Steps to follow:
1
The first step in taping your nails is to apply a coat of glitter or hardener over your nails. This will help protect the nails and keep the design intact for longer.

2
Now choose the nail polish color that you like the most and apply it as a base for the nail decoration with adhesive tape. We, as seen in the image, have opted for a pink tone that combines great with the lilous color that we will use later.

3
Once the nail polish has dried, it is time to use the masking tape, which should be opaque to prevent the paint from chipping. Cut some strips of tape that are thin and stick them on the nail on the base in the shape you like the most.

4
Now, choose another color of polish and paint the entire nail over the adhesive tape, so we will achieve a very original and easy to do two-color design. It is also possible to make designs in three colors, painting each side in a different tone, as we see in the second image. With a little imagination, you can create very pretty color combinations. Very important! Remove the masking tape before the nail polish dries.

Lastly, when it's dry, apply a light coat of nail glitter to set the design and voila! You will already have your nails decorated and well groomed. With the strips of the adhesive tape it is very easy to wear the nails of different colors, do not hesitate to try it and see how they look.
