How to get started in Nail Art



To get started doing cute nail art there are some necessities in order to make
a variety of designs and looks.

The 10 top things you will need are: 

1. Base Coat
2. Polishes
3. Rhinestones
4. Glitter
5. Striper Brush
6. Short Tip Brush
7. Nail Art Pen
8. Nail Dotting Tool
9. Basecoat
10. Nail Polish Remover w/ q-tip (for mistakes)



However, not all of them are necessary...only if you want to have a full collection and
not use household items like matches in place of a dotting tool. Totally up to you !

You can get ALL of these things on ebay if not at your local beauty supply or even
drugstore.

My favorite nail polish brands that never dissapoint me are: OPI, Models Own, Barry M,
Etude House & Essie to name a few.

Models own do good nail art pens. My least favorite are the marker-tip ones from
Sally Hansen.

Here is a video with some extra tips on how to do dots, glitter, french, stripes & leopard.

If you would like me to cover any other basics let me know !
