Striping Tape = Geometric Triangles


While looking on reddit, I saw this awesome manicure and just had to try it out myself! I used striping tape on my nails to create various triangles on my nail. After putting the striping tape down (and making sure it sticks down completely), I applied different polishes using a small brush. When I finished, I took off the striping tape carefully (and I made sure to remove them in the right order so I didn't rip off other tape underneath). 

For my nails, I used two coats of Julep - Cassie. For my ring finger, I used one coat of Zoya - Laurie. When completely dried, I taped over it with striping tape (Use THIS as a guideline). I painted in each triangle with these polishes:
I tried to take these photos in my lightbox, but my nails were not true to colour. Julep's Cassie would not photograph nicely at all :( So I had to go against a wall and use flash. *sigh*
