Tips for Fabulous Looking Nails
It's finally time for your nails to take the spotlight, so try your best to get your nails looking fabulous using the following tips. Sometimes small details can make a huge difference, so don't neglect your nails and make them shine to complete your stylish appearance!
The summer season is making everything bloom, so glam-up your look by paying attention to even the smallest details as it's the small details that can really make a difference. Your nails are the details that need as much attention as you can offer them as they are always in the center of attention. There is a belief that there are a lot of things to tell about a person just by looking at their nails, so try to make a great first impression by maintaining your hands and nails in a fab condition. There are a variety of tips for fabulous looking nails to take into account, so incorporate these tips into your beauty routine as often as possible.
Women who care about their physical appearance spend tens of dollars at expensive nail salons to maintain their nails looking fabulous, but with these tips you'll be able to save some money and benefit from equal fab results:
Speed up nail growth by ensuring you eat right and get all the nutrients your body needs in addition to massaging a cuticle oil on your nails on a daily basis. Cuticle oil contains ingredients which nourish the nail bed and will speed-up nail growth.
Chipped nail polish looks very unappealing, so if you see a little chip, try to fix it by applying a little bit of nail polish (same hue) on the chipped area. If you've got a bigger chipped surface, redo the entire nail.
Apply your nail polish only after you've applied a base coat to avoid pigment transfer from your nail polish to your nail. Nail polish pigments can color your nail, making them turn yellowish, and that is very unappealing.
If you've just applied your nail polish, but don't have too much time to wait until it dries, hold the nails under cold water for about 10 minutes. The cold water will help speed-up the drying process and cause the nail polish to harden faster.
If your nails are weak, make sure you eat enough protein and apply a nail strengthening treatment. These nail straighteners contain vitamin B and can really make a difference for your nails.
If you have fragile nails, apply a nail hardener every day for about a week and then remove it using an acetone-free nail polish remover. Allow your nails to breath for a few days and then repeat. It's best to file your nails in a squared shape rather than round if your nails are sharp as this will help make them less prone to breakage.
Allow your nails to breath a few days a month as applying nail polish every day on your nails can make your nails loose their shine and become yellowish.
Your nail polish usually chips from the tip of the nail up towards the nail bed. Prolong the life of your fab manicure by applying the nail polish in thinner layers and over the edges of the nail, towards the inside. This way the nail polish will not chip so easily, enabling your nails to look fabulous for longer.

Whimsical Nail Designs
With so many nail designs available nowadays, it would be a real shame to stick to classic, monochrome manicures. Put your imagination to work just a little and you'll be surprised by how many options you can come up with. If you are in the mood for something less ordinary, yet you need a little inspiration to get started, some of the following nail designs might be a good place to kickoff.
Nowadays nail designs are a true form of self-expression. Fulfilling the need for variety and interest, while being an easily reversible style option that can compliment women of all ages, nail art has quickly earned an important place in the beauty routines of modern women. Refined, classy and elegant or funky, colorful and eye-popping, nail designs can match any mood or occasion, as long as they are chosen properly.
Going beyond the usual patterns and style rules, while still maintaining the unity of the design, is perhaps the most obvious place to start when trying to create a whimsical design that will challenge your creativity. Be prepared to juggle with color and make sure to select a myriad of style elements based on a previously chosen theme. Abstract nail designs are perhaps the ones that offer the most freedom of choice as they allow a great variety of details to choose from and typically do not require a lot of artistic skills to be created.

Stripes, animal prints, checkered patterns, simple animal prints or even plain curved lines are some examples of the style elements that can be easily combined for a surprising effect. With the right color palette, an eye for detail and a lot of patience, anyone can get a unique looking nail design. Of course, in the case of complex nail designs with a lot of elements, we always have the option to cheat and go for a minx design. The only drawback of this strategy is that these tend to look less natural than those created through other techniques. Nonetheless, minx nail designs can be fun to experiment with.
Your personality and the occasion are two factors which always have a tremendous influence on the final choice. While a casual event might not pose too many restrictions when it comes to the designs chosen, a party nail design might require a more careful consideration.
Even though it might seem that strong, bold colors and a myriad of elements are mandatory for a funky design, it does not necessarily have to be so. There are a lot of options you can use to add a festive touch to your nails. Glitter, rhinestones or french manicures with a twist are just a few popular ideas you can use.

Even though some quirky nail designs can be easily created at home, for more complex nail designs, turning to the services of a professional manicurist might be recommended. Having a clear idea of what you want and being specific about it will help in either cases. Select the theme and the main color palette and you'll be one step closer to the desired look. Browse through the fabulous selection of nail designs available to find additional elements that match your vision.
