Plaid Inspired Nail Art Tutorial



Hey everyone,
                        I hope you all are doing well :). Its been a while since I've uploaded a tutorial so today I have a simple plaid design to share. For this tutorial you will need a thin nail art brush in addition to your polishes. Also, be sure to start off with a base coat to protect your natural nails. Let’s get on to the tutorial!



Step one: I began by painting three of my nails white and two in dark purple. (The plaid design will be on the nails painted in purple)





Step two: Next, using a light purple polish make two thick vertical lines along the nail. This can be done using the actual nail polish brush.





Step three: Make two thick horizontal lines over the lines previously made in step two.





Step four: In the areas where the vertical and horizontal lines meet, create black squares.





Step five: Next, using a thin nail art brush and yellow polish create thin vertical and horizontal lines over the black squares and light purple sections.





Step six: Clean up around your nails to remove any polish from the skin and add your preferred top coat to smooth out design and add shine. 
*As you can see on the nails polished in white I drew a couple of stripes. 






Products used:
L.A Colors (nail stripper): black
Opi: Do you have this color in stockholm?
Orly: Lemonade
