Pro Tips
Ensure each layer of polish is completely dry before applying the next to avoid smudging.
Use a light touch when applying embellishments to avoid overloading the design.
If you're new to nail art, practice floral designs on a piece of paper before working on your nails.
Consider using a quick-dry top coat for faster results.
