Use Color Club Feathered Hair Out To There for this. Make sure to put 2 coats of the nail polish to increase the opacity.
3. Draw the eyes
For the eyes, use a dotting tool dipped in black nail polish.
4. Draw the mouth
Use a tiny brush dipped in black nail polish to draw the mouth. You can draw big or small mouths!
5. Add accents
Using a dotting tool again, use a light pink nail polish (Formula X Blushing – Cotton Candy Pink) to draw rosy cheeks. Then with white nail polish, put two smaller dots to create lively eyes.
6. Paint the other fingers
Using pastel colors, have fun painting the rest of your nails! Use Color Club nail polishes in Disco’s Not Dead, ’Til The Record Stops, and Diggin’ The Dancing Queen.
