Easy daisy nail art

I came up with this über cute nail design that is reminiscent of daisies. It looks cool and is super easy to do. I can barley paint my nails on my right hand and i was still able to do the design on it without it coming out too bad. 

You will need:
a white/silver/light grey polish
two polishes of contrasting colours 

Turquoise: Ciate Headliner 
Silver: Revlon Aloof
Purple: Sally Hansen Be-jeweled 

white: Covergirl Outlast Snow Storm
Purple: Ciate cabaret
Pink: OPI meep meep meep


  1. Start with a base coat to prevent staining and strengthen your nails.
  2. Paint one to two coats of your first colour. I personally like to use a a darker or more subtle cream colour as my base colour.
  3. Next you take your neutral colour and make three straight lines in one corner of your nail, a vertical, diagonal and horizontal one. Black can also be used but the lighter colour makes it look fresher in my opinion. 
  4. Take your other colour, a bright one or a glitter works best, and repeat step three, this time starting slightly higher up so that you leave about 3 millimeters of the last colour exposed. If you are using a glitter, you may have to use a stippling motion or do two coats to make it opaque. 
  5. Penultimately, take your neutral colour and make a dot where the three lines meet to form the centre of your flower.
  6. The final step is to apply a top coat to seal in your hard work!
Don't forget to let the polish dry between each step.
Another cool combination I think would be a black base with a white and silver flower for a monochromatic look.
