Do your own manicure at home!

I just went to the nail salon and as I was sitting there watching this little woman do my nails, I was thinking I can do that! I have all the tools, exactly what they use on me! How hard really is it to do nails! So I am making a list of steps and tools to use for the perfect at home manicure!!

Step 1: Take off anynail polish that you have on your nails with nail polish remover.

Step 2: Make sure that your hands are clean and get a little container to soak your hands in warm water, this will soften the cuticles and the nails, and remove any dirt that may be under the nail.

Step 3: Dry your hands and pull out the following tools:

A.  Filing Stone this one is great because it is able to perform two jobs file the nail and push the cuticle down.

B. Nailclipper that was designed to cut the fingernails.

C. Base Coat that helps the wearibility of the nail polish

D. Nail Polish and light color or french manicure is best for Spring/ Summer!

E. Top Coat to add over the nail polish so that nail polish does not chip or peel.

Step 4: Take your fingernail clippers and cut the nails a little longer than the desired length.

Step 5: Take the nail file/ cuticle pusher and push the cuticles, then file the nails either round or square.  I perfer the round, but that me!

Step 6: Wash your hands and make sure they are dry.

Step 7: Apply the base coat on each nail.  Let them dry.

Step 8: Apply Nail Polish on each nail, I usually apply two coats, to get the desired color. Let them dry

Step 9: Apply the Top Coat on each nail.  Let them dry.

Step 10: Do not move until they are completely dry, otherwise you will have to do steps 6-9 again!

I hope this helps the ladies that do not want to pay the $20 + to get a manicure! Once in awhile ofcourse you will need to go to the salon, but if you do these steps it will minimize the amount of visits!!

Outlast anything!!

This has got to be the BEST invention women will ever have presented to them! I absolutely love this, it really does “outlast”.  I can tell you that I have put it on in the morning and pretty much have had it on ALL day! Sometimes I go through breakfast and lunch all the way till I make it home! This is an INCREDIBLE product, and every woman should own atleast two!
