• For an accent nail, apply a pink glitter polish over the entire nail.
• You can add extra glitter polish to the bunny ears for more sparkle.

Easter Confetti Nail Art

Celebrate the season with nails that resemble colorful confetti. Use bright spring colors to create a fun and lively look that works well for Easter parties or spring weddings.

Instructions:

• Use a soft neutral polish, such as a sheer pink or beige, as the base color.
• Select pastel colors such as pink, blue, yellow, green, and purple for the dots.
• Use a dotting tool or the tip of a bobby pin to create scattered dots across each nail.
• Layer different colors for a multidimensional confetti effect, letting each layer dry slightly before adding the next.

Hatching Chick Nail Art

Instructions:

• Begin by painting all nails with a vibrant yellow nail polish.
• On selected nails, use a dotting tool or toothpick dipped in white polish to create small, evenly spaced polka dots.
• On the middle nails, use white polish to paint a scalloped edge at the tip of the nail to look like a cracked eggshell.
• Let the white polish dry, then use a dotting tool to add two black dots for the chick’s eyes.
