Coat 3: Use 4 strokes to create a "staircase" on each nail with DARK silver

"Betty Spaghetti"

These are super cute, super fun, super kawaii nails that look good on your short natural nail!
You only need 1 tint light and dark (I used pink for the directions), 2 polka dot colors, and iridescent glitter!

Wet N' Wild (Wild Shine) 460D Kaleidescope (glitter)
Sally Hanser Xtreme 360 Mellow Yellow

Assorted 3-4mm (large) rhinestones

Method Used:
Coat 1: Paint a coat or 2 of a light tinted kawaii color. I chose light pink
Coat 2: Sponge a gradient on the tip with the darker color
Coat 3: Iridescent glitter. It's important to put the polka dots on TOP of glitter
Coat 4: Use small dotting tool for one of the colors
Coat 5: Use large dotting tool for the other color
Coat 6: Glue a rhinestone corresponding to a polka dot in the corner of the nail!

Have fun ^_^
