With adhesive tape

This technique appeared to make life much easier for girls who wanted to do their own nail art. 

With an adhesive tape you can make geometric shapes in all ways, in addition, they are great to help make francesinhas and inglesinhas.

Nail art specialists recommend the use of a boleador, that metal aplite that has a little ball at the end, you know?

So, they suggest that it be used on nails decorated with ribbons in case the nail polish smudges or stains when the stickers are removed from their place. You will “hit” the shape you want on your nails with the baller.

This trend is the way to paint the nails geometrically leaving part of the nails without nail polish:

like sponge

This is one of the easiest decorated nail techniques to do at home. To do it, you don't need to buy specific manicure materials, you can even use dishwashing sponges!

With this item you can apply the ombre (a gradient of the same tone) and the gradient conventional (ladder of some tones) on the nails.

You can find their own sponges in specialized stores, but as we said, it is optional because you can use homemade ones.

In addition to enamels, the sponge technique works a lot with sparkles and glitters. You insert them right after applying nail polish.

You can create multiple color sequences. Just use your imagination!

The cool thing is that the nails can be of any length, both long and short. They look beautiful either way!
