Buy clear polish and put a thick coat on each nail one at a time. After applying the coat, wipe immediately. Do not let it dry. This should remove the old nail polish off the nail as well. It's quick, easy and cheap, since a bottle of clear nail polish costs around 99 centsCharunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20396927.post-87485346921890398012009-12-03T10:07:27.307+05:302009-12-03T10:07:27.307+05:30File trouble spots.

Begin by applying the base coat for the nail in smooth lines from the base of the nail outward. Some have suggested that laying a horizontal band of polish along the tip of the nail and then applying the polish from the base outward can help prolong chip-free wear. The technique is slightly more difficult to perfect, but may be worth attempting if your nail polish chips frequently. Apply the base coat on all nails (it is usually easiest to start by applying polish to the dominant hand using the non-dominant hand and then switching); let the base dry. Apply two coats of the chosen color on each nail, letting the coats dry fully. Apply the top coat last and let the nails dry again.Beauty expertnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20396927.post-39809356331986299572009-06-17T08:33:55.660+05:302009-06-17T08:33:55.660+05:30Be consistent, patient and realistic!

Yes it does take as much as two hours for polish to dry enough to wear shoes. Let it be fun! Enjoy those bright colors and soft feet, but remember that everyday life also leaves marks. If estheticians could control physics and chemistry, believe me they would.Rosynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20396927.post-82169111311792968252009-06-17T08:23:22.859+05:302009-06-17T08:23:22.859+05:30Avoid the skin.

The put some nail polish remover in the cap and get a small brush that has short, stiff bristles but not long. Then, upside down, dip the brush into the remover and brush away the "bad" part of the white, while you are shaping it to the desired size of tip you want. Continue the same on all you nails and then polish one or two coats of a sheer color like pink or beige for french manicures.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20396927.post-3356629725803037712009-04-14T17:15:00.000+05:302009-04-14T17:15:00.000+05:30Remove the old polish.

Press the cotton ball over the nail for a few seconds to soften the old polish. Wipe gently with the cotton ball on the nail starting at the base of the nail to the tip.
