If you like to do your nails at home, here are some tricks for the perfect manicure. Doing your nails by yourself doesn’t have to be a challenge, all you need are a few insider tricks from the pros to get a neater and longer-lasting manicure. Although it’s very easy to mess up your manicure, the following tips and tricks are guaranteed to help you to do it flawlessly.
To help your #nail polish adhere better, wipe your nails with a paper towel dampened with white vinegar before applying it. This will remove any excess oil left from your nail polish remover and prevent bubbles. After that, apply a base coat – it both protects your nails and helps a nail #polish adhere better.
Instead of one thick coat, apply two thin coats of nail polish, allowing the first coat to dry for a minute. If you want your manicure to last longer, you will need a top coat. Apply it over your polish and allow it to set.
If you are in a hurry, use ice water to dry your nails - just dip them in cold water for 30 seconds. To prevent smudges and set your manicure, you can also use some oil spray and spray your nails with it.



When some of your nail polish ends up on the skin around the nails, there is a great tip to help you. To erase mistakes, dip a tiny brush into a nail polish remover and erase all the excess nail polish around your nails. Also, to keep your polish on your nails and off your #skin, apply some Vaseline to your cuticles. After painting your nails, just clean up any leftover Vaseline.
