If you don’t have striping tape, a thin brush can be used to paint lines directly.
Use a quick-dry top coat to accelerate the drying process for busy schedules.
Consider practicing your designs on a nail wheel beforehand for confidence.
Take your time with the geometric patterns to achieve a clean and professional look.
