Keeping your hands looking clean, feminine, and polished doesn't require weekly trips to the manicurist! Try these easy steps at home for a perfect nail care:

1. Use cuticle oil:
Dry, raggedy cuticles look unkempt. Massage in a drop of cuticle oil to moisturize and soften dry spots.


2. Condition before going to bed:
Smooth a cream nail strengthener onto and under nails before bed for extra hydration.


3. Go sheer:
For a foolproof polish job, pick a sheer colour with a touch of shimmer. It will look great with just one coat.


4. Buff away ridges:
Vertical lines in nails make hands look aged. Use a buffer to smooth away those ridges.


5. Keep 'em short:
Long nails look talon-esque even if kept meticulously manicured. File tips to just beyond the end of your finger.


6. Go French:
French manicures have made a comeback as a classy, chic alternative to simple polish.


7. Moisturize with every washing:
Use moisturizer whenever you get your hands wet.
