Beautiful Shiny Nails

Your nails are a reflection of your overall health. Many women constantly change the style, material, and color of their nails without considering the importance of maintaining nail health, resulting in yellowing, dry, and brittle nails.

You don’t have to get your nails done every month and spend money on a service. You can easily take care of your nails at home.

One of the famous nail experts, Tom Bachik, who specializes in caring for famous celebrities like Victoria Beckham, Gwen Stephanie, Beyonce, gave some practical and useful advice on how to create effective and long-lasting nails.

The Harmful Effects of Nail Biting

Nail biting can be a sign of emotional imbalance, according to a study published in the American Journal of Orthodontics and Dentofacial Orthopedics (AJODO).

Avoid cutting the cuticles. Tom advises that you take care of them properly, the simplest way is to clean them while you are bathing as the skin becomes soft and soap helps separate the cuticle layers.

When you regularly go to the salon to cut the skin around your nails, you develop a habit for the skin to grow back quickly, similar to waxing your arms and legs. The more you wax, the faster and thicker the hair grows, making it impossible to stop.

Avoid soaking your nails before polishing, as this weakens them. Not to mention after soaking, using a hairdryer to dry them to make the gel layer on the nail last longer, causing serious damage to nail health.

Revealing the Secrets of Your Nails

(TNO) Women like to decorate their nails with paint and stickers. Although they spend hours in spas and nail art salons to have perfect nails, few truly care to understand the significance of their nails.

Before applying an oil-based nail polish, dip a cotton swab in saltwater and then in acetone solution, wipe it on the surface for initial protection, let it dry, and then proceed to paint.

Apply a base coat, followed by a colored top coat. Do not shake the bottle before using it, as it will fill the air inside and create air bubbles that can damage your nails. It will be much more effective if you rub the nail polish bottle on the palm of your hand.

Before applying another layer of nail polish, make sure the base coat is completely dry. Top coats dry faster than colored nail polish, and if you use them while the base coat is still wet, it will dry the oil-based surface but will later become prone to smudging or denting under atmospheric pressure.
