I do my nails pretty well with both hands, but I don't have all the special tools for dots or really fine lines. I'm not a fan of fake nails so any one have any ideas for simple nail designs?

I love doing my nails too & always use diy things like pencil, or bobby pin to create dots. Try Polka dots, colored tips, all nails one color & glitter on an accent finger, leopard. (:

She pretty much hit the nail on the head.. Bobby pins, tooth pics, pencils. Pixiepolish on YouTube does her designs with a toothpick :)

You can use tape and a sponge too! You can make ombre with cosmetic sponge and it's super easy!

Hi Alessia! There are lots of things you could use like bobby pins, toothpicks or even scotch tape depending on the design (: maybe try using tape for something like this?

Or if you prefer something girly, you can try this? It looks hard but all I really did was use a toothpick (:
