As much as we love the summer, it really does play havoc on our
fingernails - more importantly, our
manicures! The frequent exposure to water, sun and sand causes
nail polish to chip more than usual. Luckily there is a little tip to help prevent the dreaded chip...
Apply an extra layer of
top coat to painted nails every other day to
strengthen the nails and protect nail polish from
chips and
scratches. It really is that simple. As for which top coat to use, I recommend Seche Vite 14ml (£8.76
feelunique.com / $9.49
CVS). Widely acknowledged as the world's finest top coat, Seche Vite is a
fast drying top coat that leaves nails silky,
stronger and
resistant to chipping and
peeling.
