After all, you have spent precious time and good money on your new manicure, and having these well-groomed, brand new tips taken away too soon is sure to spoil your mood. Well, here are a few things you can do to make sure that the nails you worked so hard on remain in the most well groomed state as long as possible.

Before your manicure, it is important to remove any old nail paint with the help of a nail polish remover.

All the residual oil and residue should be washed off before a manicure to work with fresh, clean nails. This helps the nail polish to stick to your nails better, and longer.

Always apply a base coat before applying the nail polish, as it will help your nail polish to stick better and for a longer period of time on to your nails.

The base coat and then every single coat of nail polish should be allowed to dry off properly before the next coat is applied.

Finish your manicure with a protective layer of topcoat.

Always protect your hands with gloves.
