Fashion & Beauty Ethos: DIY Betsey Johnson Mani

This manicure reminds me of Betsey Johnson's iconic floral print. It was extremely easy, in fact I did all of the nail art with a toothpick. I find toothpicks or bobby pins much easier to control versus those long nail art brushes. The entire mani took me about 30 minutes from start to finish [not including drying time] which isn't pretty bad considering the payoff. 

Betsey Johnson Mani

You Will Need: 

Base Coat

Black Nail Polish <- I used Rimmel "Black Satin"

Pink Nail Polish <-- I used Sally Hansen's "Bubblegum Pink" in the Extreme Wear series

Green Nail Polish <-- I used Sally Hansen's "Going Green" in the Extreme Wear series

White Nail Art Polish 

Toothpick 

Topcoat

Apply basecoat

Paint nails with two coats of black polish

Using your toothpick, randomly place medium sized dots of pink nail polish

Using a new toothpick, outline your nails with the white polish. Don't make the outline perfect, follow the method that is illustrated above [two half circles]

The finished outline should look similar to this

Place green dots near each "flower" 

After designing each nail, apply a top-coat and allow your nails to dry thoroughly for about 20-30 minutes!
