Nail Art Tutorial

Black and White Negative Space Nails – Tutorial

YOU WILL NEED:
Black and white opaque nail polish
A ridge filling base
A glossy top coat
A matte topcoat
Striping tape

HOW TO:

• Start by prepping your nails. With negative space manicures the condition and color of your nails are particularly important. So first apply your usual nail strengthener and follow up with a ridge filler base to ensure flawlessly smooth and evenly colored nail plate.
• Once the base is dry, apply nail art tape in graphic shapes as pictured on all nails.
• Paint over each nail with one coat of either black or white nail polish.
• Now work one nail at a time. Apply second coat of either black or white polish (depending with each finger you start this step) and accurately remove the tape. Repeat on all fingers.
• Accurately clean up around cuticle.
• Apply a glossy top coat over all finger nails, except for the middle finger – use a matte top coat over it.
