DIY Black and White Nails
Black and white nails are an easy way to help you express your personality simply and creatively. But, while it’s not difficult, some preparation is involved before the nail polish application can be made.
- Prepare your hands by trimming any excess cuticles or hangnails that may make it difficult for you to paint your nails without getting on other parts of your hand or fingers.
- Apply a base coat followed by two coats of the color of choice (black). Be sure to let each coat dry completely before applying another layer.
- Once all layers have been applied, wait a few minutes, then apply one final top coat of polish.
- Finally, seal everything in by applying two coats of clear topcoats.
