Turn Your Hands Into Real-Life Jedi Masters

Gift-wrapped hula-hoops are not only fun, but they can work to get your hands a little healthier! “Studies have shown that yoga and even regular exercise can improve the nails of those with Type 2 diabetes. I’ve also found that exercising with my daughters really encourages them to do more positive things, like packing up their own lunches instead of going to school every day.” — Tips by Suzy Gonzalez, nail tech at Lee Daniel’s nail salon

Take a Lesson From Pinterest

“The more I read Pinterest’s beauty boards, the more I realized how useful they are. I have found the perfect polish colors that match my clothes or nail polish colors I have worn in the past.” — Tips by Reina Garcia, nail tech at Liberty Nails

Moss Out Those Bad Nails

“Combine three types of oils or formulas: the sulfate-free oil, mineral oil, and infused oil. They are super moisturizing and will not dehydrate your nails.” — Tips by Annika Lefkowitz, nail tech at Nail Lacquer

Buy Extra Mascara

“When it comes to adding mascara to the ends of your lashes, I always recommend not overdoing it. Mascara on the ends will shorten your lashes, so just a bit here and there will be a huge benefit.” — Tips by Sarah Bose, nail tech at Liberty Nails

The Easy Way to Make Nails Stronger

“Kip, a chemical agent, is sprayed onto the nail bed every day. It absorbs toxins and keeps the nail strong. It’s almost identical to having the nail file removed for a quick clean.” — Tips by Sarah Bose, nail tech at Liberty Nails

How to Make Your Manicures Last Longer

The ease of removing that “ease-of-doing-something” shouldn’t come at the expense of your nail polish. When it comes to getting the most from your manicure, remember to do your bare nails first. That way your manicure will last longer and you’ll have fewer wavy, fried nails to come home to.
