How long do your manicures last?
| Sun, 04-01-2012 - 9:53am |
Last week I did a manicure and it lasted 7 days! They usually last about 5 days. What I did different is that I used a basecoat + nail color + topcoat + quick dry. That's the only thing I did different.
How about you? How long do your manicures last?

Wow, that is amazing 7 days!! I'm going to pass what you do along to my sister. She has the hardest time making her manicures last so last week she
I was kind of surprised my manicure lasted as long as it did. Of course when I'm cleaning the bathroom or have to wash dishes by hand I always wear my rubber gloves LOL
One thing I didn't mention is before I actually paint my nails I put on a nail oil and massage into my nails and cuticles for a few minutes and then wash it off. That's just my routine when I do my nails.
I hope your sister has luck with her natural nails.

I get them through 7 days by doing base + 2 coats of polish + top coat + dryer on Sunday night.
Kelly - that's sounds great! I never put more than one coat, well it depends on how bright I want the nail color.

It does take a while to remove it, at least when I do it (manicurists do it faster).
Yikes - that does sound distracting (ministers with nail art or what-not)
Happy Easter to you too! Hope you have a glorious day ;-)

I even use CND Stickey and it still only lasts a day. It's bad. We weren't even sure the gel would stick.
The funny thing is that I've been wearing polish my whole life and it's only the past few years that I've had this issue.
How odd is that? I've never EVER had a problem with nail color not sticking so I can't imagine. You got the gels at a salon? What did the nail tech say about it not sticking?
