Using striping tape

Striping tape can be used in various ways and is super cheap to buy from ebay.

The most simple way is to simply paint your nail in a pretty colour and then lay the striping tape in a pattern. Then finish with clear nail polish.

Another way it can be used is to paint a base coat and then apply the striping tape, you the tale as a guide for where to paint to. Then remove the tape and add gemstones along the line.

Cute toe nail art

This is pretty simple but looks so much nicer than plain toe nails. People don't usually do nail art on their toes but I really don't understand why.

Step 1: paint your nails in a pretty base colour.
Step 2: use a large dotting tool to place 5 large spots in the shape of a flower.
Step 3: use a smaller dotting tool to spot the remaining area of the big toe and all the other toes.
Step 4: once the flower has dried, use a small dotting tool to place a black spot in the centre of the flower.
