Striped nail

The range of nail arts grows by the day, allowing you to choose the decoration that suits you best.

The only child is an excellent choice for those who want a more discreet decoration. Plus you still have the ability to change the only daughter's decor easier than if you had to change it on all nails.

For our striped nail we chose two different shades of blue nail polish, one lighter and one darker. It is important that the color chosen for nail decoration is stronger than the base for the stripes to gain prominence.


To perform the decoration of striped nails you will need two different colors of nail polish. We opted for the? Blue Horizon? from the Africa à Colorama Collection Africa for the base (average price R $ 3,00) and for the stripes the? Bionic Blue? from the collection As Super Cores, also from Colorama (average price R $ 3,00).

You will also need a large piece of tape cut into strips of different widths (average price $ 4.00 a roll), nail stick, cotton, acetone and an extra gloss to finish.


The first step is to apply two layers of the chosen nail polish to the base on all nails. Wipe off excess with cotton, toothpick and acetone and allow to dry for approximately 40 minutes. This is an important step as the nail base has to be very dry before starting the decoration.

Once the nails are well dried, cut the tape to different widths and glue horizontally over the chosen single daughter nail. Use a toothpick to aid in securing the tape. Pay attention and check that the tape is well glued before starting the application with the second enamel color.

With the well-fixed tapes apply a layer of the darkest nail polish on the only child nail. This step has to be done carefully as the dark enamel cannot leak under the tape. We advise you to use a nail polish that has a good coverage, so only one layer is needed to cover the nail.

Before removing the masking tape, allow the nail polish to dry for approximately half an hour. Once dry, carefully remove the tape from the nail and wipe off any excess. To finish apply a layer of top coat to finish.

This is a very democratic decoration, as well as choosing your favorite color combination you can also arrange the ribbons horizontally, vertically or diagonally. Use creativity and raze with the striped nail.
