Warm lotion for a few seconds in a microwave-safe container and massage it into your foot and ankle. Apply cuticle cream

Use a towel to wipe off excess lotion and push back your cuticles with a wood stick or wet cloth
Wipe nails with polish remover to remove any oily remnants and prep nails for color
After drying nails completely, start with a base coat. Use three strokes: first up the middle, and then to each side to cover nail completely Repeat this method for all coats.
Add 2 thin coats of color, letting dry completely between. Finish with a top coat and go barefoot or wear open-toe shoes until they’ve completely hardened
