Appointments at saloon for manicure are expensive?
And if we learned to make beautiful nails at home? Here is the right thing to ask for a home manicure effective and complete.
First step: clean:Carefully removed the old varnish with a mild solvent (acetone) and then clean your nails with a brush designed for this purpose.
Second step: lime:We file our nails with a soft file, while respecting their natural form. Note: it is better to cut that file, because the clippers can damage the nails and split them. It also prevents the movement back and forth with the file that could raise the nail.
Third step: soaking:It softens cuticles by massaging with almond oil, a remover or cuticle softener that is applied to the base of the nail to well into the skin. They quenched our nails in warm water for a few minutes. No sweet almond oil on hand? A few drops of dish soap in warm water will be equally effective. A trick: adding capsule Polident water for nail whiteness.
Fourth step: pushing:We then gently pushes cuticles with a stick of boxwood, and cleaned with a tissue.
Fifth step: polishing:Using a polisher to smooth our nails and make them shiny. This step will also facilitate the application of varnish, if you choose to apply.
Sixth step: varnish:We apply a base (moisturizing, hardening or classic) to prevent yellowing and nail polish to help keep longer. We apply the varnish in five strokes, and voila! Hint: it leaves a small gap between the edge of the nail and the skin. In addition to lengthen the nail, it gives a nice shape.
Seventh step: finishing touches:Correcting burrs around the nail with a corrector pen or a stick soaked boxwood mild solvent. It ends with a clear coat (topcoat) that gives a touch of sparkle to the nail and ensures a better hold of colored varnish. They hydrated to soften our hands.
