HOw do I get a perfct manicure at home??

well what i do is i file my nails first. then i buff them and then i wash my hands.


i then apply moisturizer and rub it in to my cuticles and massage my nails.


then take a q-tip dipped in water and rub over the nails so that their is no residue.


then apply a base coat of polish. let dry for a few seconds.


then apply one coat of polish carefully. (take your time) if you mess up dip a q-tip in polish remover and touch up the areas.


reapeat that step for a second coat.


let it dry a few seconds.


then apply a top coat.(i usually apply with a lot on the brush so it stays smooth instead of getting lines on your polish)


then blow dry with a hairdryer.HOw do I get a perfct manicure at home??
Use tape or something to put around your toenail so that the edges are straight, and it doesn't go onto your skin. Use a good nail polish (high quality).HOw do I get a perfct manicure at home??
get a french manicure set...works great!
Start by taking off the old polish. Lift the cuticles with an orange stick (wood stick you can buy at beauty and drug stores) or cut the cuticles if that is what you prefer. File down the nails to the shape you want and run some nail polish remover to make sure the nails are not greasy (otherwise the polish won't stick well.) Apply clear base, then two coats of the color, let dry a bit and finish with a clear top coat. To keep it looking fresh, apply a coat of clear polish every other day and use cuticle oil to keep it moisturized.
