• Trim your nails

When doing a manicure at home, you need to use scissors with rounded blades or special nippers. Do not cut your nails with straight scissors, this will lead to the appearance of microcracks, and in the future to their fragility.

• File your nails

Use only individual manicure tools; at home, they must also be disinfected. The thinner and weaker the nail plate, the finer the abrasive coating of the file should be. When shaping the nail plate, use the file in one direction: from the edge to the center. This will prevent delamination.

• Apply oil or cuticle remover to the cuticle

Spread it evenly over the cuticle and the edges of the nail roll, let stand for 1-2 minutes.

• Dip your hands in a bath of warm water for 10-15 minutes, then blot your fingers with a towel

• Gently push back the cuticle with a stick, clearing the nail plate from skin particles

It is recommended to do a manicure at home using an unedged method. The use of nippers causes increased cuticle growth, which complicates hand care.

• Polish the plate with a special sanding file

• Apply moisturizer and give a light hand massage
• Apply varnish if desired

If you, while doing a manicure at home, apply the coating after a moisturizer, you must first degrease the nail plate with a special degreaser, you can buy it at any cosmetics store.

When performing a manicure at home, it is important to choose the correct nail shape. It will allow you to favorably emphasize the shape and length of the fingers or to correct it if necessary.

Playing with shapes will allow you to create unexpected and daring images.

• Degrease the nail plate
• Apply base coat and let it dry

Colored varnish should be applied to a transparent base. This will not only increase the durability of the varnish, but also protect the nails from pigmentation.

• Place a drop of nail polish in the center just above the cuticle
• Gently move the drop with a brush in the direction of the cuticle, leaving a small gap

• Brush up to the end of the nail

Try not to change the pressure on the brush while you are driving it, the movements should be smooth.

• Place the brush down again and run along the edge of the cuticle

• Move the brush upward until the entire side is evenly varnished
• Brush along the other side of the cuticle

• Color to finish the remaining half
• If necessary, apply a second coat of varnish when the first is dry

After the colored varnish has dried, it is recommended to apply a fixing coat. This will give the coating a delightful glossy shine and significantly prolong the durability of the manicure.
