Pro Tips
Practice the snowflake and snowman designs on a practice wheel before applying to your nails.

Use a quick-dry top coat if you're short on time to prevent smudging.
Ensure the base color is completely dry before detailing to maintain crisp lines.
Store your nail art tools properly to prolong their lifespan.
