Simple Fox Nail Art for beginners


Would you like to know how I created this cute Fox inspired nail look? Look no further! 

You will need:

1 Rusty toned nail varnish (or whatever colour you want your Fox to be)
1 Black nail varnish/nail art pen (will be used for detailing)
1 White nail varnish/ nail art pen (will be used for detailing) 
1 nail art tool (thin)/cocktail stick/ pointy thing for detailing 



Now I'm working on the assumption here, that your nails are clean and prepped (filed, buffed and base coat applied). So our first step is to apply an all over base coat of your colour of choice. I used a light rusty orange with a slight shimmer, but really it's personal choice. 



After two coats of this, or when you are entirely happy with the coverage, WAIT UNTIL IT IS COMPLETELY DRY before continuing with the next step. Looking at your nail as the top being the nail bed, and the bottom being the tip, create two triangles of white that meet in the centre of the nails at the tip.


Please excuse the mess, but it all washes off! OK. So think of these white triangles as the Fox's muzzle. The next step is really gonna bring this little chap to life, using either a black nail art pen or your nail tool and varnish, you're gonna wanna add in a little triangle between the two white triangles, for his Iddybiddy nose.


Can you tell what it is yet?! You're nearly there! The next steps are quick and easy, and pretty self explanatory. Two eyes and some whiskers. Little black lined white triangles for his ears, and your work here is done! 

  
FOXES!
