Decorate Your Toenails
This simple explanation will help you paint the best toenails. Just follow the instructions.
Steps
- Grow your toenails.
- Clean them well and file them.
- Paint one clear coat of nail varnish first.
- Once the first coat is completely dry, paint a second coat of any color nail varnish over the first coat.
- Decorate when half dry. While the varnish is half dry, carefully place some nail decorations on, nail stickers work better then anything else.
- Finish with a final coat of clear nail varnish.
Tips
- If you don't want to use paint/stickers/rhinestones crackle nail polish is wonderful.
- You can use a cool hairdryer.
- Make sure your colors go together and think about it before you put it on!
- You may want to use a toothpick to hold the sticker in place as you put the top coat of nail varnish on.
- You can make your nails dry faster by dipping them into a bowl of ice cold water. (not under a running tap)
- Sandals also are great to wear if you need to run an errand before your toenails are completely dry!
- It really helps to make sure you let each coat dry for at least 4 minutes so that the color doesn't bubble or never dry. Don't add more than 4 coats on the entire nail too. It will never dry.
