"After you've allowed the colors to your lighthouse nail art to dry for at least three to five minutes, you're going to pull your top coat out, again I'm using just a UV top coat, and you're just going to cover all ten nails. Remember, if you don' wait on the polish to dry, you will smear the design and you will have to start over. As you come down all the way to the bottom of the nail, just swipe it across the free edge. You just want to give it a little bit of extra protection. After all of your hard work, you're going to want it to last as long as possible. If you see that you've gotten any polish on the finger itself, on the skin or the cuticle, you can always go back with your polish remover and your brush and just clean up the sides a little. Look back over, make sure that you've done all ten. Now you want to allow your nails to dry for at least ten to fifteen minutes. Extra this time just because so much extra polish went into the design itself. That is how you topcoat your lighthouse nail art design."
