Beautiful and well-groomed hands are the calling card of any girl. It is worth understanding the difference between a beautiful manicure and a correct one. What is the right manicure?
1. Cut the cuticle
Nail care professionals say that the cuticle should not be cut during the procedure. It is the protective barrier of the nail. And having lost the cuticle, the nail loses this protector and the risk of infection increases.
It is clear that it is absolutely impossible not to touch it. In such cases, masters recommend using special cosmetics for the cuticle, which exfoliate the top layer of dead cuticle cells.
2. File nails in different directions
How else? To accelerate the elimination of defects in the nail, many women begin to quickly wield a nail file "back and forth". It has long been proven that after such manipulations, damage to the nail plate occurs.
It is considered correct to direct the file and act in one direction, from one corner to another. To do this, you need to be patient, but maintain the structure of the nail.
3. To paint nails with a thick layer
It should be understood that a thin layer dries faster and lasts longer than one layer, but thick. In addition, there is a great chance to ruin a manicure with a thick layer by brushing your fingernail somewhere.
4. Shake a bottle of varnish
In order to give the chosen varnish a more liquid structure, it was unofficially to dangle the bottle in different directions, turn it over, etc. After such actions, the varnish mass of varnish is filled with oxygen and when it is applied, no one appears the necessary bubbles. Better to loosen it up by rolling it in your palms.
5. Forgetting to handle the tips of the nail plate
In order to enjoy the manicure for a long time, it is necessary to "close" the color at the end of the nail. Before applying the last layer, you need to go with a brush with color along the edge of the nail. Thus, the manicure is protected from chipping along the edges of the length of the nail plate.
6. Apply the last coat casually
Because the topcoat has no color, it is neglected by many. This is not noticeable on a freshly made manicure. After all layers are completely dry, you will notice exactly where the nail is not covered with fixative.
A topcoat is not only applied to add extra shine. It also performs the function of protecting the coating. Over time, chips form in the missing places and the manicure will have to be done again.
7. Dry the varnish under running cold water
The jet of water changes the structure of the varnish, but does not in any way affect the speed of its drying. The secret is that the varnish simply crystallizes when exposed to air. If the manicure was completed relatively recently, then it is still better to wash your hands in cool water.
8. Using a stick to clean your ears
To adjust the manicure, many come to the conclusion that a cotton swab is suitable for this. But women do not take into account the size of the cotton part and, through carelessness, can simply ruin the fresh coating. Better to take a thin brush for drawing on the nails and clean up all the imperfections.
9. Nail file and gel polish
At a manicure session, you are offered to cut off the remains of gel polish? You need to refuse such a procedure and change your master. The fact is that together with the varnish, the surface of the nail plate is cut off. This usually does not lead to anything good.
