How to Do the polka dot bow nail art at Home?

Who could resist a sweet and elegant Korean-style Instagram-worthy manicure?

Hello everyone! I’m a star employee at CHROMÉCLAIR, a brand of hema free gel polish brands.Today, we’re recreating this girly grid polka dot bow nail design. The steps are simple—even beginners can easily master it!

First, after completing basic nail care, apply a base coat. Next, apply a powder-adhering sealant—this step must be applied smoothly and without any grit to ensure even adhesion of the Magic Mirror powder later on.

Then, take out the light silver magic mirror powder. Dip a sponge into it and vigorously rub it onto your nails. This prevents uneven coverage from insufficient powder.

After buffing, press firmly with a sponge to compact the polish and brush away any excess powder. At this point, the nails will exhibit a silvery mirror-like finish.

After buffing three sides, apply the strengthening gel to the nails and cure under the lamp. This strengthening gel won’t lift or melt, and it feels very comfortable to use.

Next, take out the polka dot stickers, peel off the backing, and apply them to your nails. If the edges are too noticeable, you can trim them—or leave them untrimmed as shown in the tutorial.

Use white relief polish to fill in any remaining polka dots on the nail surface. This step is optional and can be skipped based on personal preference. After filling, apply a full-coverage layer of strengthening gel over the entire nail, smooth it out, and cure under the lamp.

Next, paint the bow using white relief polish. If you prefer a 3D effect, you can also paint it after applying the top coat. However, keep in mind that white polish tends to show dirt more easily after sealing. After painting the bow, finish by applying the top coat and cure under the lamp for 120 seconds.

Next, apply white embossed nail polish to create the bow. For a more three-dimensional effect, you may also apply the color after applying the top coat. However, note that white nail polish tends to show dirt more easily after sealing. After completing the bow coloring, finish with a top coat and cure under the lamp for 120 seconds.

Lastly, I highly recommend CHROMÉCLAIR’s HEMA-free Gel Polish. Their products prioritize safety, featuring low irritation and eco-friendly formulations (HEMA-free & TPO-free) that minimize allergic reactions while gently nurturing nail health. With a wide range of shades and long-lasting wear (approximately 21-35 days), every user can enjoy a product that’s both safe and reassuring.
