Whether to save time or money, a DIY at-home manicure can be a fun practice in self-care.
Step 1.ApplyNail Polish Removerto start with a clean slate. We recommend anacetone-freenailpolish remover which easily removes even the darkest shades of nail polish without drying the nail.
Step2.Cleanse. Clean your hands and moisturize. If having a mani day with friends, take turns massaging each other's arms.
Step3. Clip.Whether you have short or long nails, it's always great to start by clipping your nails. For short nails, clip to just below the top of your finger keeping them short, but still looking feminine.
Step4. File.To achieve the desired shape, use a nail file to shape your nails. Tip: mirror the curve at the base of your nails.
Step5. Buff.Using a buffer will smooth the surface of your nail and even out ridges.
Step6. Push back the cuticles and applyCuticle Treatment.Let it sit for one minute, andpush back the cuticle.Softening cuticles will eliminate rough spots and dead skin around the nail keeping your manicure looking fresh for longer.
Step7. ApplyBase Coat.This lays the foundation for polish application and it protects the nail from being stained by the polish. Wait 3-5 minutes for it to dry.
Step8. Apply your first coat ofNail Polish.Make sure you only coat one side of the brush to avoid drips. Start in the middle of the nail and work down to the cuticle, then up to the nail tip, then fan the brush to the right and left sides of the nail until it's evenly coated. Our custom, extra thick brush makes this process a breeze!

Step10. ApplyTop Coat.Seal in the color and you're done! Choose from our Top Coat for a classic look,Matte Top Coatfor a fun finish, orGel Top Coatfor a plump, ultra-shiny manicure.Wait 3-5 minutes.
A manicure is a beauty treatment of the hands. Your nails will be cut, filed, and shaped. You will then have your cuticles pushed back and tidied, and then enjoy a hand massage. The final step will be the painting of the nails with a colour of your choice.

The first step to applying the base coat is ensuring that each nail is completely clean. You don't want any dirt or oils to get in the way of your nail polish. So, make sure each nail is clean before you apply the base coat. Place a small amount of the base coat on a nail polish brush.
A basic or standard manicure is the traditional manicure that you're probably familiar with. Here your nails are trimmed, shaped and buffed. Cuticle oil is applied and cuticles are managed too. You'll usually get to enjoy a wonderfully relaxing hand massage. At the end, standard nail polish is applied.

A standard manicure usually includes trimming, shaping, filing, and buffing your nails, addressing your cuticles, which could include trimming and a cuticle oil treatment, and a hand massage.
