Acrylic is a fantastic ally for those who enjoy long, painted nails. It creates dreamy nails when combined with a glittery finish and a clear base, just like Cinderella’s slippers.
This is how the new clear nail trend for this season came about. To achieve that look, simply sculpt an acrylic gel onto your nails and seal it with a translucent litmus powder, small transparent sheets, or even stones. Finally, you will have hypnotizing glass nails with a unique and very original effect.
You can also use rhinestones or gems to create different styles of clear Cinderella nails. However, why spend so much time creating breathtaking nail art if you do not know how to maintain it?
Hence, in today’s article, we will include some additional steps to keep your dazzling, clear Cinderella nails in top condition.

What Should You Pay Attention To After A Manicure?
Wear Gloves When Doing Housework.
While not necessary, a little extra care can go a long way in keeping your manicure looking fresh for longer. One easy habit is to wear gloves during hands-on tasks like gardening, dishwashing, or cleaning.
These activities often expose your nails to water, detergents, and rough surfaces that can cause polish to chip or dull more quickly.

By slipping on a pair of protective gloves, you create a barrier that shields both your nails and your skin. This not only preserves your manicure but also helps keep your hands soft and healthy.
Think of it as a small investment of effort that pays off by extending the life of your nail design.

Avoid Using Products Containing Solvents.
One of the sneakiest threats to your manicure comes from solvents, liquids that have the natural ability to dissolve other substances. While this property is useful in many products, it can be damaging to nail polish.
If your nails are exposed to solvents, the ingredients can start breaking down your manicure, causing it to chip, dull, or even peel away entirely.

You might not even realize how often you come into contact with solvents. They can be found in everyday products like cosmetics, tanning sprays, and even insect repellents.
A quick spritz or accidental spill may be all it takes to ruin the flawless finish of your nails.

Use Tools When You Can
We’ve all been tempted to use our nails for quick fixes: prying open a lid, scratching off a sticker, or even tightening a loose clasp. While it may seem convenient in the moment, treating your nails like tools can cause serious damage.
Every time you put pressure on them this way, you increase the risk of snagging, chipping, or even painful breakage.

Not only does this ruin the look of your manicure, but it can also injure your nail bed, leaving your hands sore and vulnerable to further damage.
No one wants to deal with a broken nail right after getting them done.

Instead, keep actual tools within reach for these small tasks: use a spoon or butter knife to lift a stubborn lid, grab a coin to scrape a surface, or invest in a small keychain multi-tool for quick fixes.
These alternatives will get the job done safely without putting your nails at risk.

Do Not Use Too Much Antibacterial Gel
While antibacterial gels are great for keeping germs at bay, they can be harsh on your manicure. Most of these products use alcohol as the main ingredient, which is notorious for stripping away natural moisture from both skin and nails.
Frequent use may leave your cuticles feeling rough and dry, which not only looks less polished but can also make your manicure more prone to chips and peeling.

Excessive handwashing has a similar effect. Constant contact with soap and water can parch the skin, leaving it tight and dehydrated.
Over time, it also wears down the glossy top coat of your polish, causing it to appear dull and lackluster.

If you want to keep your manicure looking fresh, try balancing cleanliness with care. Use a gentle, nourishing hand cream or cuticle oil after applying sanitizer or washing your hands.
This will restore moisture and protect your nails, keeping both your polish and your skin healthy.
Remember, clean hands are important, but hydrated hands are what keep your manicure beautiful.
