Monster Mickey step-by-stepMonster Mickey step-by-step1. Apply one layer of orange gel polish and cure. Apply another layer, but skip curing just yet. 
2. Sprinkle orange glitter on the wet gel polish, then cure. Finish with a matte top coat.
3. Paint a cross in the center of the nail using black gel paint. Connect the ends of the cross, then fill in the circle with black gel paint. Repeat the same process for the ears, then cure.
4. Apply white gel paint using a large dotting tool to create Mickey's oval eyes. Move the gel up and down with the tool until you achieve your desired effect.
