What do you need for work? Orange nail sticks or nail pad, two nail files (below), nippers or cuticle scissors (with curved cutting edges), cuticle softener, cuticle oil, cosmetic salt or bath soap. Also do not forget about the base under the varnish. Choose some bright lacquer (color manicure is one of the main spring fashion trends), a fixative, nourishing hand cream, nail polish remover and antibacterial agent. Now - for the cause.
Disinfect hands and instruments before proceeding with the procedure. If necessary, remove nail polish residues with an acetone-free product (more gentle). Next, you need to give shape to the nails and it is better to do it with a nail file: with a cut manicure, the nails are often stratified. Choose a nail file for natural nails with low abrasiveness (surface roughness), for example, on a paper base with emery chips. The shape of the nails is usually determined by the cuticle growth, which mirrors the edge of the nail (round - round edge, square - square).
Further, the surface of the nails is polished with a buff (four-sided file with high abrasiveness), the keratinous skin around is cleaned off.
After a spatula, or rather an orange tree stick (the wood is very soft, contains a large amount of essential oils that are antiseptics) move the cuticle back, apply a softening agent on it.
Now make a bath (for a few minutes) for hands with warm water and cosmetic salt or just soapy water. The cuticle softens even more, and the hands - rest.
After water procedures, massage your fingers, hands, rubbing cream into them.
Nippers or scissors gently cut the cuticle. The cut should go in a smooth line, not jerking, so as not to damage the skin. If a wound does appear, treat it with a disinfectant.
Now apply to the treated area cuticle oil, which does not allow it to be rough. After all the caring procedures, it is necessary to degrease the nails with a nail polish remover so that the manicure is smooth and neat.
Apply on the base of nails under the varnish. It levels the surface of the nail plate, protects it from yellowing when using colored lacquers, heals, strengthens. Immediately after applying the base, use color varnish to cover. It is necessary to start painting from the cuticle to the free edge of the nail. Try to do it quickly (so that the varnish does not dry out). Cover your nails with colored lacquer in two layers - for saturation of tone. If the lacquer gets on the skin, it is easier to remove it with a correction pencil, which is filled with acetone-based liquid.
Now cover the nails with a fixer, due to which the lacquer lasts much longer, and the nails themselves become glossy.
