Neutral Vintage Mix Nail Art
Start with your base coat, I used L’Oreal 7 in 1 Saviour La Manicure. Once it’s dry – paint a neutral base colour.

I used Collection Antique Rose as a base, if you want – read the Collection Antique Rose swatch and review.

For the polka dots on the ring finger I used H&M Midnight Passion. Simply load a dotting tool (or hair grip, needle, tooth pick, etc) with your chosen nail polish and starting in the middle of the nail create your first dot. Work diagonally, spacing your dots around the first one evenly – continue until the nail is complete.

For the drips on the thumb and pinky fingers I used Essie Very Structured and a dotting tool. Starting with the tip of your drip, dot on the polish and gently extend the line upwards. Load some more polish and do the same, once you have dragged a few of the drips upwards – fill in the tip of the nail.

I used Orly Country Club Khaki and Essie Very Structured to do the leopard print on the middle finger. Incase you’re unsure here’s my leopard print nail art tutorial.

For the roses on the forefinger I used Mavala Riga, H&M Midnight Passion and No7 Totally Teal. Start by dotting rough splodges of your lighter base for the rose. Once dry use a thin dotting tool to draw squiggles in a circular shape over the top. Add your leaves either side and finish with a coat of top coat – et voila!
I used Seche Vite Fast as a top coat – because I hate waiting!
