Play button
Daisy nail art is cheerful and easy! We’re giving you the step-by-step instructions for creating daisy nails on a milky background. All you need is your dip powder kit and a stylus tool for dotting on the daisy design.
PRO TIP: Make sure you thoroughly prep nails to ensure adhesion & long-lasting wear! Push back cuticles, create a rough texture on the nail plate by filing, and sanitize thoroughly.

A nail dotting tool or a blunt toothpick! This will help create a precise and consistent circle.

Step 1
  • Apply a thin coat of Step 1 Bond. Allow it to dry completely.
Step 2
  • Apply a thin coat of Step 2 Base and immediately dip finger into Base & Finish powder.

PRO TIP: Avoid getting the product onto cuticles, powder will pick up wherever Base is applied.

Step 3
  • Carefully apply a second coat of Step 2 Base and immediately dip into color powder of choice. We are using MK-13.
Step 4
  • Repeat for more coverage.
  • Clean up edges with our Jelly Pusher or with a pointed tool. Tap finger to remove loose powder and use a fluffy brush to sweep off excess.

PRO TIP: Brushes may harden or pick up color powder during application. Simply switch them between Brush Softener for easy cleaning & workability.

Step 5
  • Add a few droplets of Step 2 Base on a small piece of foil.
Step 6
  • Using a dotting tool, or a similar utensil, apply several dots of Step 2 Base to the nail. These will be the center of each Daisy.
  • Gently scoop shade CL-66 over the nail.
Step 7
  • Use a dotting tool to apply Step 2 Base, this time, to create the daisy petals around the yellow dots. Immediately scoop French White dip powder over the dots, and tap to remove loose powder. Be sure to work one flower at a time!
Step 8
  • Repeat until each daisy is complete.
Step 9
  • Apply another coat of Step 2 Base and immediately dip finger into Base & Finish powder.
Step 10
  • Apply a coat of Step 3 Activator. Allow 3-5 minutes for powder to harden.

PRO TIP: If you live in a humid climate, you may need to increase your dry time.

Step 11
  • File & buff the nails until you’ve achieved the desired shape and smoothness.
Step 12
  • Wash hands or use a lint-free wipe saturated in alcohol to wipe nails clean.

PRO TIP: Make sure nails are completely dry before moving to the next step!

Step 13
  • Apply a second coat of Step 3 Activator. Allow 3-5 minutes for nails to dry.

PRO TIP: If you live in a humid climate, you may need to increase your dry time.

Step 14
  • Before moving on, wipe down nails with a dry lint-free wipe to remove excess Activator that may remain on the nail surface.
Step 15
  • Apply a thin coat of Step 4 Sealer in thin quick strokes. Allow 2-3 minutes for nails to dry.
  • Apply a final coat of Step 4 Sealer, making sure to seal in the free edges. Allow 3-5 minutes for nails to dry completely.

PRO TIP: Don't apply more than 2 coats of Sealer as this will prevent even drying & may result in a gummy mani.
