1
Prepare your nails.
- File and shape your nails to your desired length.
- Buff the nail surface for a smooth finish.
- Apply cuticle oil and push back cuticles gently.
2
Apply the base coat.
- Apply a thin layer of base coat to protect the nails.
- Allow it to dry completely.
3
Paint the base color.
- Apply two coats of yellow nail polish, allowing each coat to dry before applying the next.
- Make sure the yellow is opaque for a vibrant look.
4
Add the white stripes.
- Using a striping brush, dip into white nail polish.
- Create vertical stripes across the nails by drawing straight lines.
- Adjust spacing as desired and let dry.

- Alternatively, place gold nail art foil for a different texture.

- Allow the top coat to dry completely.
Pro Tips
Ensure each layer is completely dry before proceeding to avoid smudging.
Practice the striping technique on a piece of paper before applying on nails for better precision.
For easier cleanup, use a cleanup brush dipped in nail polish remover around the edges of the nails.
