Rub a small amount of olive oil around your nails before you polish or begin an art design. It makes removing little "outside the line" mistakes much easier.
Hide a chip in your new manicure by putting a quick coat of a sparkle polish over it. The glittery polish is supposed to look sort of uneven, so it hides the chip and adds a bit of jazz until you have the time to re-do.
When adding decals to your polished manicure, be sure to seal with a clear top coat. It keeps the edges of the decal from peeling and gives a much more authentic painted-on look to the art!
Glitter polish can stick to your nails like crazy when your trying to remove it. Use a small pad of felt, rather than a cotton ball...it works like a gentle scrub pad!
Good idea with the felt to remove glitter.
