Take care of your nails

Your nail polish will apply better and last longer when your nails are already in good shape. You should also make sure to clean, buff and file your nails right before you apply your nail polish.
Get new nail polish
Nail polish, unfortunately, doesn't last forever. If you have a nail polish collection full of colors you've had for years, it's time for an update. If you have had your polishes for more than a year, check them out. If they've lost their smooth texture or are drying out, it's time to toss them. Don't worry, though. That means that you have an excuse to purchase and wear more colors!
Use the right amount of product
Leaving too much polish on your brush can be a chunky mess. On the flip side, using too little polish can leave your nails looking patchy or full of streaks. You can fix this by making sure you apply the correct amount of product. Start by getting a good amount of polish on your brush. Then you can smear the extra off on the inside of the bottle or tap the handle to remove excess product.
Learn different techniques
