Using a dotting tool, mark out where you'd like the yellow chevron to start, in a triangular shape at the tip of the nail. Make sure you leave enough room to do a blue chevron inside it too.

Step 3

Fill in the dotted area with a bright yellow, using the dots as your guide. Keep this yellow layer quite thin so it won't be gloopy/will be easier and quicker to dry.

Step 4
