How to get a manicure for yourself

How to get a manicure for yourself or your friends? Manicure step by step!

It happens that there are no places for your favorite master, or you want to try to do a manicure yourself. Step-by-step instructions for home manicure will help you with this.

So, what do we need?

1. Gel polish remover

2. Degreaser

3. Lint-free wipes

4. Orange sticks

5. Nail file for shaping nails 180 grit.

6. Buff for polishing nails

7. Manicure scissors

8. Base for gel polish

9. Colored gel polish

10. Top for gel polish

11. Cuticle oil.

Now, knowing what we need to prepare for a manicure, let's proceed to its stages:

1. Remove the old nail polish coating from the nails. Moisten the napkin in the gel polish remover, apply it to the nail. Wrap your finger with foil. After 10-15 minutes, remove the gel polish together with a napkin.

2. Degrease the nail plate. Moisten a napkin in a degreaser and wipe the nail.

3. Sawdust forms. Use a nail file to give the desired shape to your nails. Move from the side to the center. Keep the tool parallel to the nail.

4. Buffing. After we have shaped the nails, we need to polish the nails. The movements should be in the same direction.

5. Push back the cuticle. We take an orange stick and gently push the cuticle to the base of the nail bed.

6. Cut off the cuticle. We work only with the tip. We put the scissors perpendicular to the nail plate. Do not cut the entire cuticle at once – so we will injure the skin. We cut it off 1-2 mm.

7. Basic coverage. We take the base that we need: transparent or colored. Take a small drop on the brush, bring it to the cuticle and go down to the side rollers. It should be applied in a thin layer.

8. Gel polish. Apply the nail polish to the middle of the nail bed, then gently finish painting the nail with a small brush. Gel polish can be applied in 2-3 layers. Each layer is dried in a lamp. Do not take too much material on the brush.

9. Top. Apply a thin layer of top to the dried gel polish, seal the ends! After that, dry it in the lamp.

10. Cuticle oil. Apply a drop of oil to the cuticle area with a brush and rub it in.

That's it! A beautiful manicure is ready.
