I was lucky enough to get an afternoon to myself this weekend, and opted for some mani-pedi action. True to form, my fingertips were chipped by the next day. Taking advantage of the plethora of unique colors on the wall seemed like a good idea at the time, but here I am without a matching color for touch-ups.
Solution:
Touch-up with a contrasting color! I call this tequila sunrise. Don’t worry about French tips or anything fancy; just be consistent with how deep you go. I used a couple of coats of Sally Hansen topcoat to seal and smooth it out.
What are some nail tips (pun intended) you’d like to share?
I B.Y.O., bring my own color, so that I can touch up later. Sometimes a do-over is necessary on one nail. Rubber gloves on to remove the mess, then re-paint the bad guy. A manicure can last 2-3 weeks. Nice savings. Tip included.
