Tips for Perfect DIY Manicures and Pedicures

6

#1: Use a paintbrush

Try dipping a small paintbrush in remover and using that to remove nail polish that makes it on the skin. I also use a toothpick to clean of the edges.

#2: Vaseline cuticles

Out of cuticle oil…or didn’t have any to begin with? I’m guilty of the latter. Use vaseline as a substitute!

#3: Rubber base coat

Want your nail polish to stay on longer? I mean who doesn’t? Before putting on your colored polish, always use a base coat.

#4: Multiple thin coats

This one seems obvious, but it’s really made a difference in my nail game. Really try to just do one “swipe” at a time, let the layer dry (this is important!), and then repeat.

#5: Always use a top-coat

Always use a top-coat for extra shine and longer lasting polish. And most importantly…no chipping!

#6: Cold water for drying

Sick of waiting forever to let your nails dry? After 10-15 minutes(ish), stick your hands or feet into cold water to help polish dry faster.
