Nail Art: How To Master The Perfect Print

Print created using acrylic paint and a dotting tool.

An artist is only as good as their tools, and the creative world of nail art is no exception.

Nailing the perfect print may scream simple, but recreating this popular trend isn't always as easy as it looks - particularly if you're new to the world of nail art or prone to a shaky hand.

A great tip to aid the improvement of your technique is to practice using a dotting tool and acrylic paint. This basic combo will not only allow you to maintain control and adjust to holding a tool, it will also create a precise, build-able design without the fading and flooding often associated with using a thick brush and nail enamel.

Top Tip: Enjoy the versatile world of nail art and have fun. Don't be afraid to experiment and express yourself using texture, colour or contrasts - creativity has no limits.
