Stripes!

Just a quick design/ tutorial for you all. 

For this you will need 

1) A black polish 

2) A striper

3) A white polish

4) A cear topcoat if you want it to shine

5) Or like me, a matte topcoat, to dull the nails.

What to do:

1) Paint your nails 2-3 coats of white polish (white tends to be a really see through polish, so this may take a while! Although, the polish doesn't need to be really opaque because it will be hidden partially by the stripes)

2) Dip the striper into the black polish and wipe the sides so it has quite a small amount of polish on it.

3) Starting in the middle of your nail, drag the striper from the bottom of your nail up to the top. If you have a shaky hand you may want to rest it on a surface to steady yourself.

4) Repeat this on the left and the right of the original stripe and depending on your nail shape you might want to fit in more stripes.

5) Repeat this for all nails

6) Seriosuly wait for them to dry! I don't mean sit there with a stern look on your face, I just mean give it a serious amount of drying time before applying the topcoat as (learning from experience) if you do it too soon it will smudge all of the black polish, and cause it to seep into the white! 

And that's it. As you can see, up close mine isn't perfect but when other people look at them they hardly notice. Good luck! And-a-Topcoat. xxx
