Use a base and top coat, and if you do lots of housework like me, be sure to wear gloves, especially when doing dishes!
February 17th, 2014 at 12:07 PMI use Julep nail polish. It lasts longer than other brands. Keep nails shorter and apply moisturizer or oil to prevent from splitting. Avoid hand sanitizer as it eats away the top coat. =)
February 17th, 2014 at 12:14 PMI Reapply topcoat after a few days by reapplying topcoat it restore shine and prevent chips and it helps give my manicure new life. By the way beautiful giveaway and thanks for the chance <3
February 17th, 2014 at 12:14 PMI always wipe down my nails with 91% alcohol right before I lay down my base coat to make sure all the oils/product are off my nail beds. A strong foundation is the most important part. If the base coat can’t stick, your manicure is doomed!!
February 17th, 2014 at 12:16 PMMake me Gorgeous Beauty in the Bag! Thanks for the chance
February 17th, 2014 at 12:41 PMI always use two coats of polish with one coat of my clear top coat. I always make sure that I paint the front end outer part of my nails, even down onto the other side just slightly. I want to really make sure that I seal my nail color well 🙂
February 17th, 2014 at 12:57 PMMake sure to not glob on the polish and to cap off the underside of the tip
February 17th, 2014 at 1:36 PMI always buff my nails before I apply polish and seal entire surface, under and around with a topcoat.
February 17th, 2014 at 1:37 PMALWAYS!!!!! I mean always buff your nails. Clean up all the dust and some of you cuticles with rubbing alcohol so you get a great stick from your polish!! 🙂
February 17th, 2014 at 1:43 PMYou can should be sure to wait long enough between coats and try not to put it on too think, that just ruins it. Be sure to use a good top coat.
February 17th, 2014 at 3:12 PMI always use base coat (OPI Nail Envy), two thin coats of polish and topcoat (Butter London Quick Dry) and my polish stays on pretty well. Julep and Butter London polish both work great for me! 🙂 Would love to win this!
February 17th, 2014 at 3:31 PMUse a hand scrub every other day to keep cuticles in shape.
February 17th, 2014 at 4:02 PMI’ve discovered that my nail color last longer when I have clean, healthy nails. I like to soak my nails in a lemon juice/hot water mixture about three times a month, trim my cuticles, and MOISTURIZE! Moisturizing is very important to my hands. I’d love to win this; Julep is my favorite! 🙂
February 17th, 2014 at 4:04 PMI use cuticle oil to soften my cuticles be for I cut them. I makes my hands smell really nice too!
February 17th, 2014 at 6:56 PMUse a good quality base coat & top coat.
February 17th, 2014 at 7:55 PMWow! What an amazing kit! I agree – Julep polish DOES tend to last longer than other brands 🙂 I also make sure to let my nails dry completely so they don’t accidentally smudge or chip.
February 17th, 2014 at 10:01 PMI apply a clear top coat on the very tips of my nails, as well as underneath the nail. I tend to get chipped polish on the very ends of my nails, so I find coating it with clear over the edge and underneath really keeps them looking great for a lot longer
February 17th, 2014 at 10:59 PMI apply one coat of polish and then a few days later when it starts to look faded and chipped I apply a second coat. I usually apply a 3rd coat before I remove it all and start fresh. I do a lot of housework and gardening so I find this works best for me.
February 17th, 2014 at 11:44 PMMake sure nails are clean and dry to make manicure last
February 18th, 2014 at 5:47 AMI found nail polish can last longer in the freezer
February 18th, 2014 at 9:31 AMuse a top coat and use gloves when washing dishes
February 18th, 2014 at 11:49 AMOooo, I’ve always wanted to try Julep nail polish! On extending my manicure, I always start of with clean dry hands, and always apply a clear top coat and quick dry drops.
February 19th, 2014 at 2:57 AMI always use olive oil to soften my cuticles instead of expensive storebrands. Just make sure you wash the cuticle area with hand soap and water after tending to the cuticles, before you apply polish!!
February 19th, 2014 at 12:15 PMI like to use a thinner top coat, seems to make my polish last longer than a thicker application.
February 19th, 2014 at 3:20 PMVanish Cuticle Softener & Remover would be great to manage my cuticles. On color I love bright bold colors. I think it’s best to get them noticed because that’s the whole point.
February 19th, 2014 at 3:20 PMWearing gloves when doing dishes, and using a top coat every day protects my manicure. I also moisture my hands every night by wearing cotton gloves while sleeping and that helps protect my cuticles.
February 19th, 2014 at 3:42 PMAlways use base coat!
February 19th, 2014 at 3:59 PMI always use base- and top coat and wrapp my tips after every coat.
February 19th, 2014 at 4:26 PMI love my gel nails!!!!
February 19th, 2014 at 4:34 PMApply top coat everyday or at least every other day. Wear gloves when doing dishes or hand s are in water. Swipe fingernails with remover before first coat of polish to remove any oils. Apply a little extra to the tips and underside of first coat where chips start.
February 19th, 2014 at 5:03 PMDon’t just wait till the nail polish is dry; be really careful with your nails for a really long time so the polish can cure.
February 19th, 2014 at 8:40 PMclean your nails and lightly buff them before adding a base coat the add 2 coats of color allowing them to dry in between coats then add a top coat allow them to dry throughly and make the kids do the dishes lol!
February 20th, 2014 at 12:28 AMI always use a base coat on clean nails then apply the color of choice & last the top coat. I always use gloves when doing any cleaning, gardening or anything else whcih will diminish or destroy my orignal nail polish routine and take a nail,skin & collagen supplement since I have Hypothyroid issues. Beleive me, the Tyhroid is the utmost regulator for all celluar, hormaonal & organs. If you do not have this problem, you are truly blessed. It affects everyday life regardelss if your “lab numbers are in range!!!”
February 20th, 2014 at 4:21 AMuse several thin coats of polish and apply another top coat every couple of days
February 20th, 2014 at 10:24 AMGorgeous prize package! What fun?! I wear gloves while cleaning the
February 20th, 2014 at 11:49 AMhouse and such. As far as nail preparation, I soak and moisturize the nail and cuticles, first, then make sure to apply thin coats of nail polish and
under the tip of each nail…
Many thanks, Cindi
Don’t do any, any yardwork or paperwork for that matter.
February 20th, 2014 at 5:04 PMI always make sure my nails are clean, then have my cuticles moisturized and pushed back before I use any polish. The only problem with moisturizing the cuticle is any slick residue that may be left on the actual nail. I use a small cotton flat with homemade rosewater to wipe my nailbeds and then I start with a base coat. I generally use 2 coats of polish and a top coat with kevlar fibers in it. I own horses and have two young boys and my nail polish lasts surprisingly long using this process. I love Julep, it’s one of my two go to polish lines. Thanks a ton for another great giveaway!!!
February 21st, 2014 at 12:53 AMWear gloves when washing dishes or cleaning and refresh the manà with another coat until it is time to change your color.
February 21st, 2014 at 11:01 AMLet’s see what can I add, everything’s pretty much been covered, I can say that when by pocket book allows there is nothing better or longer lasting than gel manis. Love them.
February 21st, 2014 at 1:33 PMuse a clear base coat then 2 coats and a clear top coat
February 21st, 2014 at 3:28 PMKeep nails short and have at least 2 layers of top coat to seal it.
February 21st, 2014 at 6:34 PMCleaning my nails with Zoya Remove+ before applying base coat and going over the tips of my nails with an extra layer of top coat!
February 22nd, 2014 at 10:33 PMCuticle oil and Vinegar! The vinegar might sound strange but it works so well!
