Start off with a base coat, then paint your nails two coats of your primary color. The best method to apply polish is to stroke the brush down the middle of the nail, then down each side.

Paint the exposed part of your accent nail with your accent color. Carefully peel off each piece of tape. Do this right after you paint the nail; don't let the polish dry before you remove the tape.
