Tips To Prevent Your Pretty Nail Polish From Chipping

Want pretty perfect nails? We got you!

In spite of the fact that you may be the world's most impatient person, you must exhibit the patience of a saint when painting your nails; otherwise, the beautiful polish will chip, nick, fracture, and peel off in a matter of hours. You'll find some simple advice in this post on how to extend the life of your manicure and avoid chips.

Smooth the Nail Bed Out

Nail buffing has numerous purposes – it promotes healthy nails and nail development, eliminates dry, ridged skin, and makes it easier to apply nail paint evenly, extending the use time of the polish.

Use nail paint remover

The oils and other materials on the nails can hinder nail polishing from sticking effectively on the nail bed, thus brushing a cotton ball coated in nail paint remover over the nails briefly before application helps the polish last longer.

Put on a topcoat

Have we discussed how important it is to use a base colour before putting on polish to smooth out any bumps? Do not apply beads of polish all at once to your nails; doing so will not only make your manicure seem sloppy, but will also increase the likelihood that your nail polish may chip.

Always use a top coat to protect your manicure and give your nails a glossy finish that will last longer.

Dos and Dont’s

Premature chipping of the nails can be prevented by avoiding exposure to harsh detergents, which contain chemicals that can damage the nails.

Don't put your hands in hot water.

If you apply the polish too heavily, it will chip and flake off more rapidly.

Apply with thin applications, avoiding the cuticles.

Don't shake the paint container; instead, roll it back and forth between your hands to mix the paint and eliminate the possibility of air bubbles becoming caught in the paint and causing cracks when the paint dries.

No one ends with just one coat; we all need two to three to obtain an opaque coating. Waiting 10 minutes between layers prevents the polish from looking sloppy.

If you've just painted your nails, wait for them to dry before doing anything else. Doing anything else before it dries completely may cause dust or other stuff to stick to it, causing it to look filthy.

After 20 minutes, soak your nails in cold water to ensure the paint has dried completely, and then resume your normal routine.
