Whenever I think of Beauty and the Beast, I always think about the rose. It was such an important part of the movie. My daughter loves it too, and she asked me to help her paint her nails with roses like in the movie, so I came up with this quick Beauty and the Beast inspired nail art tutorial.
by Holly Homer
What you'll need
- Red Nail Polish
- Red Glitter Nail Polish
- Straight Pink with a Big Round Ball on the End
- Quick-Dry Topcoat
How to make it
1. Start with a light blue nail. I used this color because it reminded me of the glass case the rose was kept in by the Beast.
2. Dip the big ball on the end of the straight pin into red nail polish.
3. Now, take the ball and paint a dot onto your nail.
4. These dots don't have to be perfect, because they're flowers, so this is a perfect nail art for beginners.
5. Repeat that three or so times depending on your nail size. If you're doing this on little girls, you might only have room for one or two.
6. Now, dip the pointy end of the pin into the glittery red. We are going to use this to accent our roses.
7. Draw three or so "C" shapes into the dots on your nail.
8. Repeat these C's on each dot.
9. When you're finished, seal the design with a fast drying top coat, but wait until it's REALLY DRY or else you will smudge your roses.
