Pro Tips
Start with clean and dry nails for the best adhesion.
Allow each layer of polish to dry thoroughly to avoid smudging.
Use a small amount of polish on your brush to prevent drips and uneven application.
Consider using a fast-drying top coat to speed up the process.
Experiment with different colors to personalize the design.
