Lifehack: this is how you get your nails at home just as beautiful as in the salon

They say as long as your hair looks good, but what about your nails? I often have days when my hair is just stuck in a twisted bun and I don't necessarily feel unkempt. But as soon as my nails are broken and that beautiful layer of gel polish has chipped away, I prefer to hide them in my pockets all day. The only reason I sometimes walked around with neglected nails is simply put: no time. Making an appointment at a salon doesn't always fit well; a busy schedule and/or not being able to plan at the time I want, in the evening for example. You know how it is, but from now on that's a thing of the past, because with NEONAIL I have my own salon at home: hallelujah. An appointment with yourself, in your own time, in your own space, whenever you want. The NEONAIL set is affordable, works perfectly, is too much fun, but is also super easy to do. It works with a three-step system consisting of a base coat, the gel polish color, and a top coat. The starter kit also includes a professional LED lamp that you need to dry those different layers in no time, a nail cleaner, acetone, and cotton pads to clean your nails before you start, and a wooden stick to push back your cuticles so they don't get in the way while painting. Basically everything you need.
When it comes to color choice, I'm really a typical Libra: always doubting. I always feel so uncomfortable in a salon where I'm staring at the huge palette of shades for minutes while everyone is waiting for me. Do you also always have that color choice stress? Let me give you a hand and go for summer orange. I have something with that color, even though you literally don't see it anywhere in my wardrobe, makeup, or interior, but it's now totally the trend and also perfect for King's Day. Your hands get tanner from it and it suddenly makes a boring outfit a lot cheerier; actually only plus points. NEONAIL ‘Energy Burst’ is exactly the shade of orange I want. Check the photo, and you'll immediately understand what I mean. By the way, the colors should last at least 21 days, but I wanted to see that first before I believed it. And to be honest: after three weeks, it still looks neat, without peeling or chipping. Which is really exceptional with my nails, because they are quite sensitive to that. Of course, after so many days, there was some regrowth, but I can't stop my nails from growing, can I? They also don't become matte after a few days, not even if you go swimming in chlorinated water like I do these days during my pregnancy. Always handy to know, right?

Is orange not really your color? No worries, there is no shortage of colors. You can choose from more than 300 other shades to make it easy for yourself. There is literally something for everyone. Prefer a nude shade? No problem: you have a choice of more than thirteen shades. Is red totally your thing? A full palette, with the bestseller being ‘Sexy Red’. The name alone sounds too tempting, right? At Douglas you can find all shades and of course also the starter set you need.
Nowadays, a simple color is no longer enough, because TikTok is full of nail art. Did I still have to go to the salon for that? Fortunately not, because at NEONAIL they have different effects like 3D Holo Effect, Smokey, Chrome, or Electric. You really can't get enough if you love experimenting. These fine pigments are super easy to apply and you immediately steal the show with your nails.
