Tropical Sun Rise

This look combines a lot of elements: a lace pattern, the ombre effect, and gold micro beads. You can try one of these ideas or combine all of them for this tropical nail art look. Here’s how to get the look:

1. Start with a clear base coat.

2. Use a nail art stamp (like Konad Nail Art Design Plate M57) and white polish to create the lace pattern on your nails.

3. Once the lace pattern has dried, it’s time to apply the ombre effect on your nails. Begin in the middle of your nail with one color, swiping the color toward the tip of the nail. Before you reach the tip of the nails, switch polish colors, so the two colors overlap in the middle. To get the colors to smoothly blend, go over the wet polish with a top coat.

4. After the ombre effect has been added to each nail, coat the entire nail with more top coat. Before the top coat has time to dry, randomly place gold micro beads on the nail. (You can find micro beads at most craft stores.) The top coat will secure the beads to the nail.
