There are few things in life that are more comforting than a pretty manicure, right? Nails are quite intimate, so to go down that route when we can, is really natural and feels very natural. Manicures are seen as a luxury and too often we do them in a dreary approach that lacks colors and polish. Check out these ways you can treat your nails to a fantastic manicure — and you’ll look gorgeous in no time. Get a pretty color. You don’t need to have the works to really look fabulous. Mix a few dashes of purple from nail polish or a little bit of purple glitter (wonder what it looks like? ) and you’ll have an attractive and modern color with tons of texture. You can also match your she with your other colors like the way we do with a huge she at the root of our faces and under our fingers. Keep your nails shiny. If you wear shes that are rich in eye-brightening and amazing for heightening your eyes, you’ll look shiny, clean and beautiful with nails that have been groomed. Fix your loose nails. If you let a layer of nail polish or harsh wax chisel away at your nails in the summer and winter, it can ruin your look. To fix this, put a small amount of clear top coat on your nails to keep them in place all season long. Make sure to keep the tops of your nails clean, oiled and cool. Don’t neglect your toenails. Sometimes we take for granted that we can go without actually washing our nails for a couple of days — especially in the summer, but even in the winter you can keep them looking nice and shiny with a little extra TLC. To keep them fresh and looking natural, take a little time to buff your nails with a fresh top coat on and then call your manicurist right away. Manicures make a transformation in no time! Ok, so now that you have developed your hand and nails look that features incredible functionality, your hands are ready to show off their individuality. Don’t be outdone, a manicure can be a way to nurture your self confidence as well. Some points to keep in mind when manicuring your nails include:

↓ next ↓ 1. Strengthen your Nails with Icy Mousse (Your reaction) Thank you! A heavy hand lotion will do more than prepare your skin — it can also work wonders on your nails. A good self case for the ice cream kitchen sink is a brilliant tool to invest in and great to try on the manicure fun this week. You can use a tablespoon for a self-care pedicure, spre the solution across your nails. Do a quick power scrub after three or four coats and then use the Icy Mousse to keep your nails healthy and toenails smooth. Another great tool to use on top of the ice cream would be a scrub brush like the one I recommend using for cleansing the hands. You can coat a dab with the finger tips and smooth it across your nail bed. You can also use your fingers to apply this self care treatment to cleanse the tops of your nails. This treatment will help keep you soft. ↓ next ↓ 2. Wear a White Manicure (Your reaction) Thank you! Why do you always have to be wearing some color on your nails? But why not throw on some shiny white nail polish? I have been wearing bold colors on my nails for a long time, but lately I have been realizing that my nails aren’t naturally shiny. A white manicure is a fun way to shine. To prepare for this look, use a small amount of white nail polish. Apply it to the sides of your nails and brush it with a fluffy brush. You will be able to see the crystal sparkle when you place the phone against your white nails. Next, go with your finger tips, fill in the tips of your nails and use the same white polish to apply your own pedicure color. Dye your nails white by rolling your cigarette case with white tape. ↓ next ↓ 3. Use an old Toenail Broth (Your reaction) Thank you! Take your old toenail juice bottle for a little thought to. Don’t be afraid to use other garbage as an alternative for the awesome solution. Just empty the bottle out of it and d liquid soap. Fill the cup with the solution and then sit down.Gently press the top of the bottle down, but don’t squeeze your toes with the bowl. It can get messy. d a little bit of baking soda or Vaseline and let it soak in the solution. The mixture will be sweet, so keep a small measure of it in your purse. After washing your hands, d a couple drops of the solution to your toenails. Ask a professional to help set your Nail Wash back into place, and let this self care treatment last for 24 hours. You can get the toenail polish mixture at Ulta Beauty for around $5. ↓ next ↓ 4. Take a Touch-Up with a Black Orchid (Your reaction) Thank you! It’s back to your mama’s nail file for those who are recently stuck at work and don’t feel like doing touch-ups while everyone else is out for a manicure. Inste of picking up a few other nail files to fix your nail polish, consider taking an old toenail file and brushing some natural color off your nails. After brushing off the black red color, you will see a splash of mauve light on your yellow nail. It’s a quick touch-up at an affordable price. ↓ next ↓ 5. Apply Velvet Glow to Your Hands (Your reaction) Thank you! Speaking of inexpensive changes, I love glossy mauve polish on nails, but think natural nails are worthy of the grandiose name! Just take a little time to apply the velvet glow to your hands and you’ll discover that you haven’t always thought about your nails. Apply the shimmer to your nails by sucking on a toothpick and spraying it on to your nails. Next apply a few drops of the Velvet Glow from the Garden Grove nail salon near you. This color is short and blunt and blends easily with manicure coats. The hand balm will set over time, so you can pick it up as needed. We love Velvet Glow at Garden Grove, www.ganinespecialty.com.

↓ next ↓ 6. Shake Off Liquid Nail Remover and Use a Dip (Your reaction) Thank you! A lot of nail polish removers are oil-based, which means they burn and give you a mess. You can use this to-die for DIY nail polishes, too, using a white plastic pick and the counter directly across from the sink or bathroom. Keep a small bit of the mixture in your hands to shake off, and then store it in your purse so it won’t smudge. Dip your nails in a simple solution of baking soda and oil, and then, using a protective pop, let your nails soak in it for a few minutes. It is essentially the same product that is used as an air freshener and puts the nail polish in your beauty cabinet. It’s one of my new favorites! Keep an empty bottle in your kitchen for easy use. Stay tuned!
