Create designs on accent nails.

Pro Tips
Ensure each layer of polish dries completely before adding new designs on top.
Use quick-dry top coat to speed up the drying process.
Remove striping tape while the polish is still wet to avoid smudging.
If new to nail art, practice patterns on paper or fake nails before applying to your own.
