In need of a fresh manicure but you're still waiting for Phase 3 to commence before you head down to a nail salon? Then it's time for a DIY paint job. If you're bored of plain old nail polish and tired of waiting for your coats to dry, however, we have a suggestion: nail pens.

With fine or flat brush tips, nail pens make it easy to draw on intricate designs and patterns. Plus, your 10 digits will be dry in no time, so you don't have to blow at your nails or dip them in a bath of cold water. Think of it as the adult version of painting your nails with a highlighter pen (we know you've tried it at least once when you were younger).

If you're ready to have some fun, here are the nail pens to add to your collection! But before that, let us give you a quick introduction to nail pens and how to use them.

How to use a nail pen

First, decide if you want a coloured base. A bright background can make your nail design pop, but if you want to keep things simple, a clear background using regular topcoat looks great too.

To shade in your base colour, use a nail pen with an angled brush tip. This will give you more coverage in one swipe. Go over it twice or thrice to build up the opacity.

For pens with a pointed, marker-like tip, you can use them to draw on anything you please. Experiment with dots and stripes if you're still getting the hang of it. Once you're more comfortable, you can play up your illustrations and patterns. Here's some nail inspo for your next nail pen art!
