Nail art is not only a fashion but true art – think of it as miniature paintings that you can carry with you around. Essentially you can use every single nail as a separate canvas and make miniature work of art.
To achieve that you need to spend some time practicing. Maybe best be with the cheap sample material and sample plastic nail.
Sample nails are attached to one big circular plating, or they are one by one. Usually, we can find them in groceries and beauty centers right next to the nail polishers. This is not fake nails, but presenting plates. You can buy cheap on eBay.
Same comes with nail polish. If you plan to practice movements, it is better to use the cheap nail polish, or even any other coloring agents to practice your hand to tolerate small and limited movements.
These are tools you can use to make effective nailart.
Striping Tape
This is a very thin tape made of metallic, with various patterns that can be pressed or incorporated with your rest of nail art. It is very easy to use it, but you still have to be careful not to spoil the rest of the polisher you make prior to that. Striping tape is usually used to create either correct straight line or small geometrical shapes.
Transfer foils
The coolest design is obtained by usage of a foil paper. The base coat is necessary and fatter that apply some thin layer of clear glue, press the transfer foil and then strip it off quickly leaving interesting design. This will require some practice and the is no way you can achieve perfection overnight. Just be careful and if nothing uses tweezers for pulling, try smaller pieces for a start.
Dotter Tool
If your nail art objective is only to make tiny decorations on nails, without much effort and to make it nice and exemplary use a dotting tool ( It is called like that). You can make tiny or larger dots on nails, or even make circular motions to create series and patterns. In seconds you can create multiple dots across your nail. It is also very easy to use and fun to play with.

Applying neat, even layers of nail polish is extremely tricky. Getting a clean and crisp nail polish line takes practice, patience, and a steady hand. If you happen to paint outside the lines, you can always clean up your mistakes!
In order to produce a neat and even manicure, you must first remove any old polish from your nails. Acetone nail polish removers dry out your nail, and cuticle. If possible, use a non-acetone nail polish remover over an acetone nail polish remover.
Place a cotton swab or ball over the opening of your nail polish remover. Make sure it is completely covering the opening of the bottle.
Tip the bottle upside down and wait a few seconds for the cotton swab or ball to become saturated with the remover.
Rub the saturated cotton swab or ball over your nails to remove the polish.
Re-saturate your cotton swab or ball as needed.
After removing your old nail polish, devote some time to clipping, shaping, and buffing your nails. Locate nail clippers, emery board, and a gentle buffer.
Use the clippers to trim your nails, if needed.
Smooth the edges of your nails with an emery board nail file. File your nails into a round, square, or rounded-square shape.
Run over each nail with a slightly abrasive buffer to even out the surface of your nails.
Once your nails are clipped, shaped, and buffed, take a moment to relax and pamper yourself. Retrieve a basin and fill it with warm water and a squirt of your gentle facial cleanser. Use a gentle body scrub to exfoliate your hands before soaking them.
Submerge your hands in the warm, soapy water to remove the body scrub. Soak your hands for three minutes. Remove your hands from the basin and dry them on a clean towel.
