Winter Time Daisy Nails

 So way back in the depths of this blog I made a similar blog post of these cute nails! Though this time I have mixed up the colour scheme to create a winter yet cute design!

 For the base I used a greyish purple shade from kikos power pro range, I believe the colour is number 29? The petals and pollen consist of 2 sweet pink colours, an almost white pink shade called rose hip and a deeper more moave shade called ballerina! These 3 shades work so well together and bring a wintery yet Spring feel to this cute design! Of course you don't have to use these specific colours! Be creative and play around with them!

Here's how I achieved these super ditsy Daisy nails!

 I used the WAH book of nails down town girls book as a reference to this cute pattern! I deffinatley recommend both this book and the original WAH nails book to anyone who loves painting their nails! There's so many cool nail art designs to try out and easy to follow instructions! This book can be brought in many retail stores such as topshop and urban outfitters as well as online on stores such as ASOS and even on the WAH nails website!

All you need are 3 different shades of polish, a clear top coat polish, a nail file, a dotting tool (or a Bobby pin works just as well!) and some emergency nail varnish remover! Just incase!

The first step is to file your nails into the shape you want, shaping your nails really helps to create that salon look! Once the perfect shape has been created, paint your nails with the base colour you have chosen. I needed to do 2 coats of this to make sure the colour popped!

Next take your petal shade and the Bobby pin. Blob the Bobby pin into the varnish and wipe off the access to prevent over dotting! Then once the base coat is dry blob 5 dots in a circle to create the flower petals. You can choose to place the petals wherever you like! I went for a randomly scattered  design but you may decide you'd like each nail to look the same, it's completely up to you!

To add more of a realistic look to my petals I took a tooth pick and pushed the paint blobs inwards to create more detailed petals! This is an optional step but I would deffinatley advise doing it! 

I then took my last coloured polish and simply blobbed the colour into the middle of the flower to create the pollen. I lastly glazed over my nail design with my clear polish and my winter Daisy nails are complete!

These are super cute and super easy!

Let me know if you try out this simple nail design! I'd love to see your results!
