How to Use Nail Stamping Kits
Nail stamping kits are a convenient way to create intricate and detailed designs on your nails with ease. They include a stamping plate with various designs, a stamper, and a scraper. Start with a base coat and your desired background color. Apply nail polish to the desired design on the stamping plate, scrape off the excess polish, and press the stamper onto the design to pick it up. Then, roll the stamper over your nail to transfer the design. Finish with a top coat to seal the design. This technique is perfect for achieving professional-looking nail art at home, especially when combined with the precision of Russian manicures.
