How to paint nails :D For those who need help Options

[Annie5332]

First, clean your nails with nail polish remover. Be sure to get all the old nail polish off. Done? Good. Go wash your hands with soap and water. Dry your hands completley.

Step uno-I usually put a clear coat on the bottom first. It isnt necessary but it might help. A good way to do it is one stroke on the right side, one stroke in the middle and one stroke on the left side. You dont have to do it this way, but you could. If you decide to put on a clear coat first, let it dry for about 45 mins-an hour.

Step dos-Put on a first coat of the color of your choice. Be sure to not miss any spots. If you have trouble doing your other hand like me(since im a righty and cant paint my nails on my right hand) take your time and make sure to take off any of the nail polish on your skin.

Step tres-Isnt counting in spanish fun? Now, after 45 mins-an hour, you can put on your second coat, (if necessary or wanted) and do the same as step dos. You should do fine :D

Step quatro-You could put on a third coat if wanted. If not wanted and you only want 2 coats, you can put on a clear coat so there is no chipping.

Got it? Good

Tips:
If wanted, fill a big bowl with warm water and soak your hands in it for about 10 minutes. This makes your hands soft and smooth :D

If your using fake nails, dont use the kind you glue on if you have short nails. It ruins your nails A LOT (trust me, bad experience)

Dont bite your nails. First of all its bad, second, it ruins and makes your nails bad.

Dont try to take your nail polish off unless your using nail polish remover. Trying to scrape it off with your other nail is a BAD thing to do. Dont do it.
