Self-Nail Arrangement taught by Yoko Nishida from STELLA45
Yoko Nishida from STELLA45 taught us three arrangements, focusing on the five new nail colors from the 2025 SUMMER MAKEUP COLLECTION "New Beginning." The themes are hot air balloons, the phases of the moon, and waves. Enjoy these mysterious summer nails with a dignified gentleness at home.

44 Itsumademo
27 Menou 
36 Wakaremichi
37 IbaraSTEP
01. Apply one coat of 44 Itsumademo.02. Use correction tape to draw random lines.
03. Apply 601 Yakouressha, 602 Kuchibue, 27 Menou, 36 Wakaremichi, and 37 Ibara randomly over the correction tape, slightly overlapping.
POINT //
It's okay if the correction tape isn't perfectly applied. That will create irregular shapes and movement.

46 HoshimeguriSTEP
01. Apply one coat of 46 Hoshimeguri.02. Dip a brush in water, pick up white acrylic paint, and lightly draw a full moon on the thumb.
03. For the other nails, adjust the amount of paint to draw the moon in its waxing and waning phases, with the pinky finger as a crescent moon.
04. Layer 45 Hyouka as the shadow of the moon.
POINT //
We also recommend applying 45 Hyouka as a base, with shadows from 46 Hoshimeguri.

01 Kitto
35 TsubasaSTEP
01. Apply two coats of 35 Tsubasa to the thumb, 601 Yakouressha to the index and ring fingers, 01 Kitto to the middle finger, and 45 Hyouka to the pinky finger.02. Cut four pieces of masking tape into a wave shape for the thumb and pinky finger.
03. Apply the masking tape and layer 601 Yakouressha (sold out) along the wave shape. Drip one drop of 601 Yakouressha onto a palette and dab with a cotton swab to blend (refer to the HOW TO video).
04. Draw three lines on the index finger with 01 Kitto. Layer 35 Tsubasa over the lines.
POINT //
When drawing lines with 01 Kitto on the index finger, intentionally leave brushstroke marks behind.
When drawing seemingly difficult waves, draw lines with powerful, confident strokes.
Any slight blurring or smudging is not a mistake but adds character, so embrace it.
