The step-by-step on how to achieve quick  lasting nails.

The products: Orly Bonder Base coat $10, Chanel Jade Rose Nail Polish $27 (alternative nude: OPI Samoan Sand $8), Butter London Hardwear Quick Top Coat $16 (similar shine: Wet’N’Wild Shine coat $1)

One can never go wrong with subtle color on the nail – easy to match with any outfit and perfect for a soft transition from Winter to Spring. Even in the most recent Chanel Spring 2013 Runway show nude nail polish made an appearance. Many models wore  a soft pinky beige polish that was very sleek, yet it compliment their intricate couture outfit at the same time. Therefore, you can make this look work for all your outfits of the week without the need to worry if it would match your nails. What make this even better is the way to get the manicure. By providing an excellent adhesive base coat, a Chanel nude polish, and a quick-drying top coat, you can make your whole week less stress free.

Start off with Orly Bonder Base Coat – I swear by this! It is the best canvas for your nails. Its adhesive properties allows the nail polish to bond to the nail much longer without chips or pealing (approx. 5 days lasting power). Second, apply two thin coat of Chanel Jade Rose (the one used in the Chanel runway is called Emprise). Chanel nail polishes are great because they are very easy to apply due to their not too thick and not too thin consistency. Great for polish newbies! Lastly, apply Butter London: Hardwear topcoat. I love the long handle brush which allows greater control and precision.

In all this manicure should take no longer than 10 minutes!
