TIPS:

1. The coloring of each layer should not be too thick, otherwise it will cause shrinkage. If you want to make the color effect of nail polish more intense, you need to apply three or more thin coats instead of two thick coats.

2. When choosing nail polish or nail polish, pay attention to choosing products with full color. Poor quality nail polish can easily discolor or fade, and can also cause uneven brushing results. In addition, it is necessary to choose a brush with a relatively neat brush head, so that it is easy to brush to the end. If the brush is too hard, lines will appear.

3. Pay attention to the gestures when painting the nails. If the gestures are not correct, it will easily cause the hands to shake and then brush unevenly. Generally, the left hand should support the opponent’s hand, and then the right hand should use the little tail or ring finger to touch a certain finger of the left hand, so that the right hand has a support, so as to prevent the hand from shaking.
