" I’m Lillian with expertvillage.com and as you can see, my home manicure is completely done. I think they look pretty professional for doing them myself. Decals are in place and they’re completely dry now. I would say that you would have to do this manicure anywhere from a week to 2 weeks depending on how or what type of job you put your hands in water. One good point to remember is if you want your nail manicure to last even up to 2 weeks, a good thing to do is to reapply the top coat after the end of one week. Especially like I said before, the no chip top coat, you could get some of this at your local beauty supply store or convenient store. Make sure it’s marked no chip. That helps with the nail polish staying set on your nails without chipping at least a week and a half to 2 weeks. So other than that I think we’ve completed our segment with manicures and thank you very much."
