What You Will Need
Before we delve into the process, make sure you have the following supplies ready:
- Semipermanent nail polish (choose your desired color)
- A base coat
- A top coat
- A nail file
- An orange stick or cuticle pusher
- Alcohol wipes
- Cotton pads
- A UV or LED nail lamp
Preparation
Prepare your nails by trimming and shaping them to your desired length. Use a gentle nail file to smoothen the edges and remove any ridges on the surface. Gently push back your cuticles using an orange stick or a cuticle pusher. Once your nails are prepped, it’s time to apply the semipermanent nail polish.
Applying Semipermanent Nail Polish
Follow these steps to achieve a flawless application:
- Start by applying a thin layer of base coat to protect your natural nails.
- Carefully apply a thin layer of your chosen semipermanent nail polish color. Be sure to cover the entire nail surface without touching the skin.
- Place your hand under the UV or LED nail lamp and cure the polish according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
- Apply a second thin layer of semipermanent nail polish color and cure it under the nail lamp again.
- Finish off with a thin layer of top coat for added shine and protection. Cure it under the lamp one final time.
Remember to clean any excess polish from your cuticles using an orange stick or a cuticle pusher soaked in nail polish remover. Use alcohol wipes or cotton pads soaked in alcohol to wipe away any residues from the nail surface.
