Tips for Making Ladybug Nail Art Last
Ladybug art is built from small, raised details, so seal it under a generous glossy top coat and refresh it every few days to stop the spots and outlines wearing at the edges. If you are painting at home, work over a pale base so the red stays bright, use a dotting tool for even spots, and let each colour dry fully before adding the next — red painted over wet black is exactly how ladybugs get smudged. A quick wipe with a lint-free pad before the top coat keeps the finish glassy.
From a single tiny bug on a sheer nail to a whole garden crawling across stilettos, ladybug nails are pure good mood. Pick your favourite, book the appointment, and let your hands bring the garden with you.
