- Apply a base coat and allow to dry completely. Whenever you use a vinyl, all the layers under it must be set.
- Apply the chevron vinyl, I'm using the Simple Chevron Wave from Up Your Nail. Take your time and make sure it's aligned. I usually apply all the chevrons at the same time so that I can visually see they all look the same before I apply polish.
- Paint each section of your nail the desired colour. I find this design looks balanced with a darker shade on the moon and a lighter shade on the tip. Paint carefully. I'm using the trio of shades I received from my September Black Sheep Lacquer Box.
- Remove the vinyl. I paint one nail at a time and remove the vinyl before I move on. If you leave it the polish will dry and the vinyl will melt.
- Apply the glitter topper you've chosen. I typically wait until the two polishes are a bit set so as to not smear them into the negative space. You can also opt to omit the glitter for a simpler look.
- Tidy up, if required!
