1. Apply a layer of base coat.
2. Apply 1 layer of Beg, Borrow, and Steel to the nails.
3. Apply cuticle protector around the nails.
4. Work with one nail at a time.
5. Dab a little of the other four nail polishes onto the bottom of the two stampers in the pink Clear Jelly Stamper, which is a soft marshmallow stamper. Put about three drops of each color on the stamper, in different places, so the colors are well distributed.
6. Turn the stamper over and gently dab it on the silicone mat so the colors spread out on the stamper.
7. Dab the stamper onto the nail and distribute the colors so it looks the way you want.
8. Apply one or two more layers to the nail, until the colors are as vivid as you want.
9. Remove any nail polish that has collected between the nail and the latex with a cuticle pusher.
10. Remove the latex immediately, before the nail polish dries.
11. Clean the nail with a cleanup brush and acetone.
12. Repeat steps 5-11 on the other nails.
13. Apply top coat to all the nails.
14. Apply cuticle protector around the nails again.
15. Choose a pattern on the cjs-48 plate (here, number 2 from the right on the 4th row is used), and stamp it onto all nails.
16. Let the stamping polish dry.
17. Clean the cuticles with a brush and acetone (if any stamping polish got on them).
18. Apply a thick layer of top coat to prevent the stamping polish from being ruined. If you want to be completely sure your design doesn't smudge or get ruined, you can apply the Clear Jelly Stamper top coat before applying your regular top coat.
19. Apply cuticle oil to the cuticles and hand cream to your hands.
