DIY | Pointed Manicure

Nail colours and designs are a great way to add character to your look without going over the top. I especially like the pointed manicure look, that has been worn by Rihanna and Beyoncé recently. And so, I have decided to do a spot of 'DIY'! I am going to show you how to do it without the hassle of a professional nail artist.

Start with neat & clean nails.

So...begin with two contrasting colours of your choice;

Next, apply your chosen base colour;

For the pointed line you are going to begin by drawing one diagonal line from the top left third of the nail to the top centre of the nail;

Then, we are going to do the exact same, only on the opposite side of the nail to create your triangular shape;

Finish with a top coat of your choice to ensure long-lasting colourful nails!

Have fun with this simple look.
