Pro Tips
Always use a base coat to protect your nails from staining and to help polish adhere better.
For cleaner lines in your nail art, work slowly and patiently, using minimal product on your brush.
Consider using a quick-dry top coat if you're in a hurry to prevent smudging.
Experiment with different geometric designs and patterns to personalize your nail art.
