Candystripe Nail Art
This nail art tastes just like candy! Well, erm, maybe not - but they look just as sweet! <b>You will need:</b> - Pink nail polish (and other colors, if desired) - White nail striper

Step 1

Paint your nails with the pink base color. Allow to dry.

Step 2

Using the white stiper, paint a thin, neat line down the center of the nail.

Step 3

Paint a second line, keeping it to the left of the center line, all the way to the tip. Make sure the lines are evenly spaced.

Step 4

Paint the third line to the right of the center line.

Step 5

Continue to work your way outward, alternating between left and right, until you reach the edge of the nail. This will ensure you get an evenly striped pattern.
