the guide to basic colour nails

morning bloggers! apologies for the lack of posts recently! busy times.
i hope all of you are enjoying the sunshine!

with summer arriving i always enjoy spending time to do my nails.
unfortunately me being me i am a perfectionist and usually spend hours where others only spend minutes applying the all important..base coat..yes it does take me HOURS just to complete one hand. however the finished product is worth it. during the next month or so i shall be showing you some ideas for nail painting!
GUIDE TO BASIC COLOUR NAILS.

1) remove any previous nail varnish from your fingers
i personally recommend getting an instant nail polish dip and twist remover. I just find it quick and simple.

2)cut any skins and file your nails till you are happy with them then wash your hands to soften them up again.

3)apply your base coat and wait around 2 minutes for it to dry.

4) choose the colour you wish to have and then paint it on be careful as to not touch your nails for the next 5-6 minutes.

5)then apply top coat and wait 2 more minutes.

finito!
