1. Preparation
Clean and thoroughly dry the natural nails. Remove any old polish, oils, or residue. Apply a suitable base coat to protect the nail surface and improve polish adhesion.
2. Colour
Apply one or two thin coats of ORLY Nail Lacquer. Allow each layer to dry to achieve even coverage and rich, intense colour.
3. Top coat
Finish the manicure with a top coat that not only enhances shine but also locks in colour for longer wear and helps protect against fading and colour changes caused by UV exposure. Allow nails to dry completely before daily activities.
