Products & tools

• Regular air-dry polish
• Base coat and top coat
• Nail file
• Fine nail-art brush for painted details
• Nail-art dotting tool for small accents

Steps

1. Gently shape the free edge; leave the cuticles intact.
2. Start with clean, dry nails. Apply base coat according to its label.
3. Apply thin coats of your chosen regular polish and let each layer dry.
4. On a dry base, draw a thin stem with a fine nail-art brush. Add short paired strokes for leaves or a few small dots for petals using regular polish. Begin with one accent nail; simplify layered flowers to a flat outline rather than attempting sculpted petals.
5. Add top coat following its label and allow enough drying time.

Tips

• Outline the hibiscus petals with fine pink strokes and leave their centers mostly nude, using tiny white accents sparingly.
• Hibiscus in pink ink. Use this original concept as a visual reference. The home version uses regular polish and does not reproduce extensions, raised decorations or specialist salon effects.

Before you begin

• Use only regular air-dry polish for this guide. Follow the product labels, ventilate the room and stop if irritation occurs. Do not use damaged or painful nails.
