Tips & Tricks for Nail Polish




It seems we spend so much money trying to find a nail polish that lasts. However, it is easy and affordable to have beautiful looking hands and nails, which makes a rich and glamorous statement about who you are and how you care for yourself.There are some tricks that can help you polish your nail as well as keep your nail perfect.

Keep nails short

Long nails are more prone to chipping and breaking than short, professional-length ones. Aim for nails no more than a quarter inch past your fingertips.

Groom cuticles

When polish is applied to overgrown cuticles, it peels off easily. Keep cuticles in check by applying a drop of oil to them and gently pushing them back with a wooden tool. (Don't cut cuticles, which can cause them to grow back even thicker.


Clean nails

Apply polish to nails that have been cleaned with a cotton swab dipped in nail-polish remover. Any oil or lotion left on the nail bed will prevent polish from bonding to the nail and cause peeling in a day or two.

Pottery World

 As for the types of wares, pottery comprises true distinctive types of wears. The first type, earthenware, has been made following virtually the same techniques since ancient time; only in the modern era has mass production brought changes in materials and methods. The craftsman in this creative work, whether the potter with his simple articles of unpolished earthenware in natural colours of terracotta, or the more skilled artisan with his glazed ceramics with intricate motifs, has played a vital role in every day life in the sub-continent including Bangladesh. Bangladeshi potter has always laid stress on the basic form and texture of his articles. Harmonious colour blending, the perfect all-over effect of design with shade and tone, mark his unity of purpose. The history of Bangladesh pottery art is also very old, as old as the Mohenjodaro and Harappa civilization. Beside our home decoration we should preserve this trend.
