स्वस्थ नेल्स पाने के टिप्स

✔ अगर नाखून बहुत जल्दी टूटते हैं तो अपनी डाइट पर ध्यान दें और कोशिश करें कि आप हेल्थी डाइट लें |

✔ नाखूनों की चमक बढ़ाने के लिए नींबू के छिलकों को नाखूनों पर रगड़ें या फिर गुनगुने पानी में नींबू का रस मिलाकर नाखूनों को उस में डुबोए |

✔ नेलपालिस रिमूव करने के बाद क्यूटिकल क्रीम या ऑलिव आयल से नाखूनों की मसाज करें |

✔ कभी भी ब्लेड से नाखूनों को ना काटे, नेल कटर से ही नाखूनों को अच्छा शेप दें |

✔ सबसे पहले नाखूनों पर बेस कोट लगाएं | यह आपके नेल्स को प्रोटेक्ट करेगा और मजबूती भी देगा |

✔ बेस कोट के सूखने के बाद कोई भी ब्राइट कलर की नेलपालिस लगाएं | अगर कलर ज्यादा ब्राइट चाहिए, तो डबल कोट लगाएं |

✔ नेल पालिश का कलर सील करने के लिए सबसे अच्छा तरीका है कि नेल पालिश लगाने के बाद हाथों को कुछ समय तक ठंडे पानी में डुबोकर रखें |

✔ सिमरी की बजाए मैट नेलपालिस लगाएं |

✔ नेलपालिस और रिमूवर दोनों ही अच्छी क्वालिटी के ही रखें, नहीं तो नाखूनों पर दाग पड़ सकते हैं |

टीन्स के लिए नेल आर्ट और जरूरी टिप्स

Gilded Moons

Give your nails the gold treatment by painting a thin line of metallic polish around the base of your nails, following their natural shape. Then apply a soft pastel shade in the same shape just a few millimeters higher. Note: This look is best for long nails, as it can make your nail beds appear a little shorter.

Bring a sunny disposition to your fingertips with these fun, squiggly lines of warm yellow polish.

Seafoam Leaves

An eye-catching neon manicure gets even cooler when you add a leafy accent nail and a swipe of metallic polish.


Neat Neon

When you think "neon," the word "delicate" doesn't typically come to mind. But because these two bright shades are so close together, the geometric design down the middle is surprisingly subtle. The next time you want to swap out your typical neutrals for something more fun, try this bold idea.

Marble Nails: Step 1

Pick two contrasting colors — the more different they are, the better this design will show up. Apply one coat of the lighter of the two shades to all your nails, then let it dry. Once it's dry, apply a second coat that's much thicker than the first.


Marble Nails: Step 2

While the second coat of your lighter color is still wet, use a dotter tool to apply your contrasting polish.


Marble Nails: Step 3

Using the dotter tool, swirl your colors together. If your nails start looking a little too blended and you desire higher contrast, you can always add a couple more drops of the lighter shade. Let dry, then add top coat.


Marble Nails

Just like that, you've got deliciously swirled nails!

Reverse French Tip: Step 1

If you have longer nails, you'll love this look. Be sure your nails are smooth and filed evenly to make the most of your nail's natural rounded shape.


Reverse French Tip: Step 2

Paint your nails with two coats of a metallic shade, then let dry.


Reverse French Tip: Step 3

Starting about a quarter inch from the cuticle, paint a darker shade in a shape that mimics the curve of your nail. Let dry, then add top coat.


Reverse French Tip

Sexy, feminine, and oh-so-versatile, this design can be created using just about any two shades to fit the season or holiday.

Negative Space With Colorblocking: Step 1

Negative Space With Colorblocking: Step 3

Using tweezers, gently remove the tape. Apply a top coat, then let dry.


Negative Space With Colorblocking

Ultra-simple and so chic, experiment with this technique using both trendy shades or more classic picks. And for an easy twist, use a contrasting color as the base shade.

This is my first post for M&B and I will try my best to keep the ball rolling. The concept of nail art is not so popular but sure it is a very vast and extensive field from a beautician point of view. Remember that the good looking nails equally reflect a part of your dress up. Many people have begun starting taking this as a career opportunity because it seems a profitable business to them. I think that you will soon find shops making attractive designs on your nails, like today you have tattoo making shops in the market. And I am sure that if you try this art once, you will really enjoy it and you would find yourself lost with this. According to me this art is purely based on ones imagination, and you can therefore design your nails according to what is the need of the hour. The best part of the story is that it is not so much time consuming and also no so costly.

Different variants of Finger Nail Art Probably the simplest and best-known variant of nail art is the painting of the fingernails with nail polish. The nail is covered with a thin layer of lacquer with the desired color. There are huge amount of coating shades available in the market, so go with the color you prefer the most. I think this form of nail art is tested by most women.

Women now can also grow their nails with UV gel or acrylic. This is also a course covered in the nail art. In stores, many products such as color gel, powder glitter, rhinestones, nail art sticker, shell splinters, nail tattoos, etc. are available to perform this art.

Some of the nail art accessories are also used in modeling. For example, a Glitter powder is mixed with UV gel and this solution can be used for joining the nail. Other nail art products are placed at the end of modeling. Self-adhesive nail stickers are placed for example at the end of the nail and covered only with a clear lacquer. I recommend that you should use branded UV gel (some branded companies offering UV gel are: EDGE, SHEBA NAILS, KRYSTAL GEL) It is entirely possible to combine different nail art items at a modeling together. In particular, creative and experienced nail designers like to make their use, and let their imaginations run wild. Thus, the fingernails of the individual client seems to look unique and stand out from the masses. For processing of nail art you need only a few standard tools that you should have always at hand. Special thin Nail art brush with very fine quality of hair required, for example these are used in the processing of color gel or paint to draw clean lines and color shading. Here, the use of a so-called spot is recommended to draw swirls. For placement of Nails stickers and rhinestones you need tweezers or a nail design pusher.

Before you start with, I will suggest that you use a good quality nail polish as this would ensure a better look of your nails. Here is a tutorial (an example of nail art). I tried this time with a bluish green-colored nail polish in combination with a purple and pink design. One hundred percent satisfied, I’m still not, but maybe this attempt says yes to one or another of you. Here is a short example to get started with: (Refer the picture given below)

1. First of all using Nail Polish remover, remove old nail polish and make sure that the nails are properly cleaned.
2. Now, apply one thin layer of base coat (it would protect the nails from staining). Leave it to dry. If you think that the base is not strong, then better add one more thin layer over it. But avoid thick layers as it takes a lot of time to dry properly.
3. Next, apply the base. (According to the photo shown below it is bluish color).
4. Now use purple color nail polish to make diagonal lines on the nails. (Important: make it sure that the original blue base does not intervene with this color and also see to it that the lines are not too thick. So if you have a nail brush that is not so thin, then better use toothpicks). Now leave it for sufficient time so that it could dry.
5. Now take purple color nail polish and make dots in between the lines that have drawn already. (Refer picture for more clarity).
6. Now comes the most important step, the top coat. Not using top coat can completely damage your hard work and the creation. Make it sure that before you apply top coat the initial nail paint is completely dried, otherwise it may intervene with other colors. I suggest that you must wait for atleast half hour before you use top coat.

You can create amazing nail art designs at home, without spending a bomb. The next time you fancy a change in the way your nails look, stay right at home.

I’m not big on nails. I’m constantly pottering about with my plants, have my two dogs to take care of and I like dabbling in painting too. All this leaves really little scope for well-shaped, nicely-painted nails.

But if you’re nothing like me, or by some stroke of magic, you can do all this and still manage to have lovely nails, then I doff my hat at you.

I’m sure you have a lot of colours and nail care accessories at home. Or do you like to go to the salon every time you want to get your nails done? Have you tried glitter nail art? Why am I asking; of course you must have. A diva like you has to have her nails, err, fingers in everything.

But you do know how expensive and sometimes creatively limiting these salons can be. How about sitting down on a weekend, calling the girls over and doing some nail art glitter right at home?

I’ve got so many ideas that I’m simply bursting to tell you about, but space is limited and I want to show you some of the best and the easiest glitter nail art designs.

5 Gorgeous Glitter Nail Art Designs

#1 The ombre effect

An ombre is when you cover your nail in two or more colours.

• First, allow your base coat to dry completely.
• Take your preferred glitter and paint a strip at the tip or create a half-moon at the base of the nail.
• To get a faded effect, you can concentrate the glitter closer to the edge on either side and just drizzle it along the way.
• Remember to do a clear top coat on each nail to lock the glitter in.

You can also create an ombre with your base coat first.

• Red-orange, blue-white or even black-white combos look really cool.
• Once this coat dries, cover the entire nail with 1-2 coats of glitter.

Splendid! If you do this to match your outfit, you will dazzle the dance floor, ladies.

#2 An ombre, with a difference

If you want to go more creative, you can try two different glitter colours to sparkle up your nails.

Or you can try shifting directions. Instead of painting the tip or the base, you can paint one half of your nail, vertically.

#3 The easy-peasy, dipped technique

The easiest way to get a coat of glitter is the dip technique.

• Paint on your base coat.
• But before it dries, dip your finger in the bottle of glitter.
• Instant glitter nails!
• Clean off the sides
• Apply a clear top coat if you want, or leave it off for a living-on-the-edge look.

You can try the dip technique for an ombre as well. Be prepared for slightly uneven and unequal nails though.

#4 Sparkle nail art

Are all these too simple for you? You can up the game a bit by trying something more creative than a simple dip-and-go.

Apply a fresh base coat.

• Allow it to dry completely.
• Using some tweezers and a rock-steady hand, stick a single small jewel or create a pattern on your nail.
• I recommend doing the pattern near the base where it’s less likely to come off.

#5 Designing with colour

If you’re really brave (I know I’m not) you can create a pattern with your colour. There are two ways of doing that.

• You can first cover your nail with the glitter polish.
• Once it dries, paint a design around it with a contrasting solid colour.
• Alternatively, you can create cut-out patterns on your nails and fill in those with glitter paint.

Which one of these do you think you’ll try first? To keep the glitter on for longer, always use a gentle cleanser like Olay Total Effects 7 in One Foaming Cleanser that will not wash away the sparkle too soon.

Single Stripe

The single stripe nail art is trending this season as opposed to the multiple stripes of last year. Choose a nude or paler colour for the background and make a gold, black or any other colored stripe on your nails to get the single stripe nails. One of the biggest perks is that it is really easy to make!

Geometric nails

Squares, triangles, rectangles and straight lines…whatever geometrical shape you can think of, paint them on your nails, for the geometric nails are trending again! Although it takes quite a lot of effort to get them using the nail art tape, they are worth it in the end.

Simplicity is style. This gold and black dual tone manicure is quite easy to achieve and doesn’t require any special tools. To create this graffiti nail art look, wipe off excess nail polish from the brush and swipe on random stripes onto your black painted nails. Voila – you are done!

Get the appearance of beautiful turquoise and gold stones on your nails with this manicure. All that you need is a turquoise polish, a gold polish, and a plastic wrap. After applying the turquoise, apply some of the gold onto a crushed plastic wrap and dab slightly onto your nails to create the desired effect.
