How to get Chip Free Tips
“1. Remove polish completely, then use a cotton ball or paper towel saturated in rubbing alcohol to clean natural oils from the nails.
2. Apply base coat over the entire nail and under the tip. That way, the polish won’t chip as quickly.
3. Paint the color all the way to the cuticles. Its okay if you get polish on your skin - you can clean it up later. It’s less likely to lift and peel there.
4. Don’t rush the dry time. After applying a topcoat, let nails air dry for 30  to 45 minutes.  Use quick dry drops only after 15 minutes to avoid flaking at the cuticles.”
