Plain nails may look boring but when you add shine and a soft texture, they can be everything. Less is definitely more. Before I went into hospital for my operation I thought I deserved a little pampering manicure so I decided to try out one of my Christmas presents.
Micro Nail is a held hand nail buffer. Perfect for a quick and easy manicure.
To create a super shiny look I began by using my cuticle tools to give my nails a clean surface and fresh look and then took to using my Buffer.
As a guidance, the instructions say to only buff each nail at 2 seconds per nail. Don't worry if you exceed this time limit, as long as you don't press down really hard and use it for longer than 15/20 seconds, you won't really do any damage to your nail.
Once buffed you begin to see the effects with a slight dusting of white around your nails, this is only dust from your nails. You can easily wipe with an oil free cotton pad or go straight ahead with the next product.
To finish off my nails I used the No.7 2 in 1 Base Coat. If I'm entirely honest, I've had this product a fair while and most of the writing on the bottle has rubbed off and I've forgotten what it actually is. Though I presume with the yellow tint in the liquid, it must be a strengthener for the nails.
Give a good coating, 1 maybe 2 depending on your preference and super shiny nails are yours.
This is a good way to begin any manicure whether you plan staying plain with no other nail paint or using it as a way to prime and protect before nail art and polish.
I would highly recommend using a hand held buffer to help polish and shine your natural nails. Micro Nails comes from the same product company as the Micro Pedi which is used to remove dead, rough skin from the soles of your feet. So definitely a worthy product, however this is designed for nails.
Have you ever tried any Micro products? How do you prepare and protect your nails?
