China Glaze Watercolor Nails

I love watercolor nails. It makes for an interesting manicure and is relatively simple to accomplish. For this manicure, I chose to go for a harsher ring effect.

In order to do the watercolor effect on your nails, you are going to need a few things:
- Acetone
- Nail art brush (I bought mine from Sally Beauty Supply)
- Base color (I used China Glaze White on White)
- A few colors you want to have as your "rings" (I used China Glaze in Beach Cruise-r, Hang Ten-toes, Pink Plumeria, and Sun-Kissed)


I applied 2 coats of China Glaze White on White, then one coat of Seche Vite top coat (you can use 2 coats) and let it dry. I took one of my "ring" colors and placed a few dots on my nails. I dipped my brush in acetone, then dabbed my brush on the dots. Now, repeat the dotting and dabbing with acetone with the rest of your colors and finish with a top coat!



Really cute manicure and nearly foolproof! Have fun!
