Step-by-Step Guide to Barbiecore Scarecrow Nails
Step 1: Prepare Your Nails
Start with clean and shaped nails. Ensure your nail beds are smooth and free from old polish.
Step 2: Apply the Base Coat
Using PLA’s Sun-Kissed, apply a thin, even layer as your base coat. Base coats are essential as they protect your natural nails and enhance the longevity of your nail art.
Step 3: Create Dual Color Tips
Next, apply PLA’s Sass Master from one corner of your nail to the free edge in an oval shape. This vibrant pink will serve as one side of your French tip. Make sure to keep the application neat for a polished look.
Step 4: Add the Second Color
On the opposite side of the nail, apply PLA’s Hustle, Rest, Repeat in the same oval shape style. The two colors should intersect to create a beautiful blend reminiscent of a stylized French tip. Strive for symmetry to keep the design balanced.
Step 5: Outline the Design
Using the Black Liner Gel, carefully outline the pink sections of your nail. This will provide a striking contrast and add definition to the design.
Step 6: Add Stitching Details
With the same Black Liner Gel, create small stitching lines along the edges of the pink sections. This step helps to enhance the scarecrow theme while adding intricate detail to your nail art.
Step 7: Seal Your Design
Finally, finish your nail art with a Non-Wipe Top Coat. This not only seals your design but also adds a glossy finish that will make your Barbiecore scarecrow nails shine.
Final Touches and Tips
Once your nails are completely dry, admire your work! If you have clients, consider offering them tips on maintenance and longevity of their manicure. Remind them to avoid excessive water exposure and to apply cuticle oil regularly to keep their hands and nails healthy.
