Two-Tone Diagonals

Here is a color blocking inspired nail look using two different tones of blue along a edgy diagonal. 

What you need:

Essie go overboard  w   Essie turquoise & caicos  w  Essie good to go  w  Scotch Tape

On my left hand I painted my thumb with 2 coats of turquoise & caicos and the rest with go overboard.

Then on my right hand I painted my thumb with go overboard and the rest 2 coats of turquoise & caicos.

Once the nails are dry it is time to add the scotch tape. Take the tape and place it on the back of your hand first to take off some stickiness. Then smooth it along the nail at a diagonal. 

Then taking the opposite color add a coat of polish.

Peel the tape immediately & you should see a nice diagonal line. 

If you feel like it needs a second coat; wait a few minutes for it to dry & repeat the taping process.  

Then add a good helping of top coat & voilà you have a fun and edgy two-toned look.
