Eiffel Tower/ Paris Inspired Nail Art Tutorial



Hey everyone,
                        Welcome back! I hope you all are having a great week, if not I've got a fun and simple Paris inspired design for all you nail art lovers. I have always been intrigued with Paris as it is know as the 'city of love' and also, home to the famous Eiffel tower. In order to achieve this look you will need the polishes of your choice in addition to a thin nail art brush. Also, be sure to start off with a base coat to protect your natural nails. Let’s get on to the tutorial!



Step one: Paint all nails in mint green polish.





Step two: Next, using a thin nail art brush and a black polish create two diagonal lines that connect at the tip like shown.





Step three: Using the same brush make three vertical lines at varying intervals over the shape created in the previous step. Also, slightly curve lines inwards at the base of structure to make it more realistic.





Step four: 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.
*For the rest of my nails I painted on the word ‘Paris’ and a few hearts using a thin nail art brush (Tooth pick can also be used).
