Dots!

I have made a decision: from now on, Friday is Nailday. So, without further ado, the first official Nailday post!

The goods: All of the polished I used for this look are Sally Hansen and the colors are as follows—Double Duty base and top coat, Sea in the Smooth and Perfect line, and Pat on the Black in the Complete Salon Manicure line.

Paint nails a solid color. I got Sea intending for it to be a light pistachio but it turned out to look mostly white. While it was a disappointing at first. it works well with the dark purple spots.
Dotting time! Get a medium-large dotting tool —I used a clicky pen with a rounded click thing (do official terms for these things exist?). Create three dots in the middle of the nail and it doesn't really matter if the dots get cut off by the length of your nail but don't let the dots touch!
Get a smaller dotting tool and create three dots on each side of the larger dots. TA DA!! Easy, right? And now, all there is left to do is dazzle. And finish it off with a top coat.
