Chanel La Base is a popular makeup product that acts as a primer for your nails. It helps to smooth out the surface of your nails, making it easier for nail polish to adhere and last longer. In this tutorial, we will show you how to use Chanel La Base effectively.
Gather Your Supplies
Before we get started, let’s make sure you have all the necessary supplies. You will need:
- Chanel La Base
- Nail polish of your choice
- Cotton balls or pads
- Nail polish remover (optional)
Clean Your Nails
The first step in using Chanel La Base is to make sure your nails are clean and free of any old nail polish or debris. If you have old nail polish on your nails, use a cotton ball or pad soaked in nail polish remover to remove it.
Trim and File Your Nails
Next, trim and file your nails to the desired shape. Use a nail file to smooth out any rough edges.
Apply Chanel La Base
Now it’s time to apply Chanel La Base. Start by applying a thin layer of the primer onto each nail. Make sure you cover the entire surface of each nail, including the tips.
Tip: Be careful not to apply too much primer as this can cause your nail polish to chip or peel off.
Allow Time for Drying
Once you’ve applied Chanel La Base, allow it to dry completely before applying any nail polish on top of it. This should take about 5-10 minutes depending on how thickly you applied the primer.
Apply Nail Polish
Once the primer has dried completely, it’s time to apply your nail polish. Choose the color of your choice and apply it in thin, even coats. Allow each coat to dry before applying the next one.
Tip: To prevent smudging, try not to touch or bump your nails against anything while the polish is drying.
Apply a Top Coat
After you’ve applied your final coat of nail polish, allow it to dry completely before applying a top coat. This will help to seal in the color and make it last longer.
Clean Up Any Mistakes
If you accidentally get any nail polish on your skin, use a cotton swab dipped in nail polish remover to clean it up. You can also use a small brush dipped in acetone to clean up any mistakes around the edges of your nails.
Enjoy Your Manicure!
Congratulations! You’ve successfully used Chanel La Base and created a beautiful manicure that will last for days. Remember to take care of your nails by moisturizing them regularly and avoiding harsh chemicals that can damage them.
