Why Manicure | Nail Care? As I browsed down my Facebook page, I grew green with envy seeing my friend’s perfectly designed nails. Her nail art was amazing; she even had a page of her showcasing her nails and her nail art. Nails are undeniably one of the most important things for a woman. We, women, spend hours getting a manicure and getting our nails painted.

We do it with a lot of care but still, things go wrong and today I am going to give you some fantastic nail care tips so that you can flaunt your perfect nails on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and other social networking sites. Apart from social networking sites, it gives one great pleasure to watch the saleswomen stare at your perfect nails when you pay the bill, or to have your lover kiss them and your hand.So the first nail care tip is that whenever you do your dishes, wear rubber gloves. Rubber gloves are very important as they protect you nails form two things, one is the dirt and the second is the hard dishwashing soap.

The chemicals can do a lot of damage to your skin and it can also make your hand rough. So don’t ever do the dishes without wearing rubber gloves and also if you are about to do some other work gardening, painting your house, cleaning the chimney or any other dirty work then please wear rubber gloves.

Don’t polish your nails too often because it makes your nails weaker and that will lead to frequent chipping of nails. Polish your nails only twice or thrice a month and not more than that. Buy high-quality nail polish to reduce the damage and be patient while painting your nails.

  • Get a manicure once a month, cut your nails regularly, and file them.
  • To remove your nail polish, soak a cotton ball with nail polish remover and gently rub it on your nails until the nail paint comes off.
  • Then soak your hands in lukewarm water and gently clean your cuticles with a washcloth.
  • After making sure that there is no nail polish left on your nails, soak your hands in a bowl of lemon juice.
  • This will help to make your nails stronger.
  • Wash your hands gently with water and file your nails properly.
  • After this, make sure that you wait for a day before applying another coat of nail polish.

Hence, these are some of the nail care tips, which you ought to follow to have good, healthy and beautiful nails.
