  1. Prep nails: shape, buff, and apply a base coat, curing as directed.
  2. Apply a light blue gel polish as the base, cure. Then, using a small amount of dark blue polish and a brush dampened slightly with gel cleanser, gently dab and blend to create the watercolor effect, curing once satisfied.
  3. Using a fine detail brush and white detail gel polish, carefully draw delicate, flowing swirls across the watercolor areas, ensuring smooth lines.
  4. Once all swirls are complete and cured, apply a high-shine clear top coat over the entire design to seal and protect, then cure one final time.

Expert Tip

For a truly authentic watercolor effect, work with thin layers of gel polish and a brush lightly dampened with gel cleanser to softly diffuse and blend the colors. Practice your white swirls on a nail art palette first to achieve smooth, consistent lines.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does this Blue Watercolor design last?

With proper application and aftercare, your Blue Watercolor with White Swirls should last 2-3 weeks, depending on your nail growth and lifestyle.

Can I get this design on shorter nails?

Absolutely! While longer nails offer more canvas for the fluid watercolor, the design can be adapted beautifully to shorter lengths, focusing on a more concentrated effect.

Is the white swirl freehand or done with a stencil?

The delicate white swirls are meticulously hand-painted by our artists, ensuring a unique and organic flow for each design, making every set truly one-of-a-kind.

Will the watercolor effect fade over time?

No, once cured and sealed with a high-quality top coat, the watercolor effect and vibrant blue hues are locked in and will not fade during the wear period.

Can I customize the shades of blue used?

Yes! We can tailor the blue tones to your preference, from serene sky blues to deeper navy, to create your perfect oceanic masterpiece.

Aftercare Tips
