September 3, 2019 By Kelly Pepper Leave a Comment

We’ve all seen Dory first in the “Finding Nemo” movie last 2003. We’ve all learned to love and adore her in that movie. And finally, after a few years of waiting, the much-awaited “Finding Dory” was released in theaters this year. A perfect tribute to show ho much I love Dory is through this Disney nail art tutorial.

[Tutorial] Have Fun and Find Dory with this Easy Disney Nail Art Tutorial

Being a Dory fan since 2003, I’ve always adored her for having such a big heart and being such a good fish friend. To show how much Dory inspires me, I’ll be taking on a Disney nail art tutorial from cutepolish. I don’t do a lot of cartoon nail art designs, but today, I’ll be making an exception. So let’s get started!

  • OPI natural base coat
  • dotting tools
  • Essie blanc
  • makeup sponge
