A green manicure on oval nails can be a stunning and vibrant choice. To achieve this look, you can follow these steps:
- Prepare your nails: Start by shaping your nails into an oval shape using a nail file. Gently file the sides of your nails, moving from the edges towards the center, to create the desired oval shape. Be sure to file in one direction to prevent any damage.
- Push back cuticles: Use a cuticle pusher or an orangewood stick to gently push back your cuticles. This step helps to create a clean canvas for your manicure.
- Trim and buff nails: If necessary, trim your nails to your desired length. Then, use a nail buffer to gently smooth the surface of your nails. This step will help the nail polish adhere better and create a more even finish.
- Apply a base coat: Apply a thin layer of clear base coat to your nails. This step helps to protect your nails and prevents staining from the colored nail polish.
- Choose your green nail polish: Select a green nail polish that you like. There are various shades of green available, such as mint, emerald, forest, or lime green. Pick a shade that complements your skin tone and personal style.
- Apply the first coat: Dip the brush into the nail polish, wiping off any excess on the side of the bottle. Start at the base of your nail and apply the polish in thin, even strokes. Leave a small gap near the cuticles to prevent flooding. Repeat this process on each nail.
- Apply the second coat: After the first coat has dried, apply a second coat of green nail polish. This will ensure full coverage and a vibrant color.
- Clean up any mistakes: If you accidentally get nail polish on your skin or cuticles, use a small brush dipped in nail polish remover to clean up the edges and achieve a neater look.
- Apply a top coat: Once the second coat of green polish has dried, finish off your manicure with a clear top coat. This will add shine, protect your manicure, and help it last longer.
- Allow nails to dry: Give your nails enough time to dry completely. It’s essential to avoid any smudges or dents in your freshly painted manicure.
And voila! You now have a gorgeous green manicure on your oval nails. Remember to take proper care of your nails and enjoy your beautiful new look!
