To care for your nails

"You have to moisturize! If the nails are brittle or split, massage the matrix with Apricot Cream several times a week and delicately wrap the contours with the flat tip of a boxwood stick. Same operation to remove dead skin on the surface of the nail. I never cut cuticles with the pliers as they would grow faster and denser. If the nails are really in bad shape, I advise to keep the Apricot Cream all night long. "

To nail his nails

"I pass a cardboard file under the nail, starting from the sides towards the center, in a continuous movement. So, the oval is perfect. Ban metal files that break the nail. "

Base and top coat

"On a nail rid of all traces of cream and oil, I put a base and then I apply a single layer of very fine varnish if it is clear to keep the brightness. To give depth to a varnish of color, I spend two layers, going to the end of the outer edge of the nail. I finish with top coat. "

A pock?

"With a little solvent on the finger, I spread the color. I wait a minute and I iron a coat of varnish, then I finish with the top coat. "

The color of the return

"Sailor blue, in Dior's Transat collection, as chic as a red but evoking the depth of the oceans. The gesture is simple. I push the brush that unfolds like a fan towards the cuticles. I lay down and pull towards the end of the nail. For each nail, I put a little material on the brush. "

Good to know !

To moisturize the nail continuously, apply Apricot Oil daily to the nail polish.

Streaked nails: sanding them is useless, it only weakens them.

A varnish can last four to five days by giving a layer of top coat mid-way.
