Details are what really make the difference, in style and elegance. That’s why manicure is never an element to be underestimated:the best and most complete of outfits could be ruined by poorly maintained nails.
But always having perfect nails is not easy, as our hands are called upon daily to perform dozens, if not hundreds, of indispensable gestures. This is why semi-permanent hands was born, a technique that allows you to have perfect nails for at least 2 to 3 weeks. Provided, of course, that you do not run into any “accidents.”
Do you therefore want to have tidy hands for as long as possible? Part of the job, of course, is done by the professional you rely on:the more careful and precise they are in their work, the longer and more perfect your nails will be. But you, too, can and should do your part by implementing a few tricks that will help you to have hands that can be admired.
Using gloves
It seems obvious, yet too often many women have not internalized the habit of using gloves while doing household chores. From everyday tasks such as washing dishes to more strenuous ones such as gardening, wearing gloves allows you to repair your hands from scratches and burns and protect your nails as well.
Do not underestimate this aspect:one careless gesture while doing chores is enough to ruin the nail;and one broken nail ruins the whole job.
Nail Preparation
Good preparation is the foundation for a successful semi-permanent manicure. Be sure to clean the nails thoroughly to remove any previous nail polish residue and gently push the cuticles back. Gently file the nails to achieve an even result and a smooth nail, so that the polish can adhere better and last longer.
Precision in application is critical for a long-lasting manicure.
Using Quality Base and Top Coat
The essential products that ensure the durability of semi-permanent nail polish are a good base coat and a good top coat.
The former allows products to adhere well to the natural nail, while the latter gives shine and protection to the final manicure. A durable, glossy top coat will help prevent polish deterioration, keeping nails looking perfect longer.
Choosing reinforced semipermanent
If you know that you need to do several “dangerous”tasks to your nail polish, or if you have particularly brittle nails, the solution to your problems is reinforced semipermanent. This is a new technique that is halfway between semipermanent and gel. By allowing it to form a slight curvature on the backbone, it is more resistant to impact and thus decreases the risk of chipping, which is so annoying to see.
