Apply the base color

Create floral designs

Pro Tips
Always allow each layer of polish to dry completely before applying the next.
If you find floral designs challenging, start with simple shapes and gradually add details.
Use tape to create clean lines for the central designs if you're unsure about freehand painting.
Practice your brush strokes on a practice nail or paper before applying to your real nails.
