(Okay, truth time - I didn't do these nails in celebration; I did them while waiting for admissions decisions to be published, hoping it would take my mind off things. Unfortunately - or fortunately? - these nails didn't take as much time or effort as I thought they would...)
If you're looking to recreate this look, I used Essie Cute as a Button as my base color and a dotting tool to add Zoya Purity polka dots on top. For those of you new to dotting tools (word of warning - I've only used mine couple times, too!), I think it's easiest to start with a symmetrical pattern like this! Let me know if you'd ever like a whole post dedicated to dotting - I definitely think that might be a post worth doing!
I personally lovelovelove this manicure to death. I don't know why; maybe it's because I can't usually get my nails to look so...cute. Whatever. What other creative designs have you tried out with dotting tools?
Stay happy!
Oh wow this is super adorable.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Becca! Good luck with your dotting tools - I'm literally addicted to mine, and I've only done a couple of dotted designs so far!! Thanks for checking my blog out :)
