The Nails Manicure

Nails Manicure: It is a method in which you clean your nails and give them proper and beautiful shape and soften the skin of your hands to make them look beautiful and shapely at home. Manicure is done once a week. You can do it yourself home too. Keep all the things in a tray before doing manicure.

Manicuring Things Needed :- 2 mugs warm water with shampoo, nail polish, nail polish remover, manicure set (Emery board), Cuticle pusher to clean the inside of the nails nail cutter or scissors, orange stick, hand lotion or hand cream, cotton, towel. Buy a manicure box and you will get everything in that but you have to buy mugs, nail polish, nail polish remover, hand lotion, cotton and towel separately.

Manicuring Method :- Put some nail polish remover on cotton and remove the old nail polish from nails. Hold the cotton between fingers and move it so that it does not spoil the other hand.

Cut your nails a little if they are very long, give them a round shape on every board if not so long. Don’t rub the sides of the nail too much as the sides might break. The skin of the sides might become hard too. Oval shape of nails is the best one.

Rub cold cream on each nail and massage, they soften. Keep the hands in a mug of warm water. Take hands out and fold some cotton on the orange stick and remove dirt from nails and give a good shape to the cuticle (the part near the root of the nails is called cuticle) by pressing it there.

Rub cream again on the hands and put them in warm water. Now wipe them softly with a towel. Clean them well with an orange stick.

Manicure Nails at Home

When you have shaped the external edge of the nails with a fine pair of scissors, finish with emery or a steel nail file. And always, before beginning to

manicure your nails, soak them in hot soap water and cleanse with the nail brush. When you polish the nails, use paste first, and do not apply the powder till afterward. As a buffer you can use the palm of the other hand. A thorough “home” manicuring should be undertaken at least once a week.

There are many very satisfactory nail pastes and polishes on the market. A liquid polish is usually best for the nails, all the more if there is no paste foundation. Carmine, which gives a pleasing pink tint, should be the paste used. Never use the liquid varnishes which produce a sheen without the aid of the buffer. They have a deteriorating action on the nails themselves. You brush your teeth every night. It is just as easy to devote a few minutes to

your nail cuticles as well.

The Nails Bleach

A good and simple nail bleach for use beneath the free edges of the nails is made by mixing an ounce of hydrogen peroxide with a quarterounce, respectively, of ammonia and lemon juice. Before polishing the nails wash out the bleach with hot water. Keep your manicuring tools in good condition, and throw away your orange stick as soon as it roughens. For a buffer, if you do not care to use your palm, buy a buffer frame and renew the chamois skin.
