Eleven (11) tips to stop your nail polish from chipping

Image
Hello everyone! We've all had it happen: after perfecting our  manicure , we look down and realize our nail polish has chipped. It's frustrating and annoying to see all that hard work go to waste. While many of us may blame  nail polish  formulas, the problem could actually be the application technique . With these simple tricks, you can extend the life of your manicure and prevent chips . Always wipe each nail with remover before applying polish.  Then wash your hands with soap and water to get rid of any remaining oil. Do not file your nails in different directions.  If you're treating your nail file like a saw, you're making your nails more prone to peeling and breakage.  Buff your nails.   This will remove any residue and get rid of ridges.

 Hello everyone! Autumn/Fall is only a few days away and, with the new season come new nail polish colour trends .   In today's post, I will share my favourite colours for the coming season! Let me start with one of my favourite nail colour trends ; Green Green nail polishes are becoming very popular in every shade you can think of - from olive and sage to hunter green and jade. Since this is the nail colour I am wearing right now, I'm adding a  "nails of the day" (NOTD)   post in this article.    Back when I started this blog, I used to publish these types of posts quite regularly.    Deep nude Nude colours have an elegant and clean look.  Selecting a slightly deeper tone is a great  way to update your look for the new season. Deep red Reds and burgundies are traditional autumn and winter colours but hugely popular this year, nonetheless.  Brown From chocolate brown, tan, or taupe, there are various shades of brown you can choose from.  Mix and match When you cannot

Nails Of The Day (NOTD): Party Princess ✨

Image
Hello everyone! Today's post is a  nails of the day .    I haven’t posted one of these in ages!   You can view previous  NOTD  posts  here .  This is what I'm currently wearing...  This pretty nail polish colour is called Party Princess (07) by Essence .   I did not know it is this sheer until I applied the first coat.  The first coat coloured my nail a sheer pink with some glitter.  I thought it looked super cute… for little girls, that is!   I applied a second coat of nail polish, and this time it looked much better.   This nail polish is pink with glitter, very girly and pretty.   I don’t hate it but I think it’s perfect for little girls that want to feel like a “Princess”!  What do you think?    Even though I'm a grown woman, I'm still going to keep using this nail polish and enjoy my sparkly manicures.  ✨ Do you wear glitter nail polish?  Leave a comment below and let me know! Have an awe
