regulars

we've come up with a step by step guide...
enjoy!

1.

grip the brush firmly betwixt thumb und forefinger, it's no good namby pambying around with the tools of the beauty trade, you must command them as a conductor orchestrates with a firm baton

2.

hold other hand outright over an attractive background, newspapier is both entertaining und practical

3.

apply varnish, breathing deeply of the fumes, in broad, bold strokes, never pandering to more conservative restraints vis-a-vis getting it all on the actual nail, you will know instinctively when your own acceptable boundaries have been reached

4.

allow to dry
beau-ti-ful, whatever endeavours you choose to participate in!
