1. Start off with clean nails making sure the nail surface is oil and nail polish free.

2. Apply the base coat (this protects the nails and makes sure they are not stained) and allow to dry off.

3. Place a drop of nail polish at the centre of your nail, a bit away from the cuticle-leave just a tiny gap.

4. Push back the drop towards the cuticle leaving a tiny gap.

5. Move the brush upwards making a straight line till you get to the tip of the nail.

6. Go back to the base of the nail and swipe polish along the nail curve.

8. Go in again repeating step 6 to fill the other side of the nail.
