For the ladies out there who just love their nails so much, and wanted to keep it looking fabulous. I'd be doing some tutorial blogs here in designing your own nails. I hope you'll like them. Before anything else, i'd like to list few important things first. [img=http://i43.tinypic.com/wuqmip.jpg] * base coat - it's like a clear nail polish, it has vitamin E which moisturizes nails and it also prevents nails from chippings and having nail stains from polishes. * top coat - it's like a clear nail polish, it makes the nail polish looks shiny or matte depending on what kind of top coat you use. * nail art tools - i personally have a nail art pen. It has dual purpose, one as a pen and the other one as a detailed brush. If you don't have it you can use a dotter or toothpick in lieu of it. * detailed brush - is just like an ordinary nail polish brush except that its brush is thinner and longer. I advice, always use a base and top coat for your manicure to last longer. Always remember to let polishes dry a bit first before applying another coat for it not to chip easily. And lastly, I'll be mentioning in my up coming blogs the names of the nail polishes that i particularly used. You are not obliged to use the same though, you may apply any color you want.
