1. Yellow Skin tones
If you have olive or yellow skin tones choose peach or clear polish to cover minor nail imperfections.
2. Nail Polish and Pink Skin Tones
If you have pink skin tones, choose pink or clear nail polish to cover minor nail imperfections.
3. History of Nail Polish Ingredients
During the Ming Dynasty, polish was made from a combination of beeswax, egg whites, gelatin, vegetable dies and Arabic gum. The polish we use today can give its thanks to the car industry. Today's polish is a refined version of car paint.
4. Who Invented Nail Polish
Nail Polish as we know it today was invented about 5000 years ago by the Chinese with the favored colors being red and black.
5. History of Nail Polish
The Egyptians apparently used to dip their fingers into orange henna.
6. Flaking Nail Polish
There is nothing more annoying than having to redo your nails because the polish on the tips has begun to flake off! Here is a trick that might save you the bother. Apply the polish in several THIN coats instead of
thick ones. It seems to make a difference!
7. Uses For Empty Nail Polish Bottles
Fill the clean bottle with vegetable oil and paint your nails and cuticles several times a day.
8. After You Finish
After you've finished your polish application, don't stop there. Now is the perfect time to give yourself a hand massage. Use a rich hand cream and slather it on using circular movements until it is absorbed. Don't forget that our hands are constantly exposed and need constant attention.
9. Shelf Life of Polishes
Polish has a shelf life of about two years especially if stored properly.
10. More Bubbles in Your Polish
More causes of bubbling include drafts, air conditioners, fans etc. While applying polish, find a room that has none of these bubble producers
