📝 Instructions: Crafting Your Neon Drip Nails
Achieving this drip effect requires careful application to get the smooth, flowing lines.
- Prep Nails: Clean, file, and apply a base coat. Cure if using gel.
- Apply Black Base: Apply 1-2 thin coats of black polish on all nails. Cure each coat if using gel.
- Create Neon Drips:
- On a cured black base, take your desired neon color (e.g., neon pink).
- Using a dotting tool or fine brush, apply a line of polish near the cuticle area and then drag small “drips” downwards towards the tip, creating irregular, melting shapes.
- Repeat with different neon colors on other nails as desired.
- Pro Tip: For a more pronounced 3D drip, you can build up the neon polish slightly or use a thicker gel.
- Cure each neon color layer if using gel.
- Seal: Apply a glossy top coat over the entire design for shine and protection. Cure thoroughly.
- Finish: Cleanse any sticky residue. Apply cuticle oil.
