Pro Tips
Ensure each layer of polish is completely dry before proceeding to the next step to prevent smudging.
For clean lines and separation, consider using nail vinyls or tape during the gradient and black design stages.
Practice the design on a piece of paper before attempting on your nails to perfect your strokes.
Be gentle with cleanup to avoid ruining the design, especially around the cuticles.
