This is literally the easiest nail I've ever done; all it takes is a handful of colors and a lot of patience.
To start, I put down two coats of my base color (Lilac) : I recommend using a light color first because it's a good indicator of when you're down to the final layer as well as it's better for richer colors. After that patience comes in because once the base is dry enough to touch, you can add the next layer. Then wait again until that layer is also dry enough to touch (I waited about a half hour between layers, I wouldn't recommend less) and continue to add layers and dry until you're satisfied (mine are the result of 6 or seven different layers).
Finally, when the last layer has basically dried to touch, grab a q-tip and douse it in remover (really, you want it basically dripping) and rub it gently over the nail. You'll be able to see the different layers coming through and as you get the hang of it you'll be able to try different designs by rubbing harder in different places.
Finish off with a top coat and enjoy!
