How to apply nail polish correctly?
We've prepared a pictorial tutorial on how to properly apply your nail polish.
Steps for a good nail polish application
- Start with a clean nail, free of any polish residue or oil.
- Apply a base coat. This will help the polish last longer and protect your nail from the colored pigments of the nail polish.
- Place a drop of polish in the center of the nail, slightly above the cuticles.
- Spread the polish towards the cuticles, being careful to leave a space between the cuticles and the polish.
- Continue in a straight line towards the tip of the nail.
- Return to the base of the nail and continue the movement on the side.
- Be sure to completely fill in the side and go up to the tip.
- Repeat step 6 on the other side.
- Generally, it is recommended to apply a second coat of polish, then a top coat.
