Minion nails.



These Despicable Me nails are fun, easy and creative to do. All you have to do is follow the steps below to perfect the minion look:


  • Paint all nails except from your middle finger nail. I chose models own 'Prussian blue nail polish' (it looks a lot darker on the image than it does normally) I chose this dark blue because I thought it worked well with the bright yellow, and helps it stand out more.
  • You then paint your middle finger with a bright yellow, again I chose models own because its a long lasting nail polish and the yellow I chose is called 'Aciiied nail polish'.
  • Once all nails are dry give them another coat of polish.
  • When you have finally finished adding your extra coat of nail polish you can then start on your main design.
  • Paint about a quarter of the end of your nail a dark blue to match the others, make sure you do a couple of coats as it can sometimes look green when you first do it.
  • Then when you have done that start at the top paint a white circle, again make sure to go over it so the white polish stands out. Don't worry if you don't have a perfect circle you can always correct it later.
  • When the circle is dry carefully paint a grey circle around it.
  • After that draw to black lines either side of the grey circle and a line underneath the circle which will make the mouth you can either do it straight, wonky or even draw a little tongue to give it character. Also don't forget to draw a small black circle in the middle of the white circle to complete the eye.
