Good evening, readers! It’s time for another Digit-al Dozen nail art week! Are you excited? This month’s theme is Neon so get ready for some bright and fun looks! My first mani is a simple neon dotticure using the Salon Perfect Neon POP! Collection from May 2015. (I’ll have full swatches of the collection up this weekend so check back for those!) I love pairing neons with a neutral base, and white is the best for helping the bright colors pop. I started with a single dot in a random spot on each nail, and then made concentric circles around it outward with different colors and different sized dotting tools. Salon Perfect Neon POP!

  • Rice Whiteout was used as the base of this mani. While one coat is usually good enough for a nail art base, I chose to do a second for complete coverage.
  • I grabbed my biggest dotting tool and dipped it in a puddle of Salon Perfect Oh Snap! I then dotted a single dot on each nail.
  • Salon Perfect Purple POP! was the next color. I made a circle around the pink with a small dotting tool.
  • Next, I dotted medium dots of Salon Perfect Mer-Made of Money around the purple layer.
  • A tiny dotting tool and Salon Perfect Wrapped Around My Pink-y were used to dot in between the teal dots.
  • The next dotting layer was an alternating pattern of large Salon Perfect Copacabana Girl and small Salon Perfect Oh Snap!
  • I continued making circles around the previous layers on the nails that still had white space with the other colors.
  • KBShimmer Clearly on Top was used to seal everything in.

What do you think about this funky, bright dotticure? I wish my camera would actually capture the brightness of neons, but it just doesn’t. Any tips? Check out what the other Digit-al Dozen ladies did below.
