Nothing beats getting pampered at a salon, but all those professional manicures can add up. Try it at home with these tips from the pros.

To complete this How-To you will need:

A dishwasher or some disinfectant
Some nail polish remover
Cotton balls
Nail clippers
An emery board
Some warm, soapy water
A shallow bowl
A towel
A cuticle oil or cream
Some orange sticks
Half a lemon
Some hand cream
A hot, damp towel
A clear base coat
A colored nail polish
And a clear top coat

Step 1: Take off rings

Take off any rings and set them aside until you are through and your nails are dry.

Step 2: Clean tools

Make sure all reusable tools are clean. Run them through the dishwasher or clean them with disinfectant before starting.

Tip: Lay out all your materials that you'll need for easy access—once your nails are wet, you don't want to have to dig through a makeup bag to find something.

Step 3: Remove old polish

If there's any old polish on your nails, remove it with a cotton ball soaked in remover.

Step 4: Trim & shape nails

Trim your nails with a clipper if they're on the longer side, and then shape them with the emery board into ovals or rounded squares. Start on one side of the nail and use short strokes in one direction only—toward the center of the nail—and then repeat on the other side of the nail.

Step 5: Soak fingers

Soak your fingers in a bowl filled with warm, soapy water for two minutes and then dry your hands.

Step 6: Apply cuticle product

Massage cuticle oil or cream into your cuticles to soften them further.

Step 7: Clean under nails

Pull off a small piece of a cotton ball and wrap it around the tip of an orange stick. Soak it in nail polish remover and use this to remove any dirt or lingering polish under your nails.

Step 8: Push back cuticles

Push back your cuticles with the orange stick—use a new, disposable one or wash the one you've just used.

Tip: Never cut your cuticles—it can lead to infection.

Step 9: Trim hangnails

Trim any dead hangnails with your clippers.

Tip: To nourish your nails and make the tips whiter, dip them into a half of a lemon.

Step 10: Rub on hand cream

Rub on hand cream to moisturize your hands and cuticles.

Step 11: Wrap hands

Wrap your hands in a hot towel for a minute to help the cream soak in.

Step 12: Wipe nails

Wipe your nails with a cotton ball soaked in nail polish remover—they must be oil-free for the base coat to adhere properly.

Step 13: Apply base coat

Apply a base coat of a colorless nail polish and allow it to dry.

Tip: Leave your base coat just a little tacky and apply a little on the underside of the tip—it will help the colored polish resist chipping.

Step 14: Stir polish

Rotate your bottle of colored polish so the mixing ball in it stirs the polish, but don't shake—it will create bubbles, which will end up marring the finish on your nails.

Step 15: Remove wand

Remove the wand from your colored polish, wiping one edge of the brush against the opening of the bottle to remove excess polish.

Step 16: Apply first stroke

Place the brush in the middle of your nail, almost at the base of your cuticle. Back the brush up until the color just reaches the cuticle, then pull it forward to the end of your nail.

Step 17: Cover entire nail

Repeat this to the right and left of the center stripe, dunking and wiping the brush on the bottle each time, so the entire nail is covered with three strokes.

Tip: Have an orange stick handy—use it to wipe off any polish mistakes while they're still wet. Wet it with a little polish remover for big or stubborn mistakes.

Step 18: Polish all nails

Continue polishing all your nails and let them dry completely.

Step 19: Add 2nd coat

Add a second coat of colored polish in the same way and let them dry completely again.

Tip: Dip your nails in ice-cold water to speed the drying process.

Step 20: Apply top coat

Apply a thin clear top coat to seal the color, and enjoy what might be the best part of the manicure process—at least an hour of enforced, hands-free relaxation.

There's a fire starting in my heart,
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark,

Finally, I can see you crystal clear,
Go ahead and sell me out and a I'll lay your ship bare,
See how I'll leave with every piece of you,
Don't underestimate the things that I will do,

There's a fire starting in my heart,
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark,

The scars of your love remind me of us,
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all,
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless,
I can't help feeling,

We could have had it all,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
Rolling in the deep,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),
You had my heart inside of your hand,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
And you played it to the beat,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),

Baby, I have no story to be told,
But I've heard one on you and I'm gonna make your head burn,
Think of me in the depths of your despair,
Make a home down there as mine sure won't be shared,

The scars of your love remind me of us,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
I can't help feeling,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),

We could have had it all,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
Rolling in the deep,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),
You had my heart inside of your hands,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me),


And you played it to the beat,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),

Could have had it all,
Rolling in the deep,
You had my heart inside of your hands,
But you played it with a beating,

Throw your soul through every open door,
Count your blessings to find what you look for,
Turn my sorrow into treasured gold,
You'll pay me back in kind and reap just what you've sown,

(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
We could have had it all,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),
We could have had it all,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
It all, it all, it all,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),

We could have had it all,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
Rolling in the deep,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),
You had my heart inside of your hands,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
And you played it to the beat,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),

Could have had it all,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
Rolling in the deep,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep),
You had my heart inside of your hands,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me),

But you played it,
You played it,
You played it,
You played it to the beat.

Come on over and do the twist

When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darlin' when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain
We've been through this such a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain
But lovers always come and lovers always go
An no one's really sure who's lettin' go today
Walking away
If we could take the time to lay it on the line
I could rest my head
Just knowin' that you were mine
All mine
So if you want to love me
then darlin' don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walkin'
In the cold November rain

Do you need some time...on your own
Do you need some time...all alone
Everybody needs some time...on their own
Don't you know you need some time...all alone
I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you

Sometimes I need some time...on my
own Sometimes I need some time...all alone
Everybody needs some time...on their own
Don't you know you need some time...all alone

And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain, ohhh yeahhh
I know that you can love me
When there's no one left to blame
So never mind the darkness
We still can find a way
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
Even cold November rain


Don't ya think that you need somebody
Don't ya think that you need someone
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one
