- Use less pressure on the brush to prevent streak marks on lighter formulas.
- Apply your first coat with a slight "floating" motion to avoid flooding the cuticle area.
- If streaks appear, a third thin layer often self-levels better than a single thick coat.
- Double-check your LED/UV lamp bulbs; older bulbs may under-cure light shades.
