Before you start, make sure you have everything you need and that it's easy to reach from wherever you're sitting. It's also a good idea to make a quick trip to the bathroom. There's nothing worse than creating an awesome mani and then ruining it because you didn't prepare ahead!
The Stuff...
Two colour polishes and a top coat
You can choose colours that compliment or go bold and pick two that clash. Experiment with different combinations and see what works.
A sponge, a plastic sheet and toothpicks
I bought a big bathroom sponge and I just cut sections off when I need them. The sections don't have to be perfectly cut, as long as one side is flat it will work. You can use absolutely any sponge - a make-up sponge, washing up sponge or any other kind of sponge you can find.
If you don't have any of these plastic wallets in the house, raid the kitchen cupboards for some foil or baking paper.
