[搽指甲油教學] 5個貼士令你可以做出美甲師的效果

搽指甲油不是件難事,但要如何做出如美甲師搽出來的效果?就靠這5個小貼士。

1)指甲修剪,並去除死皮

首先可以軟化粗糙角質、去除死皮、增強指甲健康,想要有完美的效果,做好基本功夫是必需要。

2)不可省略的底油

一般認為底油(base coat)是給脆弱指甲的人最底層加強的,但其實底油可以讓指甲油更好塗、更持久,更顯色,也可以保護指甲不被染色,另外也是更好卸除的關鍵。

3 )由底部開始搽

搽指甲從「邊緣」開始一般搽指甲油都是指底部往上劃,但常常會塗出指甲片的範圍,只要你下次試試從指甲的1mm上可以搽,先搽中間,再補上左右兩邊,就完成了;如此一來你會發現不但順手的多,也不易塗出邊緣了,更不用來回重複塗抹,愈用愈糟。

4) 搽2層是基本

基本上一定要塗2層為了防止顏色不均勻或是厚度不平,基本上指甲油上2層是基本的,但一定要等第一層全部乾燥後,再上第2層。

5)Top Coat也是必備

Top Coat可以增加指甲面的光澤,並保護指甲顏色持久。

大家不妨試試!

[Nail Polish] I always paint out a mess, WHY?

It is not hard to apply nail polish as neat as a pro.  Keep in mind the following five steps.

1. Trim nails and exfoliate

Removing dead cells can promotes healthy nails. This is also the basic for a perfect nail polish application.

2. Applying Base coat

Did you know that base coat is more than just strengthening weak nails?  Base coat is the key for smoother application, longer lasting and better color.  It can also prevent the pigment from sticking on the real nails and allows easy removal.

3. Do not paint too close

Start 1mm clear off the base.  Brush down along the middle of the nail and then complete the two sides. Do this and you can definitely avoid running over to the skin.

4. Apply two layers

Apply one more layer after the first layer is completely dry. This can avoid uneven color and thickness.

5. Top coat

Top coat makes the nails super shiny and longer lasting.

This is certainly something special you can do!

Amputation after Manicure

A Brazilian lady found her thumb swollen and full of pus soon after she got her gel nail done. The finger looked quite frightening.

It happened because she did not notice much to a cut on her cuticle WHEN SHE DECIDED TO GET a nail extension. The fake nail was glued over the cut. A few days later, the finger became infected. The pain was so severe that she could not even work. THE DOCTOR PRESCRIBED anti-inflammatories and antibiotics, but nothing helped. She has got cellulitis. The tip of her thumb ended up being amputated.

She decided to put this tragic story on social media, warning people to be careful. People must check with the nail technician about any risk prior to getting nails done.
