as well. 
For the panda head make more of a full circle near the cuticle and then fill that in with white.

Once again with black paint make two ovals on the pandas head for the ears.

For the pandas face make small dots again for where you want to place the eyes and nose. 
For the eyes make to full black oval shapes and then add two small dots in those ovals.
Then make a small black oval in the middle of the eyes
Lastly for the panda's smile make a line from the nose and then two curved lines from that for his smile. 

Once again you can make a heart above the pandas head, I put it on the left side.

Once you have your pandas just the way you like apply a top coat to seal in your design and to help it to last.

 
Here is my practice version.

Koala Bear Care- Koala Nail Design

Hello everyone! Hope everyone is staying safe and try to stay healthy as well. I know that this year has started off not so well and the past few weeks have been scary, that's why I decided to hop on the blog and post a cute koala bear care nail design for all of you, just to kind of get you mind off of what is happening even just for a little bit.

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

 

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

Nail polish- Zoya- Lillian.

Arcylic paint- White, black, green, yellow, and brown. 
Used black and white to make two shades of grey, and used a darker green and yellow to make a lighter green.

Nail art brushes- Thin detail brush and stripping brush.

A small cup of water to clean off your nail art brushes.

Apply base coat.

Let that dry.

Polish all of your nails with a light blue polish.

Let that dry as well.  

First we will start off with the eucalyptus leaves that going on all four nails. Starting with the index nail and going to the middle and ring finger nail. Make a long branch across those three nails, then make some more smaller branches from the larger one. 

Then with two different greens, a light and a darker green, make some very small leaves coming from those smaller branches and some on the larger branch as well.

For the pink finger nail we will make four branches from all four coroners of the nail. On each corner make a long branch and then two shorter ones. Then make some leaves on each branch.

Lastly on to the Koala on the thumb nail. First make sure you have a lest two shades of grey, a light and darker grey. Then make a large circle for your koala's head, then two ears (use the lighter grey.) Then make his body, then with a darker shade of grey make two arms and two legs. 

With that same darker grey take your stripper brush and make your koala's ears look fuzzy, by making small lines very close to each other to make his ears fuzzy looking. 

Now on to the koala's face, make two oval for his eyes and a side ways oval for his nose and then two curved lines for his smile. 

For some for details, we will add some branches and leaves. Make a long thick line between your koala's arms and legs, then a thin line that is coming from his ear. Then add two leaves in his paws and then two more near the bottom the branch near the cuticle. Also add some leaves near his ear as well.
