Fall Leaves Nail Art

Where have I been with my blog posts?! I have no idea. But I do have some fall nail art designs in store for you and I have the first one right now! This is a matte leaf nail art that I did using almost all Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure polishes! Here's the tutorial!

Step 1:

Start with a nude base. This is Prevail "Barclay Baby."

Step 2:

Use a small paint brush to paint some leaves in some fall colors. I used a "spotter" paintbrush I got at Michael's for 49¢. My fall colors were all from the Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure line. The colors were "Rhododendron" "Clay" "Ever Green" and "Dark Knight."

Step 3:

Using a dotting tool dipped in a silver glitter polish (mine was SHCSM in "Shoot The Moon") fill in some of the empty spaces between the leaves.

Step 4:

Even though I want this to be matte, I still like to use my Seche Vite first to make sure my design will dry completely and won't smudge.

Step 5:

Then I apply my matte topcoat to get the finish I want. I don't know why but I really like matte topcoats for fall!
