How to Apply Nail Polish – Colour and Care Combined
An even-looking manicure begins before the colour goes on. Well-shaped nails, a clean nail surface and thin coats make application easier. Discover how to paint your nails step by step and care for them afterwards.
Beautifully You.
The Essentials
A Beautiful Manicure Starts Before the Colour
Even the loveliest shade looks more polished when your nails are similarly shaped and their surfaces are clean. Apply the polish in thin coats, allowing each one enough time to dry.
Remember:Two thin coats of colour are better than one thick coat. This makes the polish easier to apply evenly.
Before You Paint
Three Steps for the Perfect Preparation
Remove Any Residue
Remove old nail polish completely. Your nails should be clean and dry before applying a new colour.
Be Gentle
Keep your cuticles supple and avoid cutting them roughly or pushing them back forcefully. Make sure there is no oily residue on the nail before painting.
Step by Step
How to Apply Nail Polish Evenly
Use only a little polish on the brush and allow enough drying time between coats.
Apply a Base Coat
If you use a suitable base coat, apply a thin layer and let it dry. Follow the instructions for the particular product.
Apply the First Coat of Colour
Place the brush just above the cuticle. Apply the colour down the centre of the nail, then along each side.
Build Up the Colour
Let the first coat dry thoroughly. If needed, apply a second thin coat until you achieve your preferred colour intensity.
Allow the Finish to Dry
If desired, apply a suitable top coat. Let your manicure dry completely before using your hands for more demanding tasks.
For Neat Edges:Leave a small gap around your cuticles. Carefully tidy any polish marks on the skin after application.

Things to Avoid
What Can Make an Even Manicure More Difficult
Too Much Polish at Once
A thick coat is harder to spread and takes longer to dry. Wipe excess polish from the brush against the rim of the bottle.
Applying Oil Just Before Polish
Nail oil is useful for aftercare. Before painting, however, the nail surface should be clean and free from oily residue.
Applying the Next Coat Too Soon
If the first coat is not dry enough, applying another layer may disturb it. Allow a little extra time between coats.
Colour and Care
Continue Caring for Your Hands and Cuticles
Nail polish and nail care serve different purposes. Complete your manicure with a suitable routine for your hands and cuticles.
Apply Nail Oil Where Needed
Once your polish is completely dry, apply nail oil around each nail and massage it in gently.
Remember Hand Care
Choose a hand care product that feels comfortable on your skin. Reapply it when needed, especially after washing your hands.
Remove Polish Gently
Remove your nail polish carefully before starting a new manicure. Afterwards, care for your nails and cuticles as needed.
