The swan – French motif with crushed shells

You need:
1. Nail lacquer in “dark-Blue”
2. Nail art liner in “White”
3. Nail art liner in “Black”
4. Nail art liner in “bright Green”
5. Clear nail lacquer
6. Crushed shells in “Turquoise”
7. Spot-Swirl or toothpick

Tip:
We recommend to begin with the thumb, because it has a larger working surface.

Step 1: Nail lacquer in the colour dark blue
Begin on the left edge of the fingernail and draw with the nail lacquer in the colour dark blue a wavy line to the right edge of the fingernail.

Now paint the front part of the fingernail with the nail lacquer in dark blue (see on the left side).

The result should correspond approximately to the picture.

Note:
Before you continue with step 2, wait until the nail lacquer on the fingernail is dried.

Step 2: Nail art liners in the colours white and black
Now draw with the nail art liners in the colours white and black a swan on the fingernail.

Tip:
Before you use the nail art liner, you should strip the surplus lacquer of the brush at the edge of the bottle. Thus you can draw clean, fine lines.

The design ‘The swan – French motif with crushed shells’ should correspond approximately to the picture.

Step 3: Clear nail lacquer, the spot-swirl, the crushed shells in turquoise and the nail art liner in bright green
Paint a thin layer of the clear nail lacquer on the dark blue nail lacquer, as attachment for the crushed shells in turquoise.

Moisten easily the tip of the spot-swirl or a toothpick and take up a crushed shell, which should stick to the tip. Now set the crushed shell on the damp clear nail lacquer.

Repeat the procedure for further crushed shells (see on the left side).

Now draw with the nail art liner in the colour bright green four short lines on the fingernail.

The nail art design ‘The swan – French motif with crushed shells’ should correspond approximately to the picture.

Note:
Before you continue with the last step, wait until the clear nail lacquer on the fingernail is dried.

Step 4: Clear nail lacquer
At the last step you have to paint over the entire fingernail with a clear nail lacquer.

The clear nail lacquer protects the nail art and gives the fingernail more gloss.

After the clear nail lacquer is dried, the nail art design ‘The swan – French motif with crushed shells’ is finished.
