French Tip

Can't seem to get the lines of your French manicure looking smooth? If you don't have the stickers to help you create a French tip, simply place one hand on a table and run the brush across the tip from one corner to the other with a steady hand in one swift swipe. This will ensure that the tips are not jagged but in a straight line.

Nails

Keeping your nails gleaming all week isn't hard. Prepping the nail correctly and applying the polish precisely is key.

Nail prep:
  • Remove all non-living cuticle from the nail plate using a cuticle remover and an orange wood stick.
  • Cleanse the plate with a pure soap like ivory liquid soap and a soft nail brush.
  • Remove moisture with an acetone-based nail cleaner.

Polish application:
  • Apply a very thin coat of base coat to nails and let it dry.
  • Thin out nail colour by rolling the bottle between the palms of your hands and apply one thin, translucent coat to nails. Let dry.
  • Apply a second thin coat of colour to nails for full coverage. Let it dry.
  • Seal with top coat and let dry. Wait for a full 10 minutes after application before engaging your hands in any activity. This will help create a hard, protective and high-shine manicure that will last for days.
Maintenance:
  • Apply cuticle oil to the cuticles and sides of nails every night before bedtime to keep the manicure and nail in top condition.
