Does anyone know how to paint your nails using lace? or making a lace design? I tried it but it went right through the lace. I don't know if I did something wrong or what. What's the best thing to use for the lace/ fishnet look? Any tips? Thanks xoxo <3
Katie, I think you can actually add lace on top of the polish then top coat. But then again this may not be the actual look you're going for. Have you checked out you tube?
You can also paint using acrylic paint thinned with water. Get some false nails that are real cheap to practice on. It will help you get your hand.start with the big ones first, they are easier. Use a very thin brush and play around with flowers, swirl, hearts, or menhdi designs! ;)

Try Maybe Thinner Coats When Applying It For The Lace. If It Works, Just Add Another Coat Just So It Can Pop More(;
