Common Acrylic Nail Mistakes to Avoid
Mistake 1: Over-Filing
Over-filing your nails can weaken them and make them more prone to breakage. When filing your nails, be sure to only file the tips, and avoid filing too deeply into the sides or cuticles.
Mistake 2: Using the Wrong Brush
Using the wrong brush can make it difficult to apply acrylic nails smoothly and evenly. For best results, use a brush that is specifically designed for acrylic nail application.
Mistake 3: Not Mixing the Powder and Liquid Properly
If the powder and liquid are not mixed properly, the acrylic nails will not set correctly. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully for mixing the powder and liquid.
Mistake 4: Applying the Acrylic Nails Too Thickly
Applying the acrylic nails too thickly can make them look unnatural and bulky. When applying the acrylic nails, be sure to apply them in thin, even layers.
Mistake 5: Not Allowing the Acrylic Nails to Dry Completely
If the acrylic nails are not allowed to dry completely, they can become soft and weak. Be sure to allow the acrylic nails to dry completely before using your hands or applying any polish.
