Start off with a base coat, I used Revlon’s “Quick Dry Base Coat.”
Next, select two mani markers of your choice and paint half of the nail either vertically or horizontally. I used Ciate London’s “Lady Luck” and “Thrill Seeker.”
Lastly, apply a top coat, I used Revlon’s “Extra Life No Chip Top Coat.”
Your easy Ciate London Mani Marker Nails are finished!
After wearing this polish for just ONE DAY it started to peel. I noticed when I first began wearing it that it looked a little funny but it began to look worse and worse and more streaky over time. It started to peel of in large amounts (which I have never had happen before). I do not think these Mani Markers are worth their price of $12 each. If you want to use the markers to paint your nail quickly and just for the night then I think they are great but not for long wear, my nail art didn’t even last a day!
Start off with a base coat, I used Revlon’s “Quick Dry Base Coat.”
Apply a background color of your choice, I used NYX’s “Bare My Soul.”
Using a small dotting tool and another color of your choice place two dots right next to each other on the nail. I used Sally Hansen’s Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear in “Black Out.”
Finish the center of the paw print making that shape into a rounded heart like shape.
Add a small dot at the tip of the area just rounded off and then two more dots (one on each side.)
Finish off the pattern by adding more all over the nail and even have some going off of the nail.
Lastly, add a top coat, I used Revlon’s “Extra Life No Chip Top Coat.”
Start off with a base coat, I used Revlon’s “Quick Dry Base Coat.”
Choose two colors of your choice (a lighter and darker shade). Apply the lighter shade as the base color. I used a Simple Pleasures mini nail polish with no name.
Using a small dotting tool and the darker shade, place dots all over the nail. I used Sally Hansen’s Hard as Nails “No Hard Feelings.”
With the same dotting tool and a white nail polish place dots over the purple dots but off center so that it is not all covered. I used Sally Hansen’s Complete Salon Manicure in “White Out.”
Lastly, apply a top coat, I used Revlon’s “Extra Life No Chip Top Coat.”

Start off with a base coat, I used Revlon’s “Quick Dry Base Coat.”
Apply a base color of your choice, I used Sally Hansen’s Complete Salon Manicure in “Almost Almond.”
Using a detail brush and a green color, start to paint the cactus shape. I did this by painting a small line going vertically on the nail and then creating two “L” shapes on each side of that line. I made these shapes all over the nail and even had some going off of the nail to give it more of a patterned look. I used Red Carpet’s “Detail Brush” and a Sally Girl mini nail polish with no name.
Using a thinner brush and a darker green or black color, give the cactus more detail by adding small dashes and lines as the spikes all over the cactus. I used Winstonia’s “Berry Wine” brush and MAC’s “Before Dawn.”
Add small flowers on every other cactus by using a color of your choice and a very small dotting tool. I used Sinful Color’s “Soul Mate.”
Lastly, apply a top coat, I used Revlon’s “Extra Life No Chip Top Coat.”
