If you think taking care of acrylic nails is hard, this post by Anila is for you. Thanks Anila!
Acrylic nails are the most beautiful artificial nails that were ever invented and have been in vogue since 1970 when they were first made. They can be a lifesaver for all those people who need long nails instantly. The amazing designs that acrylic nails come in will make everyone want to flaunt them. The only problem with them is that maintaining them for a long time at home can be a very difficult task. Here are some tips for acrylic nail care at home.
1. Do Not Apply Pressure
Handle the acrylic nails very delicately and do not apply pressure on them as they tend to break off easily especially when you have long nail extensions.
2. Apply Cuticle Oil
Apply cuticle oil every night before you sleep and generally after you wash your hands to keep them soft and moist.

Cleanse Twice Daily
Washing your face in the morning and at night removes dirt, oil, and impurities for a fresh complexion.
Exfoliate Regularly
Removing dead skin cells helps reveal smoother, brighter skin and enhances product absorption.

Toners balance your skin’s pH and prepare it for serums and moisturizers.
Apply Vitamin C Serum
A powerful antioxidant that brightens skin, evens tone, and fights free radicals.
Moisturize Every Day
Keeping skin hydrated helps prevent dryness, irritation, and premature aging.
Never Skip Sunscreen
SPF protects against UV damage, preventing dark spots, wrinkles, and skin cancer.
Use a Night Cream
Overnight repair creams nourish and rejuvenate your skin while you sleep.
Stay Hydrated
Drinking enough water keeps skin plump, clear, and healthy-looking.
Get Enough Sleep
Rest allows your skin to repair, reducing puffiness and dark circles.
When you are exposing your hands to harsh chemicals like detergents or any other substances, wear gloves so the harm caused to the acrylic nails due to these chemicals can be prevented.

7. Touch Them up Once Every 2 Weeks
If you are planning on keeping the acrylic nails for a long time, get them touched up once in 2 weeks as the gap between the nail and the acrylic nail can get bigger and the nails start wearing off with time.
Following these tips will ensure the safety of your acrylic nails. Also, remember to let your nails breathe once in at least 3-4 weeks by removing the acrylic nails. Do you have any tips you'd like to share? I'd love to hear!
