Disclaimer

Painted Look shares design ideas for nails, henna and face paint, so please treat everything as ideas, not medical advice, and test a small patch of skin first. Read what we tested and what we did not before you rely on a time or a level.

Ideas, not advice

We draw designs and list steps. We are not doctors or licensed professionals, and nothing here replaces advice from one. Stop using any product that makes your skin red, itchy or swollen, and ask a health professional if it lasts.

What we tested, and what we did not

We tested the studio’s 110 combinations against its level and time rules and printed the recipe card to one page. We did not test your skin, your products, every brand of polish or your printer.

Henna and face paint

Use only products whose ingredients you can identify, patch-test them, keep them away from eyes and cuts, and ask a professional when in doubt.

Times are estimates

The time is our own estimate for a first-time painter: 20 minutes for a plain two-coat manicure with drying, plus extra minutes for the pattern. Yours will differ. See also the terms of use and the privacy policy.

Frequently asked questions

Is the time exact?

No. It is an estimate for a first-time painter.

Do I need a patch test?

Test a small patch of skin before you try a new product.
