I dont like to spend a ton on money on nail polish. I've spent a good amount in the past on a single 

polish only to find that I feel like it fades at nearly the same rate as every other polish. 

So Ive come up with a quick fix for my "few" day old nails. 

I'd like to call it my cheap and easy mani. 

Because you know the day were you look down and realized that even though you took time

to put that extra effort and actually did a "top coat" your nails are still starting to peak through. 

So my solution: find a contrasting polish and do a little modified french manicure. 

You can buy the strips or use tape to create a clean line or you can do like I did above and 

begin applying the polish at the tip of your nail and fade it down. 

Doing this method is my favorite because it is so quick. 

And walla.. the result a revived manicure that will last quite a few days longer. 

Any tips for keeping your nails fresh?
