A fresh manicure is the ultimate confidence boost — until the first chip appears. We’ve all been there: you leave the salon with perfect nails, only for them to start flaking days later. The good news? With a few clever tricks, your mani can stay Instagram-ready for weeks.
1. Nail prep is everything.
Long-lasting polish starts before colour even hits the nail. We gently buff, dehydrate, and push back your cuticles to make sure polish bonds smoothly. Skipping prep is like building a house without a foundation — chips are inevitable.
2. Choose the right formula.
Gel or builder polish is your best friend for durability. They form a stronger bond, so they’re less likely to lift or chip, especially in Bali’s humid weather.
3. Seal those edges.
We always “cap” your nail tips when applying polish. This tiny step locks the colour in and prevents peeling from the free edge.
4. Treat your nails like jewels, not tools.
Use gloves for chores, avoid picking at things, and moisturise your cuticles every day. Your nails will thank you.
5. Book regular upkeep.
Even the best manicures need love. A quick touch-up or refill every 2–3 weeks keeps them looking fresh.
With the right aftercare and a little MYNX magic, you’ll be flaunting flawless nails for far longer than a few days.
