Take your white polish and fill in the blanks, then use your black polish to go over the original lines and clean them up. We do the back-and-forth method with the colors because it allows for you to make more mistakes — if you painted your nail white first and then painted on the black, it would make any shakiness or errors look more apparent. This way you can go back and clean things up, without making the design get too goopy or smudged. Repeat this design on your pinkie finger.
