It seems there is an app for everything these days!

From managing your life to cooking your dinner and even helping you stay fit, you are sure to find something downloadable that is aimed at making your life a whole lot easier.

And it seems one particular beauty regime may now have it’s very own app too.

The latest app concept will mean you won’t have to remove your nail polish if you want to change your style – the Bloom your Nails app will do that for you. The concept allows nail patterns to change instantly via a tiny screen with a wireless connection on each nail. Sounds, eh, a little strange!

The concept was developed by Taiwanese student Gin Lee, who said: “‘Bloom your nails’ is a set of wearable devices. Users can replace the patterns and design via a mobile application. Users can upload their own designs and even sell them to other users.”

What’s next, a tiny screen over your face so you don’t have to put make-up on yourself anymore?

While it is not yet a reality, Gin’s idea has won an Intel contest for wearable computers – no, we never idea of this award either – so it may very well become the latest beauty must-have.

Painting your nails requires time and patience otherwise it just ends up all over your fingers. Lucky for you, we are going to share our top nail hacks for a perfect, long lasting polish.

Vaseline
If you are prone to a few polish mishaps, dab a little Vaseline around your nails to make cleaning up that bit easier.

Rub the bottle
Don’t shake your nail polish bottle. Instead, rub it between your hands before using it as this will avoid a build up of air bubbles.

Use layers of colour
Use a  white nail polish under your chosen top layer to really make the colour stand out or use two layers of the top coat – there’s no need to skimp on your polish.

Reinforce your tips
Use two layers of basecoat to make sure your polish doesn’t chip. paint the top half of your nail with the base colour and then cover the entire nail. The extra coat at the top will help prevent chips.

And remember, make sure you give your nails time to dry. A smudged nail will just be a waste of your time and efforts.
