Beautiful Nail Art description

Aztec nail art being reminiscent to African tribal nails, infuses loads of colors, shapes and bold patterns. These designs can be done with either gel colors, or the regular paints, and looks amazing in both, matte and gloss. These might seem tedious to you at first, but they are very easy to do, 'cause there's ample room to customize and create your own.

We have a collection of cool nail designs to inspire you.

DIY Tutorial for Aztec Nails
Follow this step-by-step tutorial and master yourself in Aztec.

Things you'll need:
✦ Base coat and top coat nail polish
✦ A variety of colors, neon polishes or other bright colors
✦ Fine nail art pens/thin nail art brushes
✦ Pastels or acrylic paints (optional)
✦ Manicure strips or thin sellotape (optional if you have a good grip over using nail art pens)
✦ Cotton swabs and thinner
✦ A little creativity, and a lot of patience

Assemble all the supplies, remove previous paint (if any) from your nails, and get started!

Step 1: Apply a thin layer of base coat on your nails. After it dries completely, apply the nail paint of your choice. We have used a shade of red. Now, using a thin nail art brush, create a thick vertical line from base of your nail towards the tip. We are using black in contrast to red.
Step 2: Outline the black thick line with white thin lines on both the sides using white nail art pen, as shown in step 2.
Step 3: Now go about making zigzags on the black patch.
Step 4: With a different color paint, add dots between the zigzags (or roughly the triangles formed). We've used orange here.
Step 5: Go about making small triangles (or any Aztec pattern) at the outer edge as shown.
Step 6: Seal your Aztec with a top coat polish. Let it dry.
Step 7: Using cotton swabs and thinner solution, clean up splodges around the nails. You could add rhinestones or gems to glitter your nails.
And this is what you get ...
