I know it’s been almost a week, but there’s a part of me that’s still crying inside. WHY WOULDN’T YOU BEAST IT?!?!! Anyways, back to the star of the show, Sara.

Super Bowl nails may have been my first use of tape, was a pain in the ass, but I Hate giving up, so I invented this design just to do a second attempt at tape. It worked well!

red : New York Color Long wearing nail enamel Broadway Burgundy Frost

green : Sinful Colors Professional nail color Last Chance

Scotch tape

For this design I cut blocks and strips of tape

Tape nails first!

Use a strip to cover full tip (area covered will determine how thick the finished tips are)

Place a block piece of tape, making certain to center nail laterally and, this piece of tape extends to cover full lateral half of nail. A bit redundant, but results are worth it. It helps stabilize the small tip strip so it doesn’t wiggle or other “fun” things.

At this point, you should have a bare squarish shape on each nail.

Paint the bare area green.

For mostly straight, sometimes jagged edges, wait about 15 seconds, peel tape Slowly, the bits that stretch and are stringy are the jagged edges.

For crisp clean lines, allow green to dry then slowly remove tape.

You have a blocky green shape on otherwise bare nails.

At this point, if you want to neaten the green, do it before final step.

Final step is to just carefully paint the tips, and you’re done.

And some bracelets to go with the design.
