I am sorry this is a day late... Only my second week I to the Mani Monday posts, and I've already missed one. Well its for a good(ish) reason, my whole entire family got hit HARD with these horrible colds! And each person who gets it, gets it a little differs t than the one before them.. Its been awful.
And of course one thing I do when I'm sick is... Bit my nails.. So I had started to grow my nails nice and normal length to start posting picture (or even videos) attached to these blogs with photos of bail designs, but of course now I need to grow them out again.
But that's ok, because there is still a lot of "before a manicure" type stuff I'd like to brush on anyway.
Like today, cuticles. You can have the cutes polish in the world, but if your cuticles are a mess, your manicure is going to look like a mess.
Mine are not perfect by any means people! I am still on the hunt for that perfect product while still maintaining a small budget. Right now I am using a Donna Mitchell cuticle cream that I came across at the dollar tree and LOVE it! It has a cute little tube with a point to aim just on the cuticle. I carry this in my purse and use it all the time when I'm bored Lol.
Another thing I use is Sally Hansen hand and cuticle cream that I got from a voxbox. I do like that a lot too, I usually use that before bed and my hands will be soft by morning.
Another thing that I use that may be a little controversial by some, but I use a cuticle clipper. Some say to never ever use them because they can cause infections and damage to your cuticles. But that hasn't happened not me yet. And I can't see just pushing mine back, I need to push them, and cut them too.
But of course if you don't feel comfortable doing that, than you can just soak your nails in warm water, and slowly push yours back, or even go to a salon.
How ever you do it, maintaining nice cuticles will help your manicure and help it look that much better each time.
Now some back next week for another Mani Monday (actually ON Monday next time! Lol)
