2011 Nails Designs
Spring & Summer 2011 Nails Designs Ideas & Tips
2011 is bringing quite a bit to the table as far as color and 2011 nails designs go. The question that you might be asking yourself is—what exactly are the 2011 nails designs? After all, you want to look as absolutely fabulous as you possibly can as soon as you possibly can. The question that you might be wondering is—how exactly do you pull this off as soon as possible. First of all, before you decide to choose nail designs, determine if they are practical for you. If not, you may want to look into other nail design options that may be a little bit easier or more practical to maintain.

Moon manicures are really, really popular right now. You can take any two colors that really, really appeal to you and you can then paint your nails those two colors. A moon manicure is a lot like a reverse manicure—instead of your nail tips being painted pretty colors, your nail near the cuticle is painted in a crescent and the rest is then painted.
Rhinestones and crystals are also really, really, really popular this year as far as nail design goes. You can mix it up with a combination of small and big rhinestones and crystals—or you can keep it quick and simple with one or two stones on your thumbs or any other nails that you might choose.
Red nails are back in fashion, as is gold foil as a design on the nail. You can mix these two up by painting your nails red, letting them completely dry, and then putting a little bit of gold on top.

MAKING YOUR NAIL POLISH LAST

MAKING YOUR NAIL POLISH LAST
Let’s face it; most women greatly enjoy getting professional manicures. Not only do they come out looking flawless, but they can be extremely relaxing. However, one of the biggest downsides to shelling out 15-30 bucks for a manicure is that the color eventually begins to peel and fade. Most of us have experience that horrifying feeling when we scrape our newly manicured nail against a wall, ruining the smooth coating of paint.
There are ways to protect your investment by keeping your nail polish fresh and new looking for a longer period of time. First, nail polish color will become damaged by prolonged exposure to the sun. Therefore, it will be beneficial for your nails (as well as your skin and hair) to avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
One way to preserve your personal bottles of nail polish is to make sure the bottles are shut tight. Leaving the bottle open will expose the polish to air, causing it to dry up. This will make the entire bottle essentially unusable, and you will have to throw it away.
Furthermore, there are brands of nail polish that will last longer than others. When purchasing nail polish, it is important to keep in mind that you get what you pay for. In other words, the more expensive the nail polish, the more durable that polish is going to be after being transferred to your fingernails. There are big differences between qualities of nail polish, and it is likely that you will have to experiment before finding the one that is best suited for you.
