How to Put on Artificial Nails?

Nails are an important part of our body and are often neglected. But just like the lips or cheeks, nails also need a little bit of care to look beautiful. And maintaining long and beautiful nails is not a difficult task at all. It just needs a little care daily that can go a long way in earning you much appreciation for your nails from your friends and colleagues.

But not every woman has good quality of nails; some women prefer to have very short nails while other have broken or brittle nails and they surely do not look attractive. In such a case, a woman can go for the artificial nails. These are made from acrylic and are easy to put on the real nails. Also known as fake nails, the artificial nails are easily available in the market and can be conveniently attached and removed from the real nails.

Let us see the steps that can be followed while putting on the artificial nails.

First of all, remove the old nail polish from your nails and clean them. Now trim them properly so that the cuticles are pushed back sufficiently. Do not try to rough your nails thinking that this will help in sticking the fake nails easily. Roughing up your nails can only damage the natural nail bed and that can be really disastrous, so avoid doing that. Once you have clean and dry nails, apply some nail glue to your nails and paste the artificial nails. You need to be careful while placing the artificial nails, as any misjudgment in doing so can spoil the look of your nails.

Once the fake nails adhere properly, start filing them to an appropriate shape. The best option is to file the nails to a moderate level so that they neither appear too short nor too long. Once you shape the nails according to your requirement, apply a few drops of nail oil and let it dry. Once the fake nails dry up, you can put on the nail polish of your desired color.

That’s it. Now you can flaunt your artificial nails and receive much appreciation for your long and beautiful nails from everyone.
