I'm a nail tech and I'll let you in on a little secret. Prior to polishing your nails, clean your nails with alcohol. This cleanses the nails of any oils that were left from soaps or nail polish removers. Use a towel or something that is lint free. Use Stickey base coat by Creative nail. Apply two coats of nail polish and a good top coat such as Seche Vite or Poshe. Apply a top coat every other day. You should get a good week or even more from your manicure. Also remember to use gloves when doing the dishes or when using household chemicals. Investing in a good base and top coat is your best defense against chipping.

I use a product called Instant Dry Top Coat from Sally Hansen, it always does the trick for me, my nail polish lasts a lot more with it and stays chip-free.
Sorry, no intention of sounding like a commercial, this was a problem for me and since I found that product I don't have the problem anymore :-)

The best you can do is use a nail polish base and a top coat, they are bound to chip unless you have someone with you at all times to do everything for you.

Use a pre coat and a after coat of clear nail polish. Also, you should dry your nails with cool air..never hot.

well, it all starts with what nail polish you buy. make sure it has one of those metal balls in it and shake it before you use it. use and under and over coat with clear nail polish. also, after you take a shower, DONT touch your nails!! all the humidity from the shower can make ur nailpolish come off really easily. after you dry off and get dressed and stuff, put ur nails under a cool fan. and don't pick at ur nailpolish or bite ur nails!!!
bon chance!!!

the actual question right here is why does all human beings stereotype each and everything now a days? positioned on what you decide on! black nail polish is nice. and it doesnt count number what else ur donning with it its called individualism. some human beings would desire to attempt it out sometime
