When the letters begin to curl and move around, pick them up using a pair of tweezers. Place them on your nails in the desired pattern. Repeat until all nails are complete.
: Step 7
Use a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol to gently smooth out any wrinkles or bubbles under the letters. Be careful not to smudge the letters.
