• To begin with, make sure all your tools are clean and sterilized.
• Remove your old nail polish, using cotton ball and nail polish remover(prefer non acetone nail polish remover)
• Then proceed towards shaping your nails, never file your nails when wet (read that again its a sin to file your nails when they are wet coz they can break too easily).you can shape your nails in either of these 4 basic shapes: round, square, oval and pointed. The shape of the nail should conform to the shape of finger. File your nails in one direction. Back and forth motion is a big no no.
• Soak your nails in soapy lukewarm water for 5 to 10 minutes, you can add e few drops of essential oil of any fragrances of your chance (my personal favourite lavender), Epson salt and few drops of lemon juice (it de stains your nails).
• Apply cuticle cream or Vaseline and push your cuticles back with help of ear bud. Apply cream or Vaseline and massage your hands well. Avid cutting cuticles coz its painful and may cause infections.
• Wash your nails using a nail brush.
• Exfoliate your skin taking soapy water and sugar to get rid of dead skin.
• Soak your hands again.
