Just a Simple Dot Mani

Since my nail art skills are as advanced as dotting 101, I figured I’d practice my skillzzzz and do some dotting. Reaaaaally going out of my comfort zone here ;) This is going to be a pretty short post since there’s not much to this mani.

I used a base color of Zoya Snow White…it was streaky so it took 3 coats for coverage. For my dots I used Essie Turquoise & Caicos (turquoise-green) and A Crewed Interest (light peach). I first played around with the dotting on my nail wheel. The only problem with that is that my brain can never duplicate my original design, so if I do something awesome it ends there. Oh well, this was still a descent effort.

    Pretty! I’ve been wanting to try dotting but I don’t have a dotting tool. Did you use one or something else? I tried it with a bobby pin once but it didn’t turn out very good!

      I used dotting tools. I couldnt find them for the longest time anywhere so I ended up buying them off amazon. They’re really cheap online. Here’s a link to the set I bought, the seller I bought it from doesnt have anymore listed but there are a bunch from other sellers. http://amzn.to/H4zL0s

    I really like it! I just got dotting tools, and I’m going to try. Hopefully it won’t be a big fail.

      It’s pretty hard to fail at dotting, just dot dot dot away :) Even if you mess up just add more dots!

    You’re giving me ideas for my easter mani. I just wish I wasn’t such a dunce when it comes to dotting and anything more complicated than a stamp. lol

      Haha, I think if I can manage a couple of dots then you are more than capable of doing so as well.
