quick manicure with a little twist

step by step manicure that lasts

Here is a quick tutorial on how you can make a longer lasting cute manicure:

Here is my nails at the start, it is important that you take care of your nails and use oils before bed and softly pull down your cuticles :) but remember, no oil before nailpolish! then it will not stick:

I start out with a polish that hardens the nail, to have a hard clear base, with Depend Powerflex Nail Strengthener :

After that I use a very soft pink, not too strong color, natural:

After this I paint the tips white with a acrylic polish and a thin brush, you don´t have to be so extremely worried about painting outside the nail, just be studious about covering the whole tip from side to side and along the lower end of the tip be sure to make an arc:

Next I used the same natural pink as before to make the nail more pink and the white less white, plus i painted a simple flower at the corner of each nail:

And done! Hope you found out something useful!

Neat lace on nails

I made a simple french manicure as a base and then added a lace inspired design on top:

Tip of the day: Use a cotton swab with some nail polish remover to remove the nail polish around the cuticle so you don´t have to be afraid about painting a bit outside the edges ;)
