1. A toothpick can work great, just keep a nail file nearby so that you can sharpen it if you need to. Another thing that works really well is find a thin brush, and take some scissors to it, cutting around the edges until it's thin enough. You can shorten the length of the bristles for more control or leave them longer and get a wispier look. Another option, that actually came in the question you asked, is paint pens. You can usually buy bottles of polish with a fine brush, and a cap, and it lets a super fine line of polish out when you squeeze the bottle. You also might want to find a friend that's good at that kind of thing, because doing your right hand will be really tricky. Hope you find something that works for you.
