00:03Hi, I'm Dawn Sterling, fashion editorial manicures to the stars. I'm going to show you how to
00:09make your manicure last for at least five days. So today I'm going to show you how to
00:17dehydrate your nail plate so that your manicure can last at least five days. Here's some of
00:22the products that I like to use. Cuticle oil, solar oil from C&D, Essie has a great nail
00:29cleanser. You're going to need 100% pure acetone or 90 proof rubbing alcohol, base coat and
00:37top coat. After the cuticle oil has been applied, spray the hand to remove the excess oil. Get
00:47your orange wood stick, apply the acetone. Carefully go around your cuticles, over the entire nail
00:55plate and underneath your nail bed. You apply one even layer of base coat. Make sure you
01:04get the corners. After your color is dried, you apply the top coat. Now when applying the
01:12top coat, an even layer of top coat and seal the free edge to make sure you lock the nail
01:20polish in between the base and the top. Pay close attention to how you prep your nails.
01:25That's how you can ensure that five day manicure.
