Feel the Heat of Summer with this Hot Nail Art!

Ahh! The sunset vibes every summer where palm trees silhouetted against a sunset sky. Relaxing, isn’t it? So feel relaxed with this easy step-by-step tutorial on how to paint your nails with this summer ready nail design that will put you in the summer mood!

You will need:

• base coat
• different colors of nail polish: white (base)
• coral and purple (sunset gradient)
• black (silhouetted palm trees)
• thin brush
• matte top coat
• liquid latex
• latex-free sponge

Instructions:

Step 1

• Apply a base coat to protect your natural nails and let it dry first before you apply a white nail polish for the base color.

• Use liquid latex around your nail to minimize clean up when you use the gradient method for the sunset colors.

• Apply a stripe of coral and purple nail polish on the sponge and gently press it on your nails.

• Add more layers until you reach the desired sunset hues.

Step 2

• For the silhouetted palm tree — using a thin brush and a black nail polish, draw a slight curved line for the tree trunk and a few short lines at the end for the base for your palm leaves.

• And for the palm leaves, lightly pull out horizontal lines in the same direction from the short lines you started with.

• Once you’re done, seal with a matte top coat.

VOILA!
