Tips for Building a Better At-Home Manicure

There’s nothing quite like the feeling of leaving the salon with fresh, shiny, beautiful nails. But what if you could recreate the salon-level magic from the comfort of your own home? With just a few simple swaps and strategic upgrades to your materials, you can refine your routine and give your nails the TLC they deserve. From tools that perfect every detail to formulas that do more than just add color, get glossier, healthier-looking nails, no appointment necessary.

Start With Cuticle Care

To create a beautiful manicure, you must start with a clean, smooth canvas. Overgrown cuticles can make even the most precise polish job look messy, so it is important to keep them healthy and neat. To remove uncomfortable excess, treat your nails to gentle exfoliation with Fresh Glow Cuticle Remover. This formula softens dead skin, allowing for effortless tidying. Follow up with our Glass Cuticle Pusher to gently push back the cuticles and clean up the nail plate with precision. These tools help you create a fresh foundation without damaging the delicate skin around your nails. 

Shape to Perfection

Say goodbye to flimsy emery boards and hello to a smoother finish. Our Glass Nail File helps shape your nails with precision, for perfect clean edges. It also seals the nail tips to prevent splitting, peeling, and breakage, leaving your nails stronger and smoother with every use. Gentle yet effective, it’s a must-have for even the most fragile nails. 

Smooth and Strengthen

Before applying polish, prep your nails with a multitasking base coat. Our Tinted Fortifying Ridge Filler smooths uneven texture, neutralizes discoloration, and strengthens brittle nails. Plus, it leaves behind a sheer, healthy-looking tint that looks beautiful on its own. For a more traditional, clear base with added benefits, try out our Nail Hardener & Base Coat. It’s a 2-in-1 strengthening formula that fortifies and primes to create the perfect canvas for color.

Choose Impactful Color

When it comes to nail polish, performance matters. Londontown lakurs are powered by advanced pigment technology for bold, rich, and long-lasting color. Each formula is breathable, 21+ free, and infused with conditioning botanicals to support nail health with every wear. The pro-contour brush makes painting easier than ever, giving you smooth, even coverage in fewer strokes.

Need inspiration? Try Invisible Crown for a clean-girl, “soap nail” finish, or TeaTime for a sheer, barely-there nude.

Seal it With Shine

No manicure is complete without a high-performance top coat. Beyond a glossy finish that lasts for days, top coats help lock in color, defend against chipping, and extend the life of your manicure. For maximum shine and staying power, reach for our High Gloss Top Coat. It delivers a long-lasting, gel-like finish without the need for a UV lamp. For busy days when you’re in a rush, Flash Dry Top Coat is your go-to for fast results and smooth, smudge-free shine in minutes. 

Your At-Home Spa Moment

The secret to next-level nails isn’t just practice, it’s having the right products that elevate every step of the process. And with Londontown, you don’t have to compromise. With the right products in your rotation, your at-home process will be a relaxing, feel-good ritual that creates beautiful results no matter where you are.
