How to Elevate Your Old Manicure to Look New Without Removing or Repainting Your Nails

When it comes to having your nails done, if you don’t do it at home, it can pretty pricey. And if you’re anything like me, your mood changes often and with that so does your nail color.

For me, the longest I’ve ever enjoyed a nail color is about two weeks. But I certainly don’t have the money to get my nails done twice a month. So I like to do them at home.

This is what my manicure looked like after getting it done professionally:

And while I have shown you a lot of my favorite nail products over the last several months, there is a new one that I’m currently obsessed with. It’s by Sally Hansen.

So, like I’ve said, getting my nails done is something I enjoy but don’t do very often! However, when I do get them done, I appreciate the ability to build on them when I get bored!

And thanks to Sally Hansen and Olive & June I can do just that! Last week, I got my nails done professionally with gel polish.

This is what they look like a week later, after freshening it up!

As a result, the color I choose will stay on for weeks, but because I get bored, I am now using the color I choose as a base. I then use Olive & June nail stickers and Sally Hansen’s Matte Top Coat to elevate my manicure to something new!

Another way to elevate a manicure is with Olive & June’s nail art stickers! They have so many different designs! They are just so so good!

The trick to making these stickers last is that they should only go on top of fully dried polish! And the topcoat should go on after you fully secured the sticker to the dried nail!

So there you have it! This is how I elevate my manicure without having to remove and repaint my nails after I’ve become bored with it! Are you ready to give it a try?
