As always, start with base coat and base color and let it
completely dry before moving on. This
next step is completely optional but if you want to achieve super straight
lines, you can give this method a try, instead of using the striper brush and
adding them in freehand. So we're going
to use some striping tape and cut them into smaller sections. Get a few strips ready before applying them onto
the nail. Using a finger to help hold
down the tape, make any adjustments if needed and line them on the nail leaving
even gaps in between.

Then apply a black nail polish all over the nail and
quickly peel the strips off to get the super straight line effect. If the lines didn't come out as clean, you
can go over with the base color to cover any spots. Although your still using the striping brush,
it’s a lot easier to fix up certain areas than creating super straight lines
using only the striper. Next I'm just using the brush that came with the black
nail polish to section off the tip of the nail with 3 curved bumps. So Start small and build towards the shape that
you want. Then use a thin brush to line
the curved tips. Now for the Open Curtain design. I'm just going to use the striper brush. Draw 2 curved lines towards the top of the
nail and color in the tip. Add 3 lines
on either side to represent the curtains, then line the tip edge with a white
striper brush. Now use a dotting tool to
add polka dots to the Special shaped French tip and do the same for the
remaining nails Using the Moon and Star shaped Nail Stickers available at
Meliney. com start placing them onto the nail.
If you put it in the center of the nail, it will look like it's the star
of the show. And if you don't want to
get the stickers, you can totally drawing the star and moon shapes instead with
a detail brush. Once you’re done, Add
top coat to secure the decals and presto. Youtube Channel
