:1. Cuticle Pusher

2. Cuticle Remover

3. Four Step Buffing tool

4. Hand Nail clipper (commonly called nail cutter)

5. Metal nail filer

6. Scrubbing brush.

STEP 2:



Remove any previous nail polish from your nails if any. Don't rub your nail too much with nail polish remover it damages and dries nail.

STEP 3:


Cut your nails if you think they have an extra length with nail clipper( nail cutter). be careful while cutting your nails to not to damage its shape if you want it afterwards. 

STEP 4:


Shape your nails in your desired shape with metal nail filer . Remember always file your nails in one direction . and never file your nails after soaking your hands in warm water and even after taking bath because it soften your nails and filing may results in breakage.

STEP 5:


Soak your hands in warm water and add little bit of moisturising cream in it .i don't prefer adding soap or hand wash as it dries my hands and cuticles. soak it for 5 to 8 min. Take your hands out and clean it with towel.

STEP 6:




Push your cuticles with cuticle pusher to loosen them.( cuticles are dead skin around your nails ) 

STEP 7:




Carefully remove your Cuticles with cuticles remover 
Make sure that your cuticles are soft enough to be pushed or removed . if yes then follow this step otherwise repeat step 5 before step 6 and 7...

STEP 8:

Well this is my Favourite part. using 4 steps buffer on your nails. start with .
  • begin to buff your nails with a gentle, side-to-side motion. 
  • Move to the next roughest setting, and repeat with gentle side to side motion, again working to smooth out the nail.
  • Repeat with the third side of the buffer . named as BUFF,Do not over do it.
  • With the last (smoothest) part of the buffer, this is where you really get to work, polishing your nails until they look like shiny enough as u have just applied a clear coat on your nail
These steps are suppose to be done on the surface of the nails. I sometimes only wash my hands and do this buffing part . it individually works good too.

STEP 9:


apply soap on your hand and scrub it on your whole hands with scrubbing brush softly then dry it with towel

STEP 10:


Apply Any Moisturising cream or hand lotion on your hands . Apply nail colour of your choice if you want to. 

And in this way you can easily have beautiful and healthy looking hands :)
