What you will need:
A unused make up brush with a curved edge or nail brush
Either scrub fresh/nail fresh/nail varnish remover
Base coat
Top coat
White polish


1) prep the nail for polish as you would including base coat

2) paint on the white polish(as you would a normal polish) about a quarter of the way up the nail.

3) Take your brush and soak it in your scrub fresh or your alternative, and clean the white polish off the nail(only the polish you don't want, leave the white polish for the tip of course!!) I work mine in a circular motion and then touch it up at the side by doing this your basically 'rubbing out' your excess white polish to be left with a neat white tip.

MAKE SURE YOUR BRUSH IS ALWAYS QUITE WET, IF IT'S GETTING DRY IT DOESN'T WORK PROPERLY!

some people prefer to do one hand and then do this or do it after each nail..i do it after each nail.

4) apply base coat..

5) apply any other colour, nail art you may want

6) top coat

7) DRY

8) YOUR DONE!
