Pro Tips
Make sure to use thin layers of polish to avoid bulkiness and ensure quicker drying.
Practice floral designs on a nail wheel if you're unsure about your painting skills.
Clean your tools with nail polish remover immediately after use to maintain their quality.
If you make a mistake, use a cleanup brush dipped in remover to correct it before the polish dries.
Consider using a quick-dry top coat for faster drying times.
