A perfect manicure is an essential part of a well-groomed appearance, especially when traveling, where hands are often on display when paying, taking photos, or simply gesturing. However, traveling can be challenging for your nails. Long flights, frequent hand washing, and various climate conditions can affect the durability of your manicure. At MONLIS Studio, we want to provide you with helpful tips on how to keep your manicure flawless while traveling.
Preparation is Key
Before embarking on your journey, proper preparation is essential to keep your nails in the best condition:
Professional Manicure: Get a professional manicure at MONLIS Studio shortly before your trip. Our experts will ensure your nails are perfectly prepared.
Nail Strengthening: Use nail hardeners and care products to strengthen your nails and prevent breakage.
Short Nails: Shorter nails are less prone to breaking and chipping. Consider having your nails trimmed before your trip.
Choosing the Right Products
Choosing the right products can be crucial for the durability of your manicure:
Gel Polish or Shellac: These long-lasting polishes are more resistant to chipping and often last longer than traditional nail polish.
Top Coat: A good top coat protects the polish and extends the durability of your manicure.
Nail Oil: Keep your nails and cuticles supple and hydrated with a good nail oil to prevent cracks.
Care Routine on the Go
Proper care of your nails is important even while traveling:
Moisturize: Carry a small bottle of nail oil or a rich hand cream to regularly moisturize your nails and hands.
Gloves: Wear gloves when using cleaning agents or staying in cold climates to protect your nails.
Gentle Handling: Avoid using your nails as tools to prevent damage.
Emergency Kit for On the Go
A small emergency kit can help you quickly fix minor mishaps:
Nail File: A mini nail file helps repair broken or split nails quickly.
Spare Polish: Carry the nail polish you are currently wearing in travel size to touch up small chips.
Nail Glue: For larger damages, nail glue can temporarily fix the nail.
Proper Behavior on the Plane
Air travel can be particularly stressful for your nails. Here are some tips to protect your manicure during the flight:
Moisturizing: The dry air in the airplane can dry out your nails. Regularly use nail oil or hand cream.
Stay Hydrated: Keep your body hydrated from the inside by drinking plenty of water.
Hand Hygiene: Wash your hands regularly, but avoid hot water and use mild soap.
After the Trip: Refreshing Your Manicure
After your return, you should bring your nails back to top condition:
Care: Give your nails intensive care with oil and moisturizers.
Refresh: Have your manicure refreshed at MONLIS Studio to repair any damage and bring your nails back to their shine.
