These peppermint-inspired tips are total eye candy.
Step 1: Apply two coats of white polish, such as Illamasqua Nail Varnish in Scorch, followed by one coat of pearlescent polish, like Illamasqua Nail Varnish in Prism, to give it a glossy, candy-like sheen.
Step 2: Once nails are dry, dip a slanted eyeliner brush into a true red polish, like Illamasqua Nail Varnish in Ruthless, and paint two thick diagonal stripes on each nail.
Step 3: Draw two thinner red stripes between the two larger ones.
Step 4: To avoid smearing, allow nails to dry for five minutes before applying a topcoat.
