It is not easy for a modern girl to be beautiful and well-groomed, come home from work, and there washing, cleaning and as a result of manicure alone memories. And what should I do to escape to the salon? But, as a rule, our free time does not coincide with the time of the salons, and there is nothing left but to make a manicure at home and I would like to do it right.
Proper manicure at home is not easy, but it is quite feasible. But before talking about how to properly do a manicure at home, you need to decide on the look. There are edging, hardware and unedged types of manicure. Hardware will not be considered, as it is impossible to make it at home qualitatively - non-professional devices have less power and do not give good results. As the name implies, an edging manicure is one in which the cuticle is removed mechanically, and when uncoordinated, chemistry comes to the rescue. Each of the species has its own shortcomings and dignities. For example, edging takes not so much time and gives good results, but in the absence of proper skill you can get sores and inflammation of the skin around the nails. Uncutaneous manicure helps the nails look neat, does not give side effects like scratches, but the remedies used to remove the cuticle can cause an allergic reaction in people with sensitive skin. Here's how to properly make a manicure in these ways, we'll consider.
How correctly to do an edging manicure?
Any correct manicure, regardless of whether it is done in the salon or at home, begins with the removal of nail polish. Then we give the nails a shape, filing them from the edges to the center. Next we prepare a bath for hands. Need hot water and sea salt or liquid soap, you can also add lemon juice to warm water, it will help soften the cuticle. But if the skin on your hands is sore, then salt is better to refuse and dissolve in the water a broth of chamomile or oak bark. Hold the hands in the water for 5 minutes, and then dry with a towel. Now we lift the cuticle and cut it. For cutting, you can use nippers or special scissors, to whom you like. The main thing is that the tool is of high quality, and therefore it is better to ignore cheap sets of bad materials when buying. Cropping the cuticle, we try to make a solid line, because if it is "torn", then burrs and inflammations will not escape. When pruning you need to remove only the dead skin particles, and therefore we are not too zealous. If the cuticle is cut too deep, it will quickly grow back and become rough, and you can damage the nail so. After cutting, we apply oil to the cuticle or a special agent to soften it. And then, lightly massaging,
How correctly to do the unedged manicure?
As with the previous type of manicure, it is correct to start unedged with the removal of varnish and sawing the nails, then it is necessary to apply a means for exfoliating the cuticle. Further we immerse the hands in a bath, the same as in the previous version. After 5 minutes, remove your hands from the bath and dry with a towel. We do not rush to take out all the fingers immediately from the solution, we need to process one by one, the pinky is clean, and the rest we keep in the water. Next, we remove the dissolved particles of the cuticle with the help of a wooden stick and level it. If previously a trimmed manicure was done, then burrs may appear, they can be carefully trimmed with tweezers. Now we lubricate the skin around the nail with caring oil. Now you can apply a nourishing cream on your hands and start applying a protective or decorative coating on your nails.
