They were pretty easy to use, although I had a few problems keeping my lines as neat on my right hand! I did bring out my dotting tool to do the dots, since I wasn't really able to get dots where I wanted them with the brushes. The white polish was also a little prone to smearing when I did a top coat of Seche Vite, but that was easily avoided by "floating" the top coat so you don't actually touch the nail art with the brush. The base coat is China Glaze "Escaping Reality" from their Cirque du Soleil Worlds Away Collection.
