Caramel Apple Nails Tutorial

Hey Guys,
I'm back with another tutorial! This time the theme is based on Apples ;D enjoy~ Oh and I will post the names of nail polish at the very end of the tutorial.
This is what we will be working on.
These are the supplies you need. The stick is an Apple Fimo Cane. You also needed Wax paper in case you can't tell.
You will also need tape
    
 Start off with base coat. btw: this picture is recycled from one of my old tutorials LOL I forgot to take a picture of nails before I went on the next step. That's why the nails look longer later XD
Put on a coat of Light Green Polish
Take out your tape and wax paper. The wax paper is so that you can put the tape on while you cut it. It will be explained below.
If you look harder, you can see that I have put 5 pieces of tape onto the wax paper already.  Also get out a hobby knife/box cutter/ a sharp scissor etc.
Now for the Caramel Apple drips you need to draw the drippy stuff on the TOP of the tape. Like so
Do this 5x, one for each nail. Or in your case, 10x. (since I already finished my right hand.)
Now cut by tracing along the pen lines.
After you cut it, it should look like this. Rip it off the wax paper very carefully.
Now Gently place it on your nails and tap it down to make sure it stays. Before you do this, make sure your nail polish is DRY. or it will come off with the tape.
Now paint on the beige/tan color over the tape. You do not have to worry about getting the tape dirty because you will be ripping it off later.
DO NOT leave on the tape to dry with the polish. It will mess up your nails. After you put on the biege coat, rip off the tape like 4 seconds later. Gently
 Okay now its time for the decorations! you can get Fimo canes on Amazon, Ebay, or a nail supply store.
Cut them into thinly like so.
When your nail polish dries, put some nail glue onto the apple slice and place on your nail. Using a tweezer helps a lot when positioning it.
Apply a top coat and you're done!

Nail Polish Used: Essie-Da bush
