Good Morning Ladies. I figured I'd post a brief blog with some tips and methods i use to keep my nails looking good. Of course these ideas will be quick and inexpensive. As a mom of 3 i'm on a tight budget. Which is why i do my own manicures instead of going to a salon.
Read on if you'd like to know more.
How I Remove my nail polish.(super quick and easy)
I know I had posted a youtube video to my facebook that shows this method but i thought I'd let you know anyway.
The first thing is you will need 10-11 cotton Balls, nail polish remover, and 10 squares of regular tin foil.
You moisten your cotton ball with remover. Place it on top of the nail. Wrap the top of the finger with the cotton ball in tightly tin foil. Continue for all nails. Wait about 5-10 mins. Rub the foul a little bit. Pull off the foil and Viola all the polish is gone. This method works great when using glitter polishes, rhinestones or any othe nail art design.
A great tip to whiten and brighten your nails is to cover the nail with whitebing toothpaste let sit for 10 mins and you have instantly whiter nails.
When i soak my hands for a full manicure i pour some healing lotion into the bowl add some warmer water. I then stir it until most of the lotion has dissolved. I then add more water and add 2 store brand DENTURE CLEANSER TABLETS to the water. So not only am I softening and moisturizing my hands the denture cleabser helps clean and whiten your nails. I think i paid $6 for 100 tablets.
Also it is very important to never bite or pick your nails always keep a nail file and clear polish on hand.
Clear nail polish is key to strong nails. Even if you don't wear color you should put a coat or two of clear on every 2-3 days. This provides strength and helps the nail from breakong, peeling or splitting.
I hear all the time "my nails are weak, they bend, i can't grow them." to me those are excuses. If you follow some of my tips they will help you acheive long, strong natural nails.
I hope you all try some of these ideas. Let me know how they worked.
Also I am interested to know if you all would like more tips and ideas for inexpensive nail and beauty products and ideas.
