[How to Avoid It?] One Factor causes a 36-year-old British Woman’s Nail Loss after Manicure

Recently, a 36-year-old British woman named Lisa Dewey, who had years of experience in manicures and no history of allergies, experienced a serious issue after a manicure that resulted in the complete loss of her nails, greatly impacting her daily life and confidence.

In February of this year, after a routine manicure, she began experiencing pain and inflammation on her fingertips, followed by the peeling off of her gel nails. She sought medical attention and was diagnosed with a bacterial infection. Lisa was prescribed antibiotics and steroid creams, which improved the condition of her nails. The nail inflammation appeared to have healed, so in April, she decided to get acrylic nails.

However, after this manicure, Lisa Dewey’s nail problems worsened. She described excruciating pain in her fingers to the point where she could hardly move them. Within a few days, her nails started to peel off, and the skin around her nails became fragile like “paper,” feeling like it could be torn off at any moment. The severe nail issues affected her daily life, preventing her from washing her daughter’s hair, doing dishes, fastening seat belts, and even holding a pen without experiencing extreme pain.

Not only did her nails detach from the nail bed, but the nail bed and surrounding areas also turned purple. Lisa was concerned about possible oxygen deprivation and the need for finger amputation, so she stopped using cleansers and skincare products. She has now started a new round of medication in hopes of improvement and resolving the problem.

After her recovery, Lisa has decided not to undergo any further manicures and advises everyone that even if they have had no issues with manicures for many years, they could still unfortunately encounter bacterial infections or allergic reactions, which can be troublesome.

Nail infections caused by manicures have been reported in the news frequently, causing many girls who desire manicures to hesitate. However, it’s important to note that by choosing reputable nail salons and ensuring that manicure tools are disinfected after each use, gel nails and acrylic nails can be safe and free from toxins.

在眾多啤酒當中,Suntory 啤酒尤其是金麥系列就更加是她的最愛。

啤酒美甲的還原度超高,很多商標的細節都一一畫好,真是相當厲害! 不少網民都驚嘆 Marina 的實力,難以置信竟然不是美甲列印,而是人手彩繪,那種天份和實力實在令人傾倒!

Autumn’s most popular nail trends! Japanese Nail Artist shares 2023 autumn nail art

Feeling uninspired when it comes to nail designs lately? Take a look at the insights shared by Kayo, the Education Director of OPI Japan, and discover the latest trends in Japan!

Bubble Nail: Vibrant Bubble Nail Art
This style is currently very popular in Japan! Start off the early autumn season with light and bright bubble nail art, reminiscent of the lingering summer heat. Choose a base color in soft, pastel shades with a translucent or slightly shimmering finish. Then, use jelly gel, builder gel, or bubble gel to create the bubble texture. Finally, apply the bubbles onto your nails for a quick and refreshing bubble nail art that catches the eye.

Drop Art: Water Ripple Nail Art
This technique allows for quick and creative nail art. Choose the main color tones based on the season. When it’s still slightly warm, opt for sheer aquatic tones or candy-inspired shades to kickstart your fall nail journey. As the temperature gradually cools, go for more grayscale Morandi or earthy shades to create water ripple nail art, instantly transforming your fingertips from the scorching days of summer to an elegant and chilly autumn atmosphere.

Autumn Floral Nail Art
During the transition between seasons, warm color tones are perfect, especially elegant and gentle Morandi floral patterns. It is recommended to choose a matte finish in Morandi shades, creating a contrasting effect with floral patterns on the fingertips. You can also use builder gel to create a three-dimensional flowing pattern on the nails and enhance the delicacy with mirror powder, achieving a fluid metallic effect that instantly elevates the sophistication of your fingertips.

No matter which nail art you choose, it’s all about adding highlights and personality to your autumn look. Let your nails become a way to showcase your style! 💅✨
