I love mixing and matching wacky and crazy colors with the classic french tip style. Red and black go great together. Or black with neon tips are trippy too! Feedback is appreciated :3

Instructions

  1. Small cimg3053 1273447963

    Supplies: scissors scotch tape red/black nail polish remover Q-tips top coat

  2. Small cimg3056 1273448015

    Cut strips from the scotch tape and place them evenly across the nail tip.

  3. Small cimg3059 1273448051

    then paint over the entire nail (over the scotch tape) with black nail polish. Note: To avoid bubbles paint the middle part of the nail then one side at a time.

  4. Small cimg3061 1273448137

    Carefully peel off the tape, pulling the tape gently towards the nail, this makes sure that any grabby polish falls back against the color not the clear spot

  5. Small cimg3066 1273448207

    Paint the tips red next, making sure to pat the brush so no color overlaps the black.

    Finally add a quick drying top coat! Be careful while your nails dry. Even though the topcoat is dry doesnt mean that you cant get dents or other nicks. *one hour per coat*
