How to: Stripes

Animal Stripes:

A small advise would be to start doing this on toes as they have a larger surface area to practice on. You can start with any background and a white/black thin brush polish.


Focusing on the big toes :P start from any side. Press down the white brush and slide horizontally. U can adjust the length but anywher past the middle would be good. As u slide, lift up the brush a little (for lesser pressure) so as to create the taper effect.

Continue on alternate sides.



After that, if space allow, from the root( thickest side) draw another smaller taper creating a V-shape.

Done:)

Stripes are fun and have no restrictions, here's another way for fingers:








On a sad note, even though the orange base looks fresh and bright (Photo is a little dull), but i couldnt help missing my pink.


So this stripes only managed to stay on my fingers for a day :(



A lot of these vieos are available on youtube if u need clearer instructions :) I'm merely trying out on my own and posting on this blog
