Ensure nail tips are smooth and even and the nails are clean, dryand free from any oily residue. Apply a base coat to the nail and allowto dry.

The Leighton Denny base coat, UNDERCOVER, dries matt to help gripnail colour and tell you that it is time to apply the nail colour. Rollthe colour bottle between the hands to mix it up; never shake it asthis can cause air bubbles.

Apply two thin coats over the base coat rather than one thick coat.This helps reduce chipping and extend wear time. Wipe one side of thebrush on the neck of the bottle so it holds just enough to cover onenail. Present the brush to the nail about 2 mm away from the cuticlethen push the brush towards the cuticle before making the usual sweepback towards the tip.

Ideally, finish with CRYSTAL FINISH topcoat to help seal the colourand again extend wear time. Tidy any mistakes with the PRECISIONCORRECTOR LIQUID. Dip the brush into the bottle then use the brush likean eraser to remove and tidy.

For the fastest finish, drip a little MIRACLE DROPS over the polish to speed up drying time.
