"1. On clean nails, apply one coat of the Plum Color Affair 3-in-1 Strengthener, Base & Top Coat. Allow it to air dry. 2. Follow with two coats of Plum Color Affair Nail Polish Summer Sorbet Collection in the shade of your choice. Allow sufficient time for each coat to air-dry. 3. Finish with a coat of Plum Color Affair 3-in-1 Strengthener, Base & Top Coat. 4. Sit back, relax and let your nails air-dry completely! Pro-tip 1: To mix the nail polish before application, rub the bottle between your palms. Avoid shaking the bottle. Pro-tip 2: Avoid blowing on your nails, the warmth & moisture in your breath actually slow the drying process down. Instead, let them air-dry naturally."
