Now that you have the perfect colour ensure it stays on longer. Summer can take a toll on nails and feet from the sand, to the sunscreen, to the drying sun. Melissa Forrest from Tips Nail Bar shares her tips on keeping manicure and pedicure fresh and lasting long:

Wash hands thoroughly after applying sunscreen. Sunscreen has an ingredient that causes discoloration generally, yellowing. If you apply a top coat. It will seal the colour so that it doesn't penetrate through.

Using a high shine buffer can rejuvenate a tired looking manicure. Even buffing the polish works superb!

Keep your cuticles moisturized at all times. Even well polished nails can look unkempt if the skin around them looks dry.
