How to get a Perfect Manicure!

Hi everyone, again! I know this isn't really about fashion, but I've been thinking 'bout offering beauty tips too. Tell if you like them :] Well, this one is about how to get a perfect manicure without wasting much time or wasting loads of money.

First thing would be removing the nail laquer in your nails. Do it with a cotton swab dipped in alcohol or acetone. Second one would be better, it wouldn't be so strong for the skin round the nails.

Next, you have to put down the cuticles. You can do it, either with a toothpick (it would hurt a bit), or with a proffessional thing-o which name I don't know. It looks like this:

They have 2 ends: one pointy, one curvy. To out your cuticles down, use the curvy one. They can be easily found in drug stores. Before doing this, you have to put moisturizing cream on the cuticles, so they aren't too hard to put down,

Third thing, you have to give your nails a shape. You can do it with a nail file. But, there is a special nail file which will not only give shape to your nails, it will also polish them! It's the 4-side-file. It looks like this:

The first one gives shape. You have to use it as a normal nail file. The second, third and fourth one polish the nail. You have to use them in the whole nail, not only in the tip. It will live the nails smoother. This kind of nail file can be found in any drug store. You can find it to as a prism, with one face for each thing.

The 4th step is to put nail base. It's a transparent liquid like this:

It is for the nails to look smoother. When you put it on, you have to let it dry before putting the real color. When you've finished with the nails, you have to remove the polish that you put outside your nails. To do so, you have to wait for it to dry and remove it with a cotton swab with alcohol or acetone.

Well, that's it! You'll have wonderful proffessional nails when you finish! It looks like it takes too long, but it doesn't. It takes less than 30 minutes. Let me know if you try it! :D
