Purple-Striped Nails
Classic Purple and Black Striped Nails
Paint your nails with magic purple and black stripes, and you've got yourself a look that's fit for a queen. Did you know that purple was once very pricey and difficult to obtain? Only the wealthiest people could afford to wear it. Even today, it still feels luxe.
But purple also has a mysterious vibe, which is why it looks so good alongside black. And if you want to know the secret of how to get perfectly straight lines like these on your nails, it's easy! Nail tape is one option. Another is to freehand the stripes with line art gel. LDS art liner comes with a precision brush in the bottle, ready to make your visions come to life.

Purple and Silver Chrome Nails
What happens when purple, the color of luxury and power, mingles with the futuristic gleam of silver? Then, you get a bold look like this that shines with confidence.
You're missing out if you've never tried chrome powder on your nails. It's straightforward to apply when you use gel polish. The Lavis gel chrome base provides a sleek foundation for a mirror finish. Cure it, then dip the applicator in the chrome powder and smooth it into place across the nail. The powder has a silky texture, so it's like applying eye shadow. Once you're satisfied with how things look, apply the top coat and cure.
