Step 1: Remove Polish and Oils.

Start by clearing away any nail polish and oils. Place your tools on a flat, protected surface to avoid spills and smudges. We suggest using KolorsbyK Acetone FREE nail polish remover for a gentle clean. Remember to wash your hands afterward.

Step 2: Clip and File.

Trim your nails if needed, then shape them to your desired style, whether square, round, or in-between. Smooth out the surface with a nail buffer for a polished look.

Step 3: Push back your cuticles.

Softening your cuticles with oil or lotion, gently push them back with a cuticle stick. It's essential to preserve your cuticles as they protect your nails from bacteria and maintain their softness.

Step 4: Exfoliate your hands.

Revitalize your hands, wrists, and forearms with a hand scrub to remove dead skin cells and replenish moisture. Use a nailbrush to clean under your nails thoroughly. Rinse and dry your hands afterward.

Step 5: Moisturize your hands.

Apply moisturizer to your hands to prevent smudging while your nail polish dries. Take a moment to indulge in a mini hand massage for relaxation. Swipe each nail with nail polish remover to remove any excess oils.

Step 6: Apply Kolors by K base coat.

Hydrate and shield your nails with a base coat to prevent chipping. Allow at least two minutes between each coat, starting with the base coat.

Step 7: Apply the first coat of Kolors by K nail polish.

Choose your favorite shade and apply the first coat evenly, ensuring full coverage. Aim for maximum coverage to make the second coat effortless. Embrace the drip-drip!

Step 8: Apply the second coat of KolorsbyK nail polish.

After two minutes, apply the second coat for a vibrant finish. For glitter or sheer shades, a third coat may be necessary for optimal coverage.

Step 9: Apply Kolors by K topcoat.

Seal in your manicure with a topcoat for added protection against chipping and a glossy shine.

Step 10: Clean up edges and let your nails dry.

Use a q-tip dipped in nail polish remover to tidy up any mistakes around the cuticles. Allow your nails to dry for an additional five to ten minutes, and voilà—perfect nails at home! OKUUUUUR!
