I have very tiny hands, & my nails are very slim. So no matter what I do, I get nail polish all over my fingers. Is there a way to avoid this while still getting full coverage on my nails??

Put a little Vaseline around your nail and use polish with a smaller more precise brush like Essie. Then after your polish dries you can wipe off the Vaseline. If you don't want to do that then try a polish corrector pen.

Yeah, I always do the q tip it's just annoying to never be able to do your nails quick & be done! The tape is a good idea!

I use Vaseline or any real heavy cream lotion. It's leaves a perfect mani or pedi every time and leaves the skin feeling smooth and awesome.😀
