Since we can’t go to the nail salon right now, sharing my at-home manicure routine and favorite manicure tools.
Step 1: Remove nail polish with strengthening nail polish remover.
Step 2: Apply cuticle remover to all your cuticles.
Step 3: Push back your cuticles with orangewood manicure sticks.
Step 4: Remove cuticles and hangnails with this Sephora Collection cuticle nipper (the best out there imo).
Step 5: File your nails into desired shape with Diamond Cosmetics emery boards.
Step 6: Rinse off the nail dust and wipe nails with alcohol wipes.
Step 7: Paint your nails with your favorite nail polish. I usually do pink or white hues. I don’t use a base coat, but I always use a top coat. My favorite is by OPI.
Step 8: To prevent chips and strengthen/harden my nails, I apply a coat of Nailtiques Formula 2 on my nails every day after a manicure. It goes on clear and dries really quickly.
Enjoy!
