#2 Got this in a Japanese Nail Care Boutique in Hawaii, it's super useful!

#3 Apply 2 coats of your favorite base color; I chose light green for a retro touch.

#4 Use the dotting marbleizing pen to create the polka dot pattern on each nail. Don't ask me how if you don't have a steady hand, practice makes perfect! ;)

#5 It's not super perfect but it's not terribly bad also :p

#6 Lastly, give your nails a top-coat shine to protect and make your manicure last longer!

I've been contemplating painting polka nails since I love polka dots. I love your base color so much, it's a very refreshing young kind of green.

ps: I don hv steady hands, I think I ate too much chicken feet LOL.

Hey 杏奈公主,
Hmm... I never tried artificial toenails before, but i guess it shouldn't be a problem. Give it a try if you think that's necessary. Good luck~~

Hi Beverly, you use what to make sure the manicure is painted nicely in the nail and won't exit its border of the nail bed? I found it's difficult to pain it nicely w/o exit the nail bed border >.<.

What about your sister's upu result? Does she get what she want?
