Mini Mani

I have been attempting to grow out my nails for about 3 months and finally it seems to be working! I have a love/hate relationship with acrylic nails because they look so pretty but damage my real nails. 

I decided to give myself a mini manicure to keep my nails presentable and keep away from biting them off.

Here is what you need:
1 - top coat
1 - base coat
1 - colored polish
1 - nail filer


Step 1: File your nails to your desired shape. My preference is squares.



Step 2: Carefully apply a base coat onto your nails. This step is critical because it helps to prevent the nail polish from staining your nail.


Step 3: After the base coat is dried, apply two coats of your preferred color of nail polish.


Step 4: The last coat of polish is a clear top coat. This will allow your nails to hold a perfect shine!


Step 5: (Optional) Once your nails are completely dry, wash them with soap and like warm water to get rid of any polish that leaked onto your skin.
