Nails!

I decided that i was going to explain to you guys how i do my nails. Step #1-clean all polish off of your nails (making sure you COMPLETELY get all the polish off-this ensures that your polish will go on more evenly). #2 soak your hands in a cup of hot water for 10ish minuets or until the water becomes cold( this will make your nails soft so there will be less damage when you file and buff them). #3 file and buff your nails to the desired shape and trim them to the desired length(the most common/appropriate shape is slightly rounded and just slightly longer then the end of your finger).#4 put oil on your cuticles and push them back. #5 wipe off oil and put a lotion all over your hands. #6 put on a base coat.#7 apply desired polish and let dry until completely hard.#8 put on a good top coat that is one that will prevent chipping!#9 show everybody your fabulous new nails. Email me Responses and suggestions! Hope to hear from you all soon !

(sorry i couldn't get this to rotate!)
I used.......

Jil Jordan Island Bliss hand and body lotion
Jil Jordan french cuticle treatment


Polish i used......
Base coat- OPI start to finish
Polish color- Essie VIP #391(its a dark purple)
Top coat-OPI Chip Skip

This is what it looked like on my fingers
(it looks kind of blackish-green but it is actually a dark purple)
Sorry about the lighting i know it stinks!:(


These are all of the tools that i used(plus a nail clipper)
I got this at Clairs But you can find them anywhere(tjmax,walmart,or any beauty store)
Plus as a added bonus this is super handy for travel!

  1. Is OPI "Chip Skip" the best top coat? I need a really good one that makes polish last! Which one do you recommend?
