Pro Tips
Make sure each layer of polish is completely dry before applying another to avoid smudging.
Use a light hand when applying designs for better precision.
If freehand drawing is difficult, consider using nail stickers or stamping plates for the silhouettes.
Apply the top coat carefully to avoid dragging the design.
