Nail Art - Acrylic and Fake Nails

Image
Nail art is a really good fashion statement - although it is a really small part of the body but it’s very cute and outstanding if you color it RIGHT - it is just like wearing other accessories, doing nail coloring especially putting long acrylic and fake nail become another fashion trend.

So I tried to get it done when I went to Japan last time =) Here’re some more pictures to inspire you to do nail art this spring.

Beautiful Nails With OPI Nail Polish There’s just nothing quite as elegant and graceful looking than a set of manicured nails. Although getting a nails manicure these days isn’t just for the rich and famous, there are still some things to keep in mind when getting one. One is to make sure you only use the best quality and long lasting products out there. If you’re one to believe that all nail polish are the same, you are completely wrong.

Intensive Moisture Treatment In not forget to pamper your hands aside from your nails. Apply moisturizers so natural oils can be replenished. Once in a while, should try to do an intensive moisture treatment for your hands. Sometimes, normal application of moisturizers just doesn’t cut it so make sure to schedule doing an intensive moisture treatment before you sleep even just once a week. To start with your hand’s intensive moisture treatment, you should get yourself a pair of cotton gloves. These gloves were especially made for overnight moisturizing. There are many products out there that are made for this. Personally, I will just use any hand moisturizer that is available. I will then put on the gloves and then sleep. The result is that it will pamper your hands and your manicure will last a lot longer at the same time. Intensive Moisture Treatment

Every hand is different, but there are few common shapes and sizes to hands that can help you to determine how you should shape your nails. The way your cuticle is shaped will also help * For cuticles that are oval at the base, square shaped nails are appropriate * For cuticles that are pointed, oval shaped nails might be better suited * For small hands and fingers, try almond shaped nails * Short and plump fingers look best with squared-off, oval nails * Thicker hands or fingers with a wide nail bed should have squared off ends. * Longer nail beds look best with rounded nails.
