How Do You Apply Nail Polish When You Have A Visual Disability?
• File your nails, trim them, and push the cuticle up gently with a fingernail. • Apply the polish in smooth strokes from the base of the nail to the tip. Do not worry about getting polish on your skin, just be sure the polish is even and smooth on the nail. Ignore any polish going on the skin. • Allow to dry. If the polish does not feel sticky when you lightly touch it with your finger, then you know it is dry. Add another coat of polish and allow this to dry. Rub gently around the skin area of the nail to remove any excess polish. Do this with nail polish remover on a cotton bud if necessary. Massage your hands with hand lotion, and you are ready to go.
