Pro Tips
Always use a base coat to protect your nails from staining and chipping.
Experiment with the sponge technique for the gradient until you achieve your desired depth.
Consider using nail vinyls or stencils for more complex designs if you’re a beginner.
Finish with a top coat to enhance the longevity and shine of your nail art.
Practice patience; allow each layer to dry before moving to the next step.
