Easter is just a few days away. Nail artist Tamsin Salfrais shows how to make three easy Easter nail designs that you can mix and match or wear all together.
Concentric Cross
This simple design is based on a cross pattern. Salfrais chose a purple and gold palette for the Easter holiday, but you can choose any color scheme providing you have three shades of the color.
What you will need:
- Nude nail polish
- Three nail stripers in a light, medium, and dark shade
- Glitter nail striper
- Top coat
Step 1
1. Paint two coats of nude polish and let dry.
Step 2
2. Paint a simple cross using the medium shade striper.
Step 3
3. Take the lightest striper and outline the cross.
Step 4
4. Repeat the outlining with the darkest shade nail striper and then the glitter. Once dry, seal with a top coat.
Easter Egg
Replicate the chocolatey goodness of Easter candy on your nails.
What you will need:
- Light brown nail polish
- Dark brown nail polish
- Brown nail striper
- Purple nail striper
- Top coat
Step 1
1. Start by painting two coats of the light brown nail polish and leave to dry.
Step 2
2.Using the brown nail striper, paint two arches.
Step 3
3. Use the dark brown polish to fill in the circular shape.
Step 4
4. Toward the middle of the brown circle, use the purple nail striper to draw a triangle on its side.
Step 5
5. Draw another as a reflection.
Step 6
6. Add two horizontal lines from the bow shape and once dry, cover with a top coat.
Easter Bunny
The Easter Bunny design is a cute addition to a set of pastel nails.
Here’s what you will need:
- Nude nail polish
- White nail polish
- White nail striper
- Pink nail striper
- Black nail striper
- Top coat
Step 1
1. Start by painting two coats of a nude color and let dry thoroughly.
Step 2
2. Use the white nail polish to paint a large semi-circle above the cuticle.
Step 3
3. Next, paint the bunny’s ears with the white nail striper. This is done by painting two slightly curved lines and joining them to create an ear shape. Fill in the ears.
Step 4
4. Add two pink lines to the ears and a dot in the middle of the semi-circle to form a nose.
Step 5
5. Add two black dots to create the eyes then cover with a top coat.
