In order to make a dramatic red nail with a vintage picture you should start by rounding your nails into your favourite shape; this could be round, oval, and square in order to get a clean base to apply the nail polish. Use a quality base coat to paint up the nail surface so as to avoid staining. Select a real red or intense crimson colour, these shades will be always classy regardless of the season and the garments you wear. Apply polish in thin controlled layers adding more color intensity to the polish layer each time and allow each layer to dry completely. Use a fine brush to brush up the edges but leave a high-gloss top coat used to seal the nail edge to make sure the top is shiny and long lasting to have the nails look polished and confident and long lasting.
