Finish nail prep by filing and shaping each nail's end in the shape of an oval. Mini egg nails are the latest spring nail trend.Mini egg nails are the latest spring nail trend.
  2. Mini eggs come in four colors: white, yellow, pink and purple. Pick a pastel nail varnish for each of the colors. Next, paint each of the fingers a different shade, and repeat a color on the fifth nail.
  3. Place a drop of black nail varnish on a wipeable surface. After this, grab an old toothbrush, and repurpose it. Dip your toothbrush gently into the nail varnish, so only the tops of each toothbrush bristle is covered.
  4. Dot the black nail varnish onto the nails to create the spotty effect of a mini egg.
  5. After the design has dried, go over the nails with a matte top coat to finish. 

Remind your clients not to bite their nails because this design is going to look delicious enough to eat!
