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.
