Nail tips

 Nail tips are used to extend the existing nail length and to produce a desired shape or just want a longer nail to decorate on top of. They are available in many styles to accommodate most nail shapes and to suit particular client preferences. You will find that some clients like a french white tip to produce a french manicure look whilst others prefer a more Natural look.

  Pre-designed tips are extremely popular but great care needs to be taken when you are shaping them. To apply properly you should use adhesive before overlaying the tips with a nail system. Pre designed tips will save you time and will also save you money too so they are definitely worth having in stock.

  To apply  nail tips, first apply a very small bead of nail glue into the tip's well ensuring that it spreads to the edges of the well. Then place the tip onto the free edge quickly and smoothly to avoid air bubbles being visible and allow ten minutes for tips to bond. Cut the tips using Nail Tip Cutter to required length and file to desired shape and length.

Nail tips advantages:

• Safe to use
• Apply nail tips in seconds anywhere you go
• Save time (no need for lenghthy appointments at a nail salon)
• The most affordable manicure and pedicure ever
• Easily replace damaged nail tips
• Nail tips are easy to apply, easy to remove!
• Lasts weeks on toenails and up to 48 hours on fingernails

Christmas nail art designs

Christmas nail art can be really easy, or really elaborate, and it’s a great way to get into the festive spirit. I’m posting a small collection of some Christmas nail designs from all over the world to have as many ideas for your nails.

Handpainted nail

Hand painted nail art involves painting on the nails with creative designs. Angular brushes are used to paint fine dots. Fine sharp lines are drawn in geometric patterns on the painted nails. Use a toothpick to make stripes or patterns. There is a wide range of stencil designs that aid in nail art practice. Use colored gems and silver or gold leaf to best advantage. For a grunge look, you can pierce studs and pins. Delicate strokes can give your nails graphic designs and decorative patterns.
