Pro Tips
Always allow each layer of polish to dry thoroughly to prevent smudging.
For easier flower designs, use a premade nail art sticker if you're not comfortable painting them.
Practice the marbling technique on a piece of paper before attempting it on your nails.
Consider using a quick-dry top coat if you're in a hurry to save time.
Keep a cleanup brush nearby to fix any mistakes as you go for a neater finish.
