FAQs
Can I use nail stickers instead of painting the seagulls?
Yes, nail stickers are a great alternative if you're not comfortable hand-painting. Just make sure to apply them smoothly and seal them with a top coat.
What type of orange polish is best for the base?
A creamy or slightly shimmery orange polish will give the best sunset effect. Avoid matte polishes for the base.
How do I prevent the yellow sun from bleeding into the orange?
Let the orange gradient dry completely before applying the yellow sun. Use a light touch and a small brush to avoid over-application.
Can I use gel polish for this design?
Yes, you can use gel polish for longer-lasting results. Just remember to cure each layer under a UV/LED lamp.
What if I don't have a sponge for the gradient?
You can use a makeup sponge or even a small piece of clean, soft cloth to create the gradient effect.
Is this design suitable for short nails?
Yes, but you might need to simplify the seagull silhouettes to fit the smaller surface area.
