Getting your fingernails done is almost an obligation, but many forget how much a good impression a well-cared for foot makes, as well as making it super delicate. Most people prefer monocratic nail polish to their feet, but the same decorations that are made on fingernails can also be made on toenails. Follow 3 options below decorated toe nails!

Decorated toe nails: French nails with flowers
Have it on hand:
- white, lace, base and pink nail polishes
- fine pincel
- shine
- cotton swab to help apply gloss
- finger separator
Nails decorated step by step
1. Apply two layers of lace polish to all your nails. If you wish, you can opt for the base too.
2. On the big toe and with the white nail polish, make a stripe across the corner of the nail. Do the same thing on the other side of the nail too (see photo above).
3. Still on the big toe, with the help of a fine brush, in one of the corners of the nail, close to the cuticle, brush five petals, imitating a flower (see photo above).
4. In the other corner of the nail, make another flower, however, a little smaller.
5. Make 4 spirals (but only one turn each) around the largest flower. Two at the bottom of the flower and two more at the top.
6. Make two more spirals next to the smaller flower.
7. Still using the white nail polish, make small white dots on the nail, wherever you want.
8. With the pink nail polish and the help of a thin brush, paint the petals of the two flowers.
9. Now, apply a little base on the nail and start applying the shine with the help of a cotton swab and when it dries, finish with more base to add shine.
10. Repeat the same process on all nails or leave it just on the big toe.
OBS: Use a finger separator to avoid the risk of bumping one nail against another and damaging it.

Decorated toe nails: Colorful dots
Have on hand:
- orange, black, green, gold, white and purple nail polishes
- fine pincel
- baller or clamp
- finger separator
Decorated nails: caviar effect, plush and two-tone oval
1. Using the orange nail polish, apply two layers to your big toe nail.
2. With the help of a ballader (or a clamp as an alternative), drop 6 small, not very small balls – in the colors black, green, gold, white and purple – spread across the big toe nail (with spaces between them).
3. With the fine brush, now make smaller dots all over the nail with the colors purple and green.
4. Now with the white nail polish and the baller, where it fits, make medium balls.
5. Fill in the spaces, dripping balls in the colors you want and whatever size you want. But, always leave small spaces between them.
6. Finish with foundation to add shine.
7. Repeat this process on all nails or just the big toe. Or decorate your big toe and polish your other nails with just one of the colors used in the decoration.

Decorated toenails: Smudged effect with feather
Have on hand:
- Black or coffee, pink, white, yellow, green and gold nail polishes.
- Boleador or clamp.
- A shame (that’s right, a shame to make the effect blurry).
Nails decorated with flowers
1. Polish all your nails in coffee or black.
2. Separate small mounds of nail polish in a container, in the colors pink, yellow, green, coffee and gold.
3. Take the pen and run its tip over all the dollops of nail polish to create a mixture of colors.
4. Now run the pen over your thumb nail gently and diagonally to give a nice smudged effect. Do this process on all your nails, always applying more nail polish to the pen if necessary.
5. With the white nail polish and with the help of a clip or ballast, make 3 groups of 3 dots on the big toe (like a little paw) in one of the corners of the nails. For the other nails, make just 3 dots on each corner of the nail. (See photo above).
6. Finish with foundation to add shine.
