Up front: Today's nail art looks way better in real life than on the pictures :(
I was thinking about those wall papers of a forrest path in fall. I really love these wall papers and like to look at them any time of the year.
I guess I used wrong polishes for the nail art as they are metallic and chrome and without natural light it's just all catching the light and dissapearing in the pictures.
Nevertheless, I have a tutorial.
1) Start with applying a neutral color (Catrice Ultimate Nail Lacquer Limited Edition Eve in Bloom - C01 Bloomynous)
2) Use a sponge and bronze color to sponge the nail (Catrice Ultimate Nail Lacquer - 910 Oh my Goldness!)
3) Use a striper brush and dark brown polish to paint the trees (Rimmel London 60 seconds - 550 Major Brown)
4) Use a flat or one stroke brush and some chromes or maybe just normal colors (red, green, yellow, brown, orange) to make the leaves on the trees. Only around the cuticles and starting from half way.
Use the brush as a dotting tool (dipping).
- NYC 018 Bronze metal
- OPI mini Muir Muir on the Wall
Too bad the leaves are almost invisible on the picture. Maybe I can get a better pic tomorrow in the sun.
Thanks for reading!
Swatches, reviews and nail art. All art is made by me on my natural nails. Mostly free hand.

Day 260) Nail art fall tree
Today I have a tutorial for an easy fall tree.
Step 1:
Start with applying a white or beige color
Step 2:
Material: Striper brush and brown polish
Paint a tree on the nail using the striper brush and brown polish
Step 3:
Material: Dottingtool and red, orange, yellow and green polish
Use the dottingtool and the colors above to make colorful dots around the branches and at the trunk; these dots are going to be the colored leaves.
