Start out by prepping and filing your nails into shape with a nail file and cuticle pusher. Then apply a base coat for the perfect base. Now is the perfect chance to paint your nails a nude shade or keep it plain- it’s completely up to you.

Using a fine line detailer brush and Essie red nail polish, start by drawing three lines vertically down the nail, in varying lengths.

Then connect the lines with little arches, in the same Essie red polish.

Create three dots on the edge of each line, using the same Essie red polish.

Connect the dots to the lines using small, precise strokes with your brush. Now is the perfect time to fix any sharp edges too, by rounding out your arches and lines.

Once your polish is dry (or cured if you’re using gel), apply a top coat to lock your design in and prevent chipping. Then, once your top coat is completely dry (or cured), apply cuticle oil to the cuticles to keep your nails healthy and strong.
