How to Make Whimsical Witchy Nails

Ingredients:

• Black nail polish
• Green nail polish
• Purple nail polish
• Clear top coat
• Nail art brush or dotting tool
• Makeup sponge (optional)
• Nail stickers (optional)

Directions:

1. Prepare Your Nails: Start with clean, dry nails. Remove any old polish and push back your cuticles. If you have a base coat, apply it for added durability.

2. Apply Base Color: Paint all your nails with black nail polish. Allow it to dry completely.

3. Create the Witchy Theme:

   • For the green nails: Use a makeup sponge to dab on green polish at the tip. Blend it with the black for an ombre effect. Allow to dry.
   • For the purple nails: Use a nail art brush or dotting tool to draw small, whimsical patterns like stars, moons, or cobwebs.

4. Add Details: If you have nail stickers, apply them now for added flair. Use the nail art brush to create small designs over the polish if desired.

5. Finish Off: Once everything is dry, apply a clear top coat to seal your design and add shine.

6. Let it Dry: Allow your nails to dry completely before using your hands for anything else.
