It has been said that in the way a woman dresses, shoes are always the smallest detail that makes all the difference. The same can be said about nails for general beauty. You can put on perfect makeup and have perfect hair, if your nails are not taken care of, surprisingly this would be one of the first things to notice. On the other hand, even without fancy clothes, exceptionally beautiful nails will always attract positive admiration and jealousy from women and attention from men. Hands and nails are among the most attractive aspects of a woman.
A woman’s taste varies greatly in the way she likes her nails to be done, whether they are short or long, simple or expensive, monochromatic or with special designs. Longer nails are generally considered sexier as they seem to somehow make a difference between a girl and a woman. But girly can also be sexy, and nails that are too long sometimes aren’t exactly aesthetic.
No matter the size or shape, any nail look can be powerfully enhanced with a few simple moves.
1. Always keep your nails clean. Clean nails and the area under your nails any time you need to. If you use colored nail polish, don’t forget to wipe it off and reapply it every time it doesn’t look like new. Nails with half nail polish look bad and send the wrong massage.
2. Push or clip the cuticle every 2-3 days. These actions make the nail appear cleaner and longer on the finger, revealing its full aesthetic potential.
Whether you choose to push back the cuticle or push it back to cut it, do so gently and without putting too much pressure on the nail. Pressing the nail makes future nail growth wavy.
If you choose to cut them, always do so with clean, special, thinning and sharp scissors, and invest a lot of care and patience. Wounds look bad for a few days, and they’re also very dangerous for the area to become infected or even inflamed. Also, if you cut them back, it’s best to do so often, before they grow too much. When cutting through the mature skin, what remains of the skin tends to tear and lift in small pieces, an effect not seen when it is cut regularly.
Use cuticle oil or hand cream at least once a day, gently rubbing it into the nail area. This makes the cuticles around the nails softer and more elastic, which prevents the cuticles from lifting and drying out the edges.
3. Use clear or colored nail polish on your nails. Even the shortest and flattest nail will look cleaner and better with a clear nail polish on top. Also, there is a very large selection of clear nail polish products that will help you in maintaining the health of your nails. Colored nail polishes, though, are what bring it on.
We have to admit that most if not all women are fascinated by color and our nails give us the perfect opportunity to play with it.
The general rule is that you should use more natural colors for short nails and don’t set boundaries for long nails. But not everyone agrees with this rule. Strong colors on short nails are very sexy and indicate a strong personality. They bring you Tomboy style for a tough, sexy woman.
So, in the world of color, anything is permitted. What do you do with all this freedom?
Best of all, go one step further, mix it up and get an artistic design on your nails.
4. Get an amazing design on your nails.
It always seems more complicated than it really is. Sometimes a simple strip in the middle of the nail or a few dots arranged in the shape of a flower can make all the difference and doesn’t take much talent or time. There are also plenty of tools on the market that will help you achieve such creativity with almost no effort. There are special colors for nail art, more intense and with a narrow brush or a small tube (like a pen), which provides you with very high precision in applying nail polish colors.
If you want a more intricate design you still don’t need to be a specialist to do, a very easy way is to use one of these clever nail design templates. The result looks like you did it yourself, only without the mistakes, and you can also use any of your old nail polish in the process. It also gives you the freedom of multiple combinations and personal addition.
No matter which method you used to spice up your nails, after they are completely dry, apply a clear coat on top to cover and protect your creation.
If you want to make your friends really jealous of your appearance, just don’t forget about your nails!
