2. On the cleaned and prepared for manicure nails we apply a basic covering.
3. Next, we apply a colored varnish in two layers and wait a few minutes until it slightly dries.
4. We apply a layer of colorless varnish and proceed to applying the flock itself. There are two ways of applying it: dipping your finger in a jar of material or manually sprinkling it on the nail. It will be more convenient to do this gently with finger clapping movements.
5. Using a brush, squeeze the flock layer against the nail plate as tightly as possible.
6. Do the same with all the nails.
7. Wait a few minutes until the layer dries.
