When it dries, make a thin brush with perpendicular strips, imitating the pattern of a waffle cup. Ice cream balls can be made colorful. The final touch can be put using a varnish with sparkles.
Use the top to level the surface. If you use regular varnishes, it is advisable to complete the manicure with a fixative.

Stamping
The popularity of stamps for manicure is growing exponentially. Not surprising, because this technique allows you to get excellent results.
You will need a stamping plate with an ice cream pattern. Put a drop of black varnish or special paint on it, carefully align it with a spatula, print on the stamp. Turning it over, gently paint the ice cream cone and balls with colored varnishes (use a thin brush for painting, the varnish brushes are too large for this). Press the stamp to the nail, transferring the print. Cover with a top and dry. It remains only to remove the sticky layer (if any).
Easy way - sliders
An even simpler method involves the use of ready-made decorative elements. It can be decals or stickers. It is very easy to use them, it is enough to strictly follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Stickers should be carefully placed on nails with completely dried varnish. They already hold well, but if desired, they can be covered with a layer of top (if you do gel manicure).
Decals need to be cut into pieces, immersed in water so that the paper coating detaches. It is convenient to use tweezers to move pictures to nails. In the case of decals, a topcoat is required. If you are doing regular manicure, cover your nails with a fixative or clearcoat.
If you decide to make an ice cream manicure, do not overload your nails with decor. It is enough to decorate a few fingers with sweets, cover the remaining nails with a monophonic coating, harmonizing in color with the pattern.
Time and place
A bright summer manicure with ice cream will look ridiculous at an interview, in a reputable office, at an exam. But on the beach, in a nightclub, on a trip or on an excursion in a tropical country, such a nail design can make a splash.
