Hi April!
No, you shouldn't have to wo...@April:<br />Hi April!<br />No, you shouldn't have to work on wet polish, you can add the dots at any time. They will definitely add texture to your surface though. What I do, however, is I always come back after my dots are dried (or mostly dried) and put on a nice thick coat of topcoat. That helps the two layers look more like one and provides a smoother surface.<br /><br />Here's an example of my dots before topcoat:<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_4-tw9tnFC5M/TQbmlBLA2fI/AAAAAAAACak/LkU7IgdpKIo/s1600/IMG_3066.JPG" rel="nofollow">This photo</a><br />And then with topcoat:<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_4-tw9tnFC5M/TQbmkEVGZvI/AAAAAAAACag/skJY8oF40-g/s1600/IMG_3078.JPG" rel="nofollow">This photo</a><br /><br />Also, if your dots are turning out too lumpy, try using a smaller size dotting head and actually touching the tool to the nail's surface when you dot. This should spread out the dot to a slightly larger diameter with less of a 3-dimensional bump.<br /><br />Let me know if this helps! If not I may have to do a photo tutorial or something.<br /><br />Have a great day!ABOP Laquerlovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09941561809869575754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377751810976897585.post-34338257142084361462011-03-04T17:49:48.986-08:002011-03-04T17:49:48.986-08:00Love!!!

I don't! That's why I'm bad at drawing lines! I only have to keep steady for the moment when the tool touches my nail so I find it much easier - even on my non-dominant hand. I can take my time to aim, and then fire! You can do it too! <br /><br />@MK: I do sometimes wish it was Konad, but I'm not so good at that right now, and my nails are too large for the patterns I like the most. I comfort myself by saying at least I have more flexibility with patterns this way :)ABOP Laquerlovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09941561809869575754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8377751810976897585.post-2287603862912906142011-03-04T09:00:26.574-08:002011-03-04T09:00:26.574-08:00Fabulous!!!!
