Step 7. Moisturize cuticle area …
Apply cuticle oil or cream at the base of the nail. Brush nails gently in a soapy water with a downward motion. Dry hands and nails thoroughly. Next use a very fine emery board. Buff nails giving them a smooth beveled edge. Wipe nails to remove any particles of cuticle or dead skin.
Step 8. Apply base coat …
Apply base coat using long strokes. When the base coat is dry to a light touch apply polish.
Step 9. Apply nail polish …
Apply polish lightly with strokes from the base to the tip. Excess polish on cuticle or nail can be easily removed with cotton tipped orangewood stick moistened with polish remover.
Step 10. Apply top coat …
Apply a top or seal coat. Brushing the top or seal coat around and under the tips of the nail will give the nail added protection.
Step 11. Apply lotion …
The final step is to apply lotion. This can be done if time permits. Nails need to be completely dry. Start at the wrists moving down to the fingertips with light rubbing motion.
