It’s Friday night. You have already made your favorite hot tea or you have served your favorite wine. Netflix is ready to play the next episode of your favorite series and you are ready to paint your nails in a new shade. Everything in this scenario is relaxing… until you finish applying the top coat and realize that your nails are covered by tiny air bubbles.
As destructive as this epilogue may seem to your relaxing night, there is a solution. In fact, you can fix the bubbles from the nail polish in 3 simple steps.
What causes blisters on the nails?
First it is important to understand why these bubbles are created. The reason is that air is trapped between the layers of varnish. Thus, they make their appearance during drying.
How to avoid them:
Step 1: I start with a clean base
Use a little acetone and thoroughly clean your nails. Do it even on unpainted nails. After cleaning, try not to touch your hair or face. The reason is that they can transfer oils back to your nails through touch.
Step 2: Paint in thin layers
This is important because thick coats of varnish need more time to dry. Which brings us to the next tip ..
Step 3: Be patient
Make sure the first coat of varnish is completely dry before adding the second. About 3-5 minutes between coats is the ideal margin. If possible, avoid the third layer, because then things tend to become uneven. Once you are sure that the last layer has dried, finish with a final layer. And it’s time to admire your work!
Extra tip:
Avoid the temptation to blow your nails to dry faster. The reason is that air can, in fact, cause bubbles. Just try to stay still and let time do its job.
