Tropical Nail Art DIY Steps
- The first and foremost important thing in a manicure is to get the base right. Cut your nails, buff them and file them if you need before putting the first coat.
- Make sure your nail paints have a fluid consistency. If they have become, add a few drops of nail paint remover to dilute them.
- Apply the first coat of white on your nails. This color usually does not give full opacity in one coat and hence let it dry before you apply the next one.

- Once the base is fully dried, you can begin painting the flowers. Also note that the drying time varies from brand to brand.
- Draw a small cross from one of the brighter colors like orange. Make another cross, in the spaces left between the earlier one. Your shape will somewhat resemble an asterisk now. Only remember that these are petals and hence perfect geometrical looking shape is not required for it.

- Repeat the process with the other bright color – pink. On your nail, two flowers won’t fit completely hence, for the second flower draw only part of it using the same steps as above.
