Who wouldn’t like to try all these cool nail art trends at home, which are beautiful, super creative and frightening? If you’re having trouble in getting pro nail salon finish. There are some reasons it’d not look nearly as good as you wish it to.

Scruffy cuticles

It’s very usual to end up with messy cuticles while applying nail paint. But not cleaning up the cuticles make even a perfect manicure, look so bad. So to get rid of scruffy and messy cuticles, take eyebrow brush, dip it into the nail polish remover and then cautiously remove any extra nail polish you have on your cuticles.

Not using a decent topcoat

A glossy topcoat always helps in making your manicure look perfect up to the mark of salon quality. Not only has this but it also help your nail polish to stay in good condition for long time. Chipped polish is a very rarely preferred look and usually looks good when done intentionally. 

 Not using simple techniques

With regards to nail art, using simple techniques and utilizing tools like bobby pins would be a lot more helpful if you are just a beginner. You can make a design by adding few dots of different colors with the help of bobby pins or simply by using any small embellishment or gem of your own choice.

Not using nail colors that looks good on your skin tone

If you are a beginner and new to nail art and not a regular nail polish person. You can go for toned down colors initially. Colors like neutrals and pale pink are staple, and errors are not really visible.

Nail art that doesn’t coordinate the nail shape

Try to look up for a similar nail shape as yours, and figure out what kind of nail art designs look good on your nail shape. Stiletto nails have a lot greater surface to work on in comparison to square nails, so you’ll likely finish up with an altogether different outcome.

When trying some difficult techniques

Trying difficult techniques of nail art also ends up in messed up nail art attempts, especially when you are not really an experienced person. Even very experienced and professional people usually have hard time trying difficult techniques like water marbling. Attempt making designs that fit to your experience level for the prettiest result like try French manicure and simple designs.

Old nail paint

Likewise, every other beauty product has an expiration date, nail polishes also do have an expiration date. Old nail polish can affect the result of your manicure. In case you are uncertain if the nail polish is expired or not, place it in a fridge before using it, which will help thin it out. If the nail paint is still gloomy, it’s a great opportunity to go separate ways.

Dry Cuticles

In case you’re attempting to get that Instagram nail shot and they simply don’t look as on point as they should, it may be because of dry cuticles. Simply use a hand cream and a cuticle oil every night before bed to keep them moisturized. Also apply some before taking your nail shots.

Not using a base coat

In case you think base coats are not really worthy applying, reconsider. It guarantees your nails won’t stain and makes your nail art chip free.
