If you are stuck for ideas or need some new inspiration when it comes to your manicure routine, I hope this post has shown you some fun and fresh new ideas! Have you tried any of these manicures??? If so, which one is your favorite?? Or which one are you wanting to try next??

A little tip for you: When it comes to polishes that don’t hold well on the nail beds or tend to chip quickly, I often use my Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Polish (in any color) on top of a good quality base coat; then add which ever polish on top. That way you have a great base with which the polish can adhere too and less chance of chipping!! With the Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure, the nail polish seems to last the longest on natural nails without chipping. That’s why its my FAVE nail polish~!!!

Till next time friends, you can always keep your manicures CREATIVE, FRESH, AFFORDABLE, and EDGY, as long as you keep them HOMEMADE~!!! Sending you all lotsa love, hugs and blessings~!!! xoxo
