Okay I posted this twice but no-one answered so I figure it must be a glitch.
these are my back to school nails but I need 3 questions answered...
--how to make the lines straighter, I tried tape but it peels the polish off with it :/
--how to remove air bubbles in the polish after I applied it
--any opinions? (YES I know still have to clean up around the edges aha :) )
thanks girls :) xx

Use striping tape for clean lines. I got 10 rolls of it on eBay for like $3.

Also, it has to be 110% dry to apply any tape.

Also peel off the tape before the polish dries or it will peel off with the tape!

Stick the tape to your finger and peel it off of there first so its not as sticky on your nail to ruin it.

Are bubbles tend to be a polish or application problem. You're talking about bubbles in your colors then be sure to twirl your brush around in the polish bottle before applying. That usually gets the bubbles out. If you got bubbles in your top coat, its probably because of that gem. Be sure to place a blob of top coat over the gem first and then paint around it to cover the rest of the nail. It may take a little longer to dry, but there won't be any bubbles and the gem will stay on longer as well.
