Items You Will Need:

- Cotton Balls
- Non-acetone Nail Polish Remover
- Paper Towels
- Nail Scrub Brush
- Nail File
- Acrylic Nail Clipper/Cutter
- Artificial Nail Tips (Optional)
- Nail Glue (If applying tips)
- Dappen Dish
- Acrylic Liquid
- Acrylic Powder
- Acrylic Brush (Sable recommended)
- Filing Block (4-sided, fine grit)
- Cuticle Oil

Let's Get Started:

1. Remove any existing nail polish with a non-acetone nail polish remover.
2. Don't use an acetone remover because it will dissolve artificial nail tips and acrylic.
3. Trim and file your nails.
4. Prepare your nails by giving them a really neat manicure to remove all the dead skin and to smooth out rough edges. Trim nails back short almost to the skin, not too far though. The reason for cutting your nail back short is that if the tip of your acrylic nail breaks, it won't take half of your natural nail off with it.
5. Use a soft file to remove the natural nail shine (the top layer of the nail).
6. File in one direction only rather than back and forth to help prevent weakening the nail.
7. Gently push back your cuticles.

Prevent nails cracking and exfoliation

Sometimes due to a weak diet and external factors, our nails get exfoliated.

To prevent and treat this, pet your nails for 14 days with a slice of lemon, twice a day.

Besides this, try to check and improve your diet, such way to bring into your system more vitamins - A, B, C, Omega 3, Ca and Zinc

(eating fish, eggs, carrots, spinach, parsley, various seeds, walnuts, etc)

that helps your shin, hair and nails be in a healthy stage.
