FAQs
Can I use regular nail polish instead of gel?
Yes, but the longevity and finish may not be as durable or glossy. You'll need to allow each layer to dry completely before proceeding.
What brush size is best for the marble effect?
A very fine detail brush (00 or 000) is recommended for creating delicate marble veins.
How do I prevent the red from bleeding into the white?
Apply the white polish sparingly and cure each layer promptly.
Can I use a marble nail art sticker instead?
Yes, if you're looking for a quicker alternative. Just make sure to apply a top coat for a seamless finish.
What is the best way to clean my nail art brushes?
Use a brush cleaner specifically designed for nail art brushes to remove any residue and maintain the bristles' shape.
