Tutorial : Chevron Colorblock Nails

Hi Friends, I created a step-by-step tutorial for you all for the Chevron colorblock nail art from my last post.


For this nail art you would need -
1. Nail Polishes.
2. Chevron Tape.
3. Top Coat.
4. Base Coat.
5. Scissors.


Step 1. To start, first paint your nails with a base coat to protect your nails.

Step 2. When the base coat is dry, on top of it paint your nails with a base polish. I used Formula X's Dainty White polish.


Step 3. On the top of the nail, cover 1/4th of the nail with navy polish. I did it free-hand, you can use a tape for more accuracy, though here accuracy doesnt matter as we will be covering the lines with other nail polishes. Also make sure you polish dries completely, before you attempt step 4.


Step 4. Cut the chevron tape using scissors into multiple stripes and stick them on the nail as shown in the picture below. Make sure they are sticking to the nail and are not loose.


Step 5. Color the pink and neon blocks as shown below. I used Zoya's Lolly for Pink and Claire's Sunshine for Neon.


Step 6. Slowly remove the chevron tape and ta-da you now you have the colorblocked chevron pattern on your nails.


Step 7. Seal the design with your favorite top coat. I used Formula X's top coat.
