Let’s revisit that old favourite – striping tape – for today’s nail art. Day 16 of the challenge calls for geometric nails so I knew I wanted to do something in an art deco style. You wouldn’t normally expect to see an art deco design in bright blue and green hues but I like that it’s different. Black and gold will never get old, but sometimes it’s good to mix things up a bit. I kept the design nice simple instead of attempting to add more lines at the risk of going overboard and/or ruining the overall look.

I used Rimmel Keep Calm & Play as my base colour with a thin coat of Glisten & Glow HK Girl to make it dry quickly.

Next, I placed striping tape with a pair of tweezers where I wanted the green to show through.

I painted over the tape using Barry M Malibu, then immediately removed the tape using the tweezers.

It’s finished off with two coats of Glisten & Glow HK Girl to smooth everything over.
