Steps

Gently shape the free edge; leave the cuticles intact.
Start with clean, dry nails. Apply base coat according to its label.
Apply thin coats of your chosen regular polish and let each layer dry.
Keep the brush strokes parallel from base to tip. Compare one dry coat with two before deciding how much coverage suits the reference; do not add decoration to a plain-color look.
Add top coat following its label and allow enough drying time.

Tips

Cashmere mauve. Use this original concept as a visual reference. The home version uses regular polish and does not reproduce extensions, raised decorations or specialist salon effects.

Before you begin

Use only regular air-dry polish for this guide. Follow the product labels, ventilate the room and stop if irritation occurs. Do not use damaged or painful nails.
