HOW TO: FRESHLY PICKED TIPS NAIL ART

Brighten up your manicure with a floral design that’s fresh, feminine and full of charm. Created by @simlynail using shades from our Forget Mii Not collection, this daisy-inspired nail art features soft pink tones and delicate details – perfect for embracing a light, summery aesthetic all season long.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED

Perfect Peony – A radiant strawberry sorbet crème
Dainty Orchid – A dreamy angel pink crème
Cherry Blossom – An iconic baby pink crème
Peach Petals – A sweet peach pink crème
Birthday Suit – A light nude crème

STEP 1: PREP + PAINT YOUR BASE

Begin with clean, shaped nails. Apply To Have + To Hold Base Coat to smooth and protect the nail surface. Once dry, follow with two coats of Birthday Suit, our elegant nude shade that provides a perfect canvas for your design.

STEP 2: FRENCH TIP

For a soft twist on the classic French manicure, use Cherry Blossom to paint a curved tip on the thumb, middle and pinky nails. This subtle detail adds a polished, playful touch.

STEP 3: FLOWER POWER

Using a thin nail brush, paint flower petals using Perfect Peony, Dainty Orchid, Cherry Blossom and Peach Petals. Each flower should be made with 3–4 strokes meeting at the centre, finished with a central dot to form a delicate bloom.

STEP 4: SCATTERED IN STYLE

To create a balanced, scattered look:

  • Add two daisies to the thumb, middle, and pinky
  • Three on the ring finger
  • Four on the index
  • Add some extra dots in the centre of the nail using our Neat + Tidy Dotting Tool to add balance and extra interest

Mix and match your pinks across the nails for a whimsical, hand-painted finish.

STEP 5: TOP IT OFF

Once your floral art is dry, seal with our Shine + Shield Top Coat. It locks in colour, adds mirror-like shine and helps your dreamy daisy mani last even longer.
