My Own Way Darling

The dark cherry-red richness of this intoxicating shade will empower you to make your life a masterpiece. The perfect dose of mystery and sophistication, this moody hue is equal parts art and elegance.

Directions for use

STEP 1 : For a perfect manicure swipe your nails with polish remover before painting them, this is because your nails have natural oils which can prevent nail lacquer from adhering to your nails.

STEP 2: Follow suit and file your nails to your desired shape beginning at the outside edge and pulling towards the centre and buff to brighten them.

STEP 3: Lets paint!!

Shake your lacquer well and load just enough polish onto the brush to cover your nails in one coat. Apply one stroke of lacquer down the centre of the nail followed by another two strokes along each side of the nail pulling the lacquer over the tips of your nails and let it dry, repeat until you get your desired opacity.

STEP 4: Finish off with a thin coat of Basic Inks Breathable Top Coat.

Basic tip: The longer you wait between applying each coat the longer your colour will be locked in.
