Magic on fingertips: DIY nail art

by LiCoscelia

DIY nail art is an economical and fun activity. Its charm lies not only in the endless creativity and imagination it inspires, but also in the sense of accomplishment it brings when you see your fingertips blossom with beauty. From simple solid color painting to complex pattern drawing, sequin inlay, and even creative design using stickers and nail pieces, every step is full of the fun of exploration and discovery. In the process of DIY nail art, you can not only learn how to incorporate bits of inspiration from daily life into nail art creation, making your fingertips a small stage to show your personality, but also find a little relaxation and enjoyment in your busy life.

Nail art is not only an external decoration, but also an expression of one's inner self and a place to place one's emotions. Through DIY nail art, everyone can incorporate their emotions, hobbies, style and even attitude towards life into it. When you are in a good mood, you can choose COSCELIA bright and lively colors DF01, CT06, LL01, XS04, and match them with relaxed and cute patterns; when you want to show confidence and strength, calm and atmospheric colors such as CS01, CT06, FH04 become the first choice. Every nail art creation is a process of dialogue with oneself, to understand and express oneself more deeply.

 

Of course, when you try it for the first time, you will inevitably encounter problems such as uneven application, inaccurate pattern drawing, and loose attachment of decorations. However, it is these challenges that motivate you to sum up your experience and practice continuously, so that your skills can be improved.

To ensure the durability and beauty of your DIY manicure, you can follow these steps:

  • Shaping: Use nail clippers and nail files to polish the nails into the desired shape, and use a cuticle pusher or cuticle scissors to gently push away the dead skin and cuticles around the nails to make the nail edges neater.
  • Cleaning: Cleaning: Use a sponge file to gently polish the surface of the nails to remove the surface grease to increase the adhesion of the nail polish. Pay attention to polishing evenly to avoid excessive polishing that will cause the nails to become thinner.
  • Coloring: Apply the base coat evenly on the polished nails, and apply the color coat on the nails according to your personal preference. You can apply a thin layer, or apply it repeatedly to increase the saturation of the color. Each layer of color coat needs to be cured with a nail lamp. When applying the color coat, gently brush the color coat on both sides of the front edge of the nail to prevent the edge of the nail polish from falling off.
  • Decoration: Add your favorite decorations or draw different patterns, and finally apply a topcoat. The entire DIY manicure process is complete.

Compared to going to a nail salon, DIY manicure can greatly save money. With the accumulation of experience and in-depth practice, we will gradually master more manicure techniques and create more exquisite and unique works. When you see your own manicure works blooming on your fingertips, the sense of accomplishment and satisfaction cannot be expressed in words. If you are interested in manicure and are willing to try new things, why not try to do manicure for yourself at home!
