Pro Tips
Always allow each layer of polish to dry fully before applying the next to avoid smudging.
If you're new to patterns, practice on a nail wheel before applying to your nails.
Keep your hands steady while using striping tape for clean lines.
Using a sponge can help create a gradient effect with colors if desired.
Don't forget to hydrate your cuticles after the design is complete for nail health.
