Ensure nail tips are smooth and even and the nails are clean, dry and freefrom any oily residue. Apply a base coat to the nail and allow to dry.

The Leighton Denny base coat, UNDERCOVER, dries matt to help grip nailcolour and tell you that it is time to apply the nail colour. Roll the colourbottle between the hands to mix it up; never shake it as this can cause airbubbles.

Apply two thin coats over the base coat rather than one thick coat. Thishelps reduce chipping and extend wear time. Wipe one side of the brush on theneck of the bottle so it holds just enough to cover one nail. Present the brushto the nail about 2 mm away from the cuticle then push the brush towards thecuticle before making the usual sweep back towards the tip.

Ideally, finish with CRYSTAL FINISH topcoat to help seal the colour andagain extend wear time. Tidy any mistakes with the PRECISION CORRECTOR LIQUID.Dip the brush into the bottle then use the brush like an eraser to remove andtidy. For the fastest finish, drip a little MIRACLE DROPS over the polish tospeed up drying time.
