1. Clean your nails:

A clean base is the absolute KEY to a great manicure. I don’t know if your salon does this, but the salon I visit, they always clean my nails with a nail polish remover, regardless of me wearing a nail paint or not. ย This is a great step to include into your nail polishing regime, since it cleans your nails from any dirt that might not be entirely visible to the naked eye. This step also gets rid of any moisture or oils covering your nails, which could result in a messy manicure. So keeping your nails clean from all of the above, will provide you with a longer lasting manicure for sure.

2. Help your cuticles:

Never cut your cuticles, they are rather painful. However using oils like Jessicaโ€™s Phenomen oil to moisturise and hydrate them will do wonders for you. Using tools to push your cuticles down, will provide you with more space on your nails as well as give your manicure a neater look.

3. Base Coat And Top Coat:

I usually give the top coat a miss, that is because I am in such a rush constantly. However, if you like to keep your manicure secured for more than a week, using a good base and top coat will increase your manicure’s life by a week for sure. Essie has some lovely ones!

4. General Tips:

If you make an error while applying polish on your nails, and if you are as clumsy as me, make use of a q-tip to correct the nail polish that might have escaped onto your fingers. Simply dip the q-tip into your nail polish remover and scrape the excess of, it always works. Moreover, I would also suggest this tip to ladies who have household chores. To prevent your nail polish from chipping and to increase the life of your manicure, wear gloves to do the dishes. This is WAY better than direct exposure to water and detergent and God knows what! This will definitely prevent you from those odd chips here and there in the first initial days itself.
