Choosing the right motif is one of the most important parts when it comes to nail designs as it is greatly responsible for the success of the manicure. Polka dots are one of the most beloved motifs when it comes to nail designs due to the fact that they are relatively easy to create using simple tools.
Unlike more complex designs polka dots do not require as much technical and artistic skill patience and willingness to learn being the most important requirements.
Depending on the complexity of the nail design you want you can opt for two or more colors to get the desired contrast. Choosing contrasting colors is one of the most used techniques to create interest in a matter of minutes.
Although two colors can be enough to create a lasting impression, those who are interested in complex, busy designs generally preferred. If you go for simpler designs on the other hand, creating a lasting impression with minimum effort will be a lot simpler.
Polka dots can be created best using a nail art pen, yet if you don’t have one you can find an easy substitute that can work just as well. Toothpicks can be successfully used to create polka dots if you dip them in nail polish and press firmly, lifting it after a few seconds.
The length of the nail can be also an important factor as it can give you additional options when it comes to the placement of the designs. Those who have naturally long nails or artificial nails can choose to highlight only the top part of the nails instead of the entire nail, an option that is not as successfully applicable for those with short nails. Moreover if you like a 3D effect having fake nails is definitely a plus.
If you are using more than two colors the way you distribute them is crucial. Having an adequate creative vision is crucial. Strategies such as finding dividing the surface of the nail in two parts to be able to create contrast and making sure that an eye catching effect is being created.
The color choice can also be important if you want a simple nail design for a specific occasion. A green and gold color combination can immediately be associated with winter holidays when these colors are used more than ever while warmer colors such as pink or red can have a completely different connotation. Choose the colors wisely and you will be able to have a suggestive manicure in no time just by taking into account this often overlooked tip.
Browse through the great variety of designs available to be able to choose the one that best suits your personality and the occasion. Dedicate enough time to choosing the pattern and patience to create the right polka dot pattern and you will be able to impress every single time.
