I know a few nail art gurus have used this method, but I always have people asking "how can I paint that on the other hand?" especially on super complex designs.

I like to paint with my left hand and nothing is impossible with a bit of practice, but sometimes I find it quicker and easier to paint on the plastic bag with my right hand. Because like everyone, I get shaky hand days, and lazy days :D

TIPS:
Use the design on your other hand as a reference so you paint each design small enough to fit your nail.
Place the design over the nail WITHOUT topcoat first to see where abouts you want to position it.
Use a fast-drying topcoat to make sure the design peels off without breaking.
If you want to paint a famous logo design on your nails, you can use the plastic bag method to trace it from a magazine. Cheating? Yeah. Awesome nails? FUCKYEAH!!

Hope you enjoy
xx love you guys xx
