Step One

Fill the pot with water
Chose and paint your base colour nail varnish

Step Two

When nails are dry blob a few drops of the base colour nail varnish into the pot filled with water
Then blob a few drops of the other colours
(got to move fast so the nail varnish does not set)

Step Four

Dip your finger, one at a time, directly into the varnish and pull out
making sure your careful as to how the finger nail takes to the pattern

Step Five

The swirl pattern created should last about two nails before you need to change
To do this take the cocktail stick and swirl it into the polish
The polish should all be removed and ready to repeat Steps 1-4

Step Six

Once all nails have been decorated and have dried you can now clean up the mess created
Taking cottons pads and ear buds clean up around the edge of the nail

DO NOT BE FOOLED IT CAN GET
