How to Make Panda Nail Art

11/10/2013

This cute panda nail design is easy to make and will instantly brighten your day. You only need a few items, and it doesn't take too long to master.



Edit Steps



Method One: White, Black, and Pink Design



  1. Gather your materials.

  2. Paint your nails with one coat of white. Let dry.



  3. Add another coat of the white to make sure it's opaque. Let dry.



  4. Paint two black dots where the eyes should be and let them dry.



  5. Add two more black dots where the ears will be.



  6. Take your pink and put a dot right under the eyes. This is the nose.



  7. Take blue, green, or white and put a dot on both of the eyes so you have a cute little cross eyed panda.



  8. If you wish you can put a pink dot in each ear.



  9. Top with a clear coat and you are done!





White and Black Design



  1. Gather your supplies. You don't want to be searching for nail polish with wet nails! To complete this step, see the list of required supplies under "Things You'll Need" below.

  2. Start with a base coat to protect your nails. This will keep your nails shiny and helps the polish stay on longer.

  3. Apply a large circle on the top half of your nails with the white nail polish. Don't worry about messing up - you can clean it with some nail polish remover.

    • Be careful to ensure that that the circle dries thoroughly before moving on to the remaining steps.



  4. Use your dotting tool to create two ears with the black nail polish.

  5. Add the eyes at the lower half of the large white circle with the black nail polish.

    • Add the nose right beneath the eyes.



  6. After the eyes have dried, add two smaller circles with the white nail polish.

    • Make sure everything is dry before proceeding to the next step, otherwise your design might smudge.



  7. Apply the top coat after the eyes and nose are completely dry. This will protect your nails and the design from chipping. See the introduction image for the final design.

  8. Finished.

  • You can use different colors for the background.



Edit Warnings



  • Check the contents of your nail polish at the Skin Deep Cosmetics Database: http://www.ewg.org/skindeep/. Some nail polishes contain toxic ingredients.
