Step 2

Using the Angel shade, paint one long, straight ear and one flopped over. Cure, then paint the inside of the rabbit’s straight ear with Gems Gel Polish in Ellie-Jade. Cure.

Step 3

Paint a curve from underneath the rabbit’s face using Gems Gel Polish in Flora. Cure, then continue the process down the nail using shades: Ellie-Jade, Erin, Lily and Lulu. Cure after applying each colour.

Step 4

Using a black art gel, paint two eyes, a nose and a mouth, curing after each application. Outline the design in the same hue and cure. Apply Martha Matte Top Coat and cure to finish.
