How do you keep your nails looking good after a manicure?

Question

I put on top coat but my nails never seem to last more than 3 days.

Answer 1

Put top coat on every day including under the tip of your nail as that will keep it from chipping and also keep the shine.

Answer 2

When you have your nails professionally treated, you should always ask the person who did them the best way to keep them nice.  You can continue to add top coat, but you should just be careful how you treat your nails.  Care includes how often you have to put them in water and keeping them moisturized so they won't break, careful of chemicals and overuse, such as typing, texting, and other chores that might include heavy use of your nails.  Try to use the tips of your fingers - not your nails.  Use pencil tips (eraser side) when you want to make calls, etc.

Stop "fantasizing" about Dale Jr.

Answer 4

Try a better polish- OPI is excellent! It lasts a long time- 7 to 10 days - it costs a little bit more, but it is worth it and they have awesome colors!

Answer 5

Apply a clear coat once a day.  

Answer 6

Get a french manicure like I do. My nails last a minimum of 1 week and can go up to two weeks.

When the nail color does start to come off your nails still look natural.
