I just remodeled my bathroom by the master bedroom and the toilet needed to be shimmed since the tile around the flange was a bit higher than where the toilet bowl ends. After shimming there is a slight gap exposing beneath the toilet. I attempted caulking it on a whim but it did not look good.
How do you caulk around the base of the toilet and make it look good? a.k.a. how to make the caulk even and smooth. I tried a spoon as well, that did not work.

When I re-caulked my tub I used painters tape on both the tub and the wall with a gap in-between. I then caulked the space between the two pieces of tape, smoothed out with a plastic spoon and then pulled the tape away. The lines were straight and even.
I imagine you can do the same with your toilet, put tape on the floor then slightly above the bottom edge of your toilet, fill the gap and then remove the tape.
