Sprinkle Nail Art & Minty Ice Cream

What better way to top off a tasty frozen treat than with some peppy sprinkle nail art? "It's good to start with a nice bright base so all your dots really pop," says Torello. "You can get a dotting tool on Amazon or even use a toothpick to create the sprinkles. Start at the tip of the nail with your first color, add a few dots, then do the same with your next color. I try and start with just a few of each color I've chosen because you can always add more. When choosing the colors, try and pick bright, contrasting colors — oranges, bright greens, light or vibrant blues, and purples are always fun together."
