Easy nail art for beginners without tools
Here are some easy nail art ideas that you can try without using any tools:
- Ombré nails: Start by painting your nails with a base color. Then, using a makeup sponge, dab a lighter or darker shade of the same color onto the tip of your nail, blending it towards the middle. This creates an ombré effect.
- Polka dot nails: Use the end of a toothpick or a bobby pin to create small dots on your nails with a contrasting color. You can create patterns or just randomly place the dots.
- Striped nails: Use a striping brush or the edge of a business card to create thin stripes on your nails with a different color. You can also use scotch tape to create straight lines for the stripes.
- Floral nails: Use a small dotting tool or the end of a toothpick to create small flowers on your nails. You can also use a bobby pin to create the petals.
- Gradient nails: Similar to ombre nails, paint your nails with a base color and then use a makeup sponge to dab on a second color in the center of your nail, blending it towards the edges. This creates a gradient effect.
