    BEAUTY KIT
     
    To get picture-perfect results, you'll want a metallic shade, like Maybelline New York Color Show Nail Lacquer in Bold Gold ($4 at drugstores), and a pastel shade, like Essie polish in Mint Candy Apple ($8 at essie.com).

    THE RIGHT TOOLS
     
    Got your polish? Fab! Now you'll need painter's tape (get it at the hardware store) and a small pair of scissors.
  • slide3.jpg
    STEP 1
     
    Apply metallic polish to all 10 digits and wait five minutes (or until dry).
  • slide4.jpg
    STEP 2
     
    Cut tape into narrow triangles and apply them in a zigzag pattern.
  • slide5.jpg
    STEP 3
     
    Paint over the entire nail and triangles with the pastel shade.
  • slide6.jpg
    STEP 4
     
    Peel off the tape after waiting just 10 seconds so polish is still wet.
  • slide7.jpg
    STEP 5
     
    Do just one nail for an unexpected accent or all 10 for a major mani.
  • slide8.jpg
    STEP 6
     
    Swipe each dry nail with a layer of topcoat to seal in your masterpiece.
  • final.jpg
    Don't let the sweets fool ya--our model's mani is totally fierce.

Ok, so I am pretty sure my BGF likes me. The thing is, he's truly an amazing friend but I just don't like him like that. I know he's planning on telling me soon but what should I say? I really don't want to hurt his feelings. My parents won't let me date anyone anyway! ( even though I'm 14 ). Help?

Hey girl,

If he hasn't told you yet, there's no need to do anything now. If he does tell you that he likes you, just say that you enjoy spending time with him as a friend, but that you don't have any romantic feelings for him. It's better to tell him the truth now than to string him along later!
