Pro Tips
Ensure your base coat is completely dry before applying colored polish.
Work on one nail at a time to prevent polish from drying out before you finish.
Practice heart shapes on a piece of paper to gain confidence with the dotting tool.
For the marbled effect, try different colors that complement each other for varied designs.
Don’t forget to seal your design with a top coat to enhance longevity and shine.
