Tips on well Manicured Nails that Makes a Professional Statement




These are the tips i could find online. One of the fastest way i could get to have the freshly manicured look at home just before any events or hey,, just a night out with friends:-)



  •  To ensure your nails are the same length after filing, line each nail up with its counterpart.
  • Don't shake the nail polish bottle, instead roll it between your palms. This mixes the polish without causing air bubbles.
  •  Before polishing clean nails, soak a cotton ball in nail polish remover and swipe across nails. This will remove any excess oils or soap than can cause peeling once polish is applied.
  • One trick for applying nail polish: Hold the brush between the thumb and middle finger while resting your forefinger on the top of the cap.
  • To get the best results, apply thin layers. Start with a thin layer of basecoat, then apply a thin layer of polish down the middle then one on the left and one on the right. After the first coat dries for a couple minutes, repeat, then follow with a thin layer of topcoat
  •  Once your pedicure or manicure is complete, run a correction stick dipped in nail polish remover along either side of nail to fix any mistakes.
  • Speed up the drying process by aiming a blow-dryer at toes (set on cool) for a minute at a time. Be sure to keep the dryer at least 12 inches from your feet.
  • Gotta leave the house before your pedicure is dry? Apply cuticle oil over the polish. This will keep anything from sticking to your polish.
  •  If nails are yellowed or stained, apply a drop of lemon or lavender oil onto the nails and then use a buffer to buff off the stains. You can also buff nails with a peroxide toothpaste such as Arm & Hammer Peroxicare.
  • For an extra spa feeling to your home pedicure, nuke a damp towel in the microwave for a couple minutes, slather feet in moisturizer and wrap them in the warm towel.
  • Next.. Go show off your nicely manicured hands to your friend who would think your nails were proffesionally done if you did it properly. Hey thats how i do it :-)

P/S~ It took me ages before i got this right so dont get discouraged when the first time it isnt right. Practice makes perfect.. Good Luck!
