To mask the interface, you can use manicure tape. Glue a thin strip so that it is slightly smaller in size than the width of the nail. This is necessary so that in the process of wearing, you do not accidentally hooked tape. To consolidate the result, use the finish. And also you can play with this design. For example, make one color matte and the second glossy.
Triangular gaps

Three stencils are placed in a row near the cuticle. Now paint the nails with white varnish. Dry the result, and apply the color again.
