Watermelon Nail Art Tutorial (Using Acrylic Paints)


Living in a tropical country, I have a wide selection of sweet and juicy fruits. One of my personal favorites is watermelon! It's green on the outside and red on the inside with tiny little black seeds. It's super sweet and succulent.


Did you know that  watermelon is made out of 92% of water? That's why it's the perfect fruit to bring to the beach. You won't be dehydrated at all.


Moving on, since I have so much love for this fruit, I decided to paint it on my nails. Now, I will show you how to do a very basic Watermelon Nails Tutorial. This Watermelon Nail Art will surely make you smile because it's not only cute, it's an ultimate eye-catcher!

  1. How did you make the seeds so perfectly? What kind of brush did you use? I've been wanting to do a watermelon mani for the summer.
