Wow! It looks amazing. Where did you get the nail guides from? I'm rubbish at doing that bit.

I need to copy this...it looks amazing. I've tried to do tips before but never managed to get them this neat before, it never struck me to get nails guides!

Oh, I really like that look. I'd need the nail tip guides too, they'd be a mess if I tried to do it freehand.

Looks great! No matter how hard I tried, I probably wouldn't be able to get my nails to look that good. Love that shade of polish!

Thats exactly the same as how I do it.

Looks gorgeous. What gold polish did you use?

Love it x

Beautifully done. I'm nervous about putting the guides on too soon and ruining the first color or removing the guides too soon and smearing the second color. I guess it just requires a little patience!

Jo - the gold polish comes as part of the YSL Couture Manicure Set; Beautifullyinternational - I left 10 minutes after applying topcoat of Seche before putting the guides on..it was fine, and LeanneOCD - got the guides from some random site on the internet...just google!

Love this! Thanks for posting. Were the other colors ever available in the UK? I never saw them here in the US. Jo- the guides are available in drugstores in the US.

Oh that's stunning, very Biba.
I used to be a beauty columnist, I must say I really miss all the packages I used to come home to!

It looks so neat! I am completely useless at applying nail varnish so this may be a bit out of my league!

Forget nail guides, they always leak! Best use painters tape or masking tape and form a curve!

you can also try to paint from one side to the other instead of from the top toward the nail. easier.
