🐠My manicure has a tendency to flake – how can I make it last longer?Updated 6 months ago

Flaking polish is often caused by inadequate nail prep at the start of your manicure. It is essential to buff your nails to open the keratin scales, and to push back your cuticles.
How you apply your polish also has an important part to play: make sure you apply it in very thin coats and cap the nail edge after each coat. 
Avoid knocking your hands after your manicure and be careful with your nails when doing manual work. This will help your manicure last longer and keep your hands healthy. 
Also take care with water, which can soften your nails. Remember to wear gloves when you're doing housework to protect your hands from corrosive products.
