嵌甲（Ingrown toenail）是常常發生於腳部，很好時於激烈跑動、腳步的變換；又或者長時間穿高踭鞋久站，都有可能讓鞋子壓迫到腳趾，導致腳趾甲往內生長，產生嵌甲。以下就告知大家如何保護好腳趾甲。
嵌甲的症狀
疼痛、紅腫，或是感染造成不明的分泌物 (含膿)，都代表著腳趾甲可能有嵌甲的狀況。如果你腳汗多、腳趾甲硬、或是糖尿病（Diabetes）患者，就需要特別注意自己雙腳了。前面兩者容易因感染或是鞋子擠壓，而產生嵌甲；糖尿病患者則是因為血液循環系統不良，一旦腳趾受傷，復原的速度會比平常人緩慢，較易發生嵌甲的毛病。
修剪腳趾甲的方法
為了避免這種情況發生，在修剪腳趾甲時，不應往趾甲兩側內縫修剪，並且不要把白色的地方都剪光，修剪完的趾甲應該偏方型，如果您怕腳趾甲邊緣太銳利，容易勾破襪子，可以用銼刀稍微將邊邊小角磨得圓潤，但不要把整個邊緣都修成圓形。
如果您發現自己有疑似嵌甲的狀況，但是趾甲還沒有陷入肉內太深、沒有強烈疼痛，而且也沒有感染跡象的話，以下有一些方法可以讓您在家動手矯正腳趾甲，預防嵌甲的情況惡化！
但若這些方法沒有緩和您的疼痛，請尋求醫生的專業治療。
Most people apply their nail polish by pulling the brush from the base to tip in one stroke. This way may be quick but it will not last long. What is the secret of professional manicurists that makes the polish so long-lasting?
I. Base Coat
Apply clear base coat before you put on shade. Not only this can help the color look sharper, the base coat can also protect the real nail.
II. Apply on Your Strong Hand First
If you are right-handed, apply on on the nails of your right hand first. Get the tougher part done first. It is easier to finish up by the strong hand lasst.
III. Do not Fetch too Much
Pull off excessive polish at the rim of the bottle, this can make the color looks more even.
IV. Apply on the top 1/3 part of the nails first
Since there is more chance that the upper part of the nails chip off first, reinforcing this area can Definitely help.
V. Double Coats
Apply a secong coat while the first coat is slightly dried. The color will look more saturated and shiny.
VI. Top Coat
You definitely need the top coat. It is the key to that extra shine and durability.

很多人塗指甲油都會從指甲底端一筆帶到指尖，這樣的畫法雖然快速，但卻不持久。究竟專業美甲師有甚麼關鍵小技巧，令指甲油可以維持更長久?
1. 底油
上色前要先打底上一層透明底油 (Base Coat)，除了能讓指甲油顏色更突出，還有保護指甲的作用。
2. 先塗慣用手
假如你是右撇子，就先塗完右手再塗左手，把難度高的先完成，就能讓自己接下來更順利。
3. 不要沾取過多的指甲油
將指甲油掃從瓶子取出時，順便在瓶口撥掉一邊刷毛的指甲油量，再塗上指甲油，就可以更均勻。
4. 先塗指甲的前三分之一
因為指甲前端最容易剝落和掉漆，這種塗法可以讓指甲前端的指甲油維持更久。
5. 塗兩層
10隻指甲都塗完，等待微乾後，再重新上第二層，讓顏色更飽和，並且更有光澤感。
6. 面油
最後一定要再上一層透明的指甲油 (或面油 Top Coat)，提升光澤度跟持久度。
If there is anything that is most annoying in the nature, it must be mosquitos. Check out what the Japanese whistle performer, Kato Marina, does to revenge on those creeps.
Kato has posted a nail art on her Twitter. Eight of her nails were sealed with mosquito specimen. The other two were painted with mosquito repellents. Anyways, this seemed to be a curse rather than an art design.
Apparently, Kato was quite a mosquito attractor. Her body was filled with bites and she constantly lost sleep from the itchiness and overnight attacks. She decided to catch a bunch of mosquitos and painstakingly cleaned off their remains.
Even it was not so easy, Kato managed to make some nice specimen. She wrapped them up in cling wrap and went to a nail technician she knew.
OPI has launched the 2022 Fall Wonders collection in InfiniteShade, Nail Polish, and GelColor sets. The shades were inspired by nature wonders from around the world. Twelve serenity shades include, light purple, grey, shimmery yellow and classic red which bring you the sence of calmness.
My favorite is ‘Peace of Mind”. This humble light purple is so calming, it practically recharged my mind with all the positivities.
