This article provides useful information on what you should pay attention to in order to create the perfect manicure, what to do with problem nails and how to properly dry your nails so that your manicure is not in vain.
What to look out for
In the case when it comes to beautiful and well-groomed nails, even the smallest details should be taken into account. After all, as it happens, it is precisely such trifles that can play a big role in the whole business. All the necessary tools for shaping and correction can be purchased in specialized stores or even in cosmetic stores. They are available to all buyers.
Giving the desired shape to the nails is the basis of the basics and without which the manicure will look like a ridiculous picture. An ugly manicure looks several times worse than simple unpainted nails. And this is a fact. In this case, it is better not to paint your nails at all. So it will be more reasonable and rational.
To begin with, it is imperative to remove all existing irregularities on the nail plate itself. This can be done with a nail file - a buffer or a special grinding machine, if any. With the help of such tools, you can very carefully remove all the irregularities on the nail plate itself, so that in the future the varnish lays down evenly and very neatly. To fix the material, you can use a nail file to add shine to the nail plate. These nail files are very gentle and do not harm the surface of the nail.
Next, you need to carefully trim the nail, but only so that the nail is even. The action can be performed both with the help of simple nail scissors, and with the help of special hard nail files. Everything is up to the choice of the person.
The next thing you need to pay due attention to is the cuticle. It is she who is the cause of an unsuccessful manicure, if it is poorly processed. In the event that burrs have formed on the cuticle, then in no case should they be torn off, but can only be carefully trimmed. Ripping them off, blood wounds are formed, which cause discomfort and infection can get into them. Therefore, you need to be extremely careful with such areas. Gently removing the cuticle is quite simple.
First you need to put your hands in a special bath with warm water. In such a bath, you can pour a little cosmetic salt, or a special tool. To achieve the best effect, you can apply a special remover to the cuticle area in advance. It actively softens the skin. And the removal of regrown areas will be much faster and easier. You can cut off the overgrown cuticle using special tweezers. Thanks to them, the best result is achieved.
In addition to all of the above, it is worth paying attention to the nutrition of nails. It means that the nails can be treated with a special wax that protects the nail plate and gives it a unique shine. In addition, there are special nourishing cuticle oils. Which keep these areas in a well-groomed condition.
Problematic nails, what to do with them?
Not all nails can be completely perfect. There are also capricious options that are difficult to correct and cause a lot of inconvenience. They can acquire an unpleasant yellow tint, exfoliate and even break. But in such cases, you need to know exactly what to do with such nails and how to properly care for them:
1. If the nails exfoliate
In this case, it is necessary to understand what caused the stratification. It can be both mechanical damage and dermatological. In the event that the problem is not related to dermatological, then the nails can be treated in simple home conditions. To do this, you need to make simple, but very effective procedures in the form of useful nail baths. For example, iodine. Just dilute 3 drops of iodine with warm water. Only 300 milliliters of warm water can be poured from the tap. At the end of the procedure, it is necessary not to wet the nails. And let the product soak into them. The procedure must be repeated daily for 2 weeks.
2. If the nails turn yellow
You can tell exactly what the nails can turn yellow - either nail polish or smoking. Two options. Nails acquire an unpleasant yellow color, and sometimes not even a healthy shade. In order to get rid of such a pigment, you must use sea salt or lemon juice. These products perfectly whiten the nail plate and give the nails a healthy and natural color. You need to use these components in the form of a bath. Just mix a handful of salt or a few drops of lemon juice with 300 milliliters of warm water.
3. Brittle nails
Brittle nails are one of the most common problems that can occur with nails. The most unpleasant thing is when long nails break. In this case, you have to cut everything at once. This is due to the fact that the nail plate has lost much-needed moisture. To make up for it, it is enough just to do paraffin baths. Or purchase a paraffin mask for hands and nails. The secret lies in the fact that the bath or mask is best done using cellophane gloves and special mittens. The effect will be amazing. It is enough to perform the procedure every four days to achieve a positive result.
Proper drying of nails is the key to a perfect manicure.
In fact, it is. Most often, simple nail polishes dry for a very long time. Because of this, you can forget that the nails are painted and accidentally touch a new manicure, thereby smearing the painted surface. It can be said unequivocally that the manicure is spoiled. In this case, it is best to use special liquids in the form of sprays that speed up the drying process of nail polish. It is enough space to apply such a spray on the painted nail plate and let the product dry the nails. The manicure will be perfect.
It is strictly forbidden to dry nail polish with a hair dryer. Hot air does not dry the varnish, but simply softens it. What can we say about overdrying of the skin of the hands and cuticles.
