Pro Tips
Prepare your nails well to ensure a smooth application and longer-lasting design.
Use thin coats of polish to avoid clumping and uneven texture.
If you make a mistake with the zigzag pattern, use a cleanup brush and nail polish remover to correct it.
Experiment with different placements for the embellishments for a more personal touch.
Always allow each layer of polish to dry fully before moving on to the next step for best results.
