HOW TO DO IT
Start with a base of the pale polish. I'm using one meant for a French manicure. You can also just start with bare nails, but this adds a more polished (PUN ALERT) finish.
Use the small end of a dotting tool (or a nail art brush) to draw a curved line that looks like the top of an apple [a] across the middle of a nail. Fill in the space below the line to create the apple [b].
Repeat on all nails, using different shades.
Use the brown nail polish to add a small stem above each apple shape.
Use the green striper or the green polish on a brush or tool to add a leaf shape next to each stem.
For a fun variation, create a sliced open apple by painting a white shape that mimics the apple shape inside one of your apples. Add two black dots for seeds.
Use the dotting tool or a brush to add a white highlight mark on the right edge of each apple.
Finish with top coat.
I know bananas come in a bunch, but what do apples come in? Whatever that is, you have one now!
