Winne the Pooh Nails

Wednesday, August 21, 2013

Good morning! I have a different kind of nail art design for you today. I did a character manicure inspired by cutepolish. Check out her video tutorial on Cute Winnie the Pooh Nails. I'm not that amazing on doing characters so when I saw this tutorial from her, I knew I had to try it out. Plus, Winnie the Pooh was one of my favorite childhood characters growing up.

Nicole by OPI, American Apparel, Seche Vite, dotting tool

I used Nicole by OPI Hit The Lights and created a head shape using the brush on the bottle. Then taking a large dotting tool, I dotted ears on the side of the head. For the details on the face, I used a toothpick and a dotting tool with American Apparel Hassid to create the facial features. Finished it off with a coat of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat.

Yikes! This turned out so bad! Not only did I smudge the design thus ruining it when I applied my top coat but the lines I created with the toothpick didn't turn out as smooth as I wanted. Its not my best but since it was my first time doing an actual character, it turned out okay. What do you think of my Winnie the Pooh nails?

    Personally I think they are uber cute and I love that they are on a nude nail. I think the lines look great! We are all our own very worst critics you know ;) I do understand the pain of smudged designs though - it breaks the heart after all the hard work.

    These are so totally cute. :) I have this weird obsession with watching cutepolish videos even though her voice creeps me out a little because it's so robotic. lol
