I've tried base coats, top coats, no coats. What works? I'm so sick of having to repaint my nails every 2 days! Is there some brand that works better than others?What is the best way to keep nail polish from chipping?
You can avoid chipping by making sure the nail is completely free of oils before applying your base coat. A top coat is also essential to give your manicure a longer life. Apply a second coat the next day, and then every second day after on your fingernails, and every week on your toenails.What is the best way to keep nail polish from chipping?
I have better luck with putting 2 coats of clear on the top the 1st day and then a new coat of clear everyday (you can only do this for so long tho) to chip it you have to chip thru the clear 1st. I always buff my natural nail before painting with anything with a VERY fine emory board 1st. Just run it across it a couple of times......NOT MUCH AT ALL. This ';roughs'; the nail up a bit and the base coat will stick better. It still looks and feels smooth.
Unfortunately if you have natural nails, polish just doesn't last long. Try not putting it on to thick and allow it to dry in between coats. You may also try getting them airbrushed, the airbrushing tends to last longer.
I've had very good luck with Seche Vite top coat - it should be available at a beauty supply near you. With my natural nails, it kept a fast dry polish on for almost a week, and a professional manicure stayed set for a whole week.
It's a bit pricy ($8-9), but I've found it well worth the money. :)
put a coat of clear polish on top
get a nail varnish that hardens the cover ...less likely to chip

How do you get nail polish out of carpet?
beige carpet four months old, tried nail polish remover but its just spreading it round more, the polish is black and purple.How do you get nail polish out of carpet?
I had this trouble ! Dont panic i found this helpful....by the way nail polish remover worked i used it sparinglyHow do you get nail polish out of carpet?
Remove as much of the nail polish as possible using a spoon or dull knife.
Apply a non-oily nail polish remover to a clean white cloth and gently rub (in only one direction at a time) or blot the spot. Continue until spot is removed. Do not allow nail polish remover to get to the latex backing. Go to the next step to remove nail polish remover.
Apply a small quantity of detergent solution to the spot. (To make the detergent solution mix 1/4 teaspoon of a hand dish washing detergent which does not contain lanolin or bleach with 1 quart of water; examples of safe detergents are Dawn庐 and Joy庐.) Use a blotting motion to work the detergent into the affected area. If spot is being removed continue applying detergent and blotting with a white paper towel until spot is removed.
Rinse with tap water using a spray bottle, blot to remove excess moisture.
Spray lightly with water, do not blot this time; apply pad of paper towels and brick and allow to dry.
If there is still some stain on the carpet and blotting is not removing it, then moisten the tufts in the stained area with 3% hydrogen peroxide. Let stand for on (1) hour. Blot and repeat until carpet is stain free. Light will cause peroxide to change back to water so no rinsing is necessary. Apply pad of paper towels and weight down with brick
I hear ya!My 2 yr old thought she needed to paint her toenails-she did manage to get SOME on her toes!!Persevere with the remover-i went through almost 3 bottles.Don't let the polish dry,it will be harder to remove.
Put nail polish remover on the stain then get a wet rag and rinse it out with hair shampoo on it then scrub at the stain with it. Then keep washing out the rag and doing it again also while at the hairshampoo scrubbing use a strong nail or scrubbing brush I did cleaning for 25 years wish I was there to help you.

Can you use human nail polish on horses?
I was planning to put a horse in a parade. And I looked on this website and the total was 43.80 dollars for two bottles of Horse polish. I thought that was a little pricey for one parade. My friends mother used human nail polish on her horse and I was wondering if it was ok to use human nail polish.Can you use human nail polish on horses?
Yes, I have done it with lime green on my horses hooves for a barrel race contest at our stable in the past (I suck at barrels, not for me lol). It was so cute with his lime green bell boots and splint boots.
It takes a lot longer though with that annoying little brush, and it took me quite a few bottles. But yes you can.Can you use human nail polish on horses?
yeah sure i think it would be fine. but i would only use small portions at a time to prevent overwhelming fumes. and idont think i would use remover... just let it wear off.
That is a terrible idea... use Twinkle Toes. Its made fore horses and it gets it done quicker
Sarah
I use to use White shoe polish covered with glue and Glitter. I also used a silver saddle and it made a very pleasing look to the judges of the Parade Class.
It will be expensive because of how many bottles you have to go through, and your horse has to stand really still because it takes awhile longer to dry, and it takes a long time to apply with that little brush.
It is okay, yes.
OH GOOD GRIEF NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO NOT DO THAT!!!!!!! IT IS INHUMANE!!!!!!!!!

How do you remove nail polish from the kitchen floor?
I've tried nail polish remover and alcohol but it wont come out!How do you remove nail polish from the kitchen floor?
Let me guess you let your little girl paint her nails. That has happened to me too. I let her go to town and then clean it right off with commet mixed with baking soda. If that doesn't work paint thinner is something that might, but be cautious. VERY HARMFUL to children and animals. Magic Erasers are something to try too.How do you remove nail polish from the kitchen floor?
Try paint-thinner.
TRY CLOROX AND LET IT SIT FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES
Or try acetone.
If you don't have vinyl floors you can use acetone, but if you do have vinyl flooring try scrubbing with a green scrub pad and lots of elbow grease. :)

How would lipstick or nail polish interact with my face?
Particularly on the cheeks and forehead region. I'd like to use it as a form of face paint. Would they clog up my pores, make it so my skin can't breathe, or what?How would lipstick or nail polish interact with my face?
Nail polish would be terrible for your face, and it is designed to coat the nails and thus would coat the skin and clog pores and there is a likelyhood that your skin would react to all the chemicals in nail polish as well. Lipstick would work fairly well, but I warn you that it can stain your skin. Personally I would say that you would be best off sticking to actual face paint.curly hair

How do I get nail polish out of my car upholstry?
Will nail polish remover work on fabric or will it bleach it? My daughter left my nail polish open and it spilled and then she tried to wipe it up so it kinda smeared??? What to do?How do I get nail polish out of my car upholstry?
Sometimes I'll look into certain stains and ways to remove them.
But this one....OUCH..... I don't know of anything that's going to
help this except replacement of the upholstry or a seatcover.
That stuff is ruthless....
Just my opinion here...
