Nail Art of the Day: Pink with Black Polka Dots

Good morning and Happy Tuesday! How was everyone's weekend? It's been super busy at Steph's Closet. In the next month or so, I plan on revamping the entire site for my lovely readers. So expect user friendly searches along with cool features and loads of new pictures in my Photo Gallery. Please bear with me in this long transition.

Let's move on to the next order of business, Nails! And today I'm bringing you my favorite nail art, cute lil' Polka Dots using my handy dotting tool! For this design I used Color Club's Vintage Couture nail polish and black acrylic paint for the dots.

Have you guys picked up a dotting tool from Sally's yet? Don't be intimidated, it's super easy I promise! You can even apply with your non dominant hand.

Check out one swatch below.

Hope you have a wonderful day!

I'm loving the color combo. I've tried this on my toes but not my hands yet. I used black as a base coat then use my Sally Hansen art pen in hot pink for the dots.

Ooh, I love those! I was actually at Sally's last week on Thursday looking at the dotting tool and ready to buy it. But I have one question: How long do the nail beds have to be in order to apply nail art to the nails and make them look good? Because I'm afraid mine may be too short, even though I've been growing them out.

Hi Samantha,
Your nails can be ultra short, it don't matter. Polka Dots look great on all shapes and sizes! :)

My favorite combination of colors is pink and black. I always love your polka dot manicures! So adorable.

Do you know of a sally Hansen colour that would match this pink?

Hi Peach,
Unfortunately, No I don't. Sorry I couldn't be more help :(
