LEARNING OUTCOME 1:
ASSESS PERSONAL ENTREPRENEURIAL COMPETENCIES
Entrepreneur
An entrepreneur is comprehensively defined by Zimmerer &
Scarborough (2005) as someone who “creates a new business in the face of
risk and uncertainty for the purpose of achieving profit and growth by
identifying significant opportunities and assembling the necessary resources
to capitalize on them” (p.3). They are the ones who act on their business
ideas.
Personal Entrepreneurial Competencies
There has been many studies to characterize “the entrepreneurial
personality”; although there is no isolated set of traits that guarantee success,
there were identified behaviors found common to most successful
entrepreneurs. There is a well-known research on human behavior done by
McClelland and McBer which identified 10 behavioral patterns organized into
three general clusters: the achievement, planning, and power clusters
(SERDEF, 2007; 1998). It was found out that these behaviors were also
1

Interpretation
A lower score means a ‘weak’ performance and a higher score
translates to a ‘strong’ performance on a particular competency. A ‘weak’
performance should be regarded as a challenge or an opportunity for
improvement rather than a cause for worry. Improving a competency entails
enough determination, correct practice and strategies, and time for
maturation.

LEARNING OUTCOME 2:
UNDERSTAND BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT & BUSINESS IDEAS
Business Environment and Market
The study of the business environment in a particular location has farreaching and long-term effects on a small or micro enterprise’s viability. In
fact, business ideas and opportunities are partly shaped or determined by the
business location. Unless it is possible to migrate to more favorable
locations, the ideas and opportunities for business will oftentimes be delimited
to the surrounding areas.
The business environment consists of both the tangible and intangible
factors that affect either the external or internal business operations. They
may include the land area available for economic zones, the physical layout
and barriers such as rivers, parks or lakes, and building obstructions as well
as the transportation network; all of which are considered tangible factors.
They also include the demography of clients and suppliers, the
competitors in the locale/area and the available technology for production.
The intangible factors, on the other hand, include the sub-culture, industry
trends, economic and government activity or the political situations in the
area.

Natural and Physical Environment. This concerns the physical location
of a business’ store. The natural environment also pertains to the natural and
man-made structures that may enhance the beauty of the location, such as a
park or a sea front view, or serve as barrier to the location, such as a dump
site or high rise structures that obstruct a view. The living condition in an area
also serves as a standard for the ambience you want to create for your store.
There is also a phenomenon referred to as clustering, where a
particular type of product is offered within the same area. For instance, most
guitar shops are clustered along the intersection of V. Mapa and Aurora
Avenue in Metro Manila; Filipino craft stores crowd the area under the Quiapo
bridge; or car accessories are found in Banawe area.
The key word to have in mind when scanning the physical environment
is the visibility of your intended store to the potential clients.
Demography. This pertains to the number of people living in the area,
their age, gender, socio-economic status, family size, religion and even
growth trends. These are invaluable information that can help entrepreneurs
in matching their product to the target market, in deciding for the marketing
strategy, pricing and product packaging among others.
Culture. Culture or sub-culture, being the totality of the way of life,
ideas and customs of a set of people or society, primarily influence the types
of products that are acceptable to a particular locality. For example, the
influence of the Japanese culture gave rise to minimalist designs. A subculture also shapes the ‘emotional’ environment of an area. For instance, the
feeling of ‘fear’ for a specific location may serve as a barrier for a business; a
place where one does not feel safe because of the prevalence of crime will
discourage entrepreneurs.
Changes in the lifestyle, which is brought about by changes in the
population demography and the economy, also affect a business. These
lifestyle changes may be the increase of women’s participation in the world of
work, change in buying patterns and shift in tastes.
10
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
Government Regulations. The laws and policies of the national and
local government units also influence the business operations. Some
examples of policies that directly affect entrepreneurs are the imposition or
removal of taxes for products, the establishment of economic zones and
assistance in product labeling and packaging of products. In addition,
improvement of facilities and roads improve transportation network that
facilitates transfer of products from one area to another or promotes
accessibility for consumers.
Economy. This pertains to the management of resources and study of
the system of production, distribution, and consumption of goods and
services. A country’s economy influences both the entrepreneurs and
consumers as it relates to the financial matters of business like taxes and
interest rates and to the quality of life, cost of utilities and services, among
others. Even small scale entrepreneurs must learn to study economic
indicators to improve business forecasts, such as when to buy certain
materials and supplies, when to open a store or introduce new products
based on consumer spending, or when to hire employees. Some examples
of economic indicators include the (a) Gross Domestic Product (GDP) which
increases when a country’s economy is doing good; (b) Unemployment rate
which indicates that more unemployed people usually signal an economy
getting worse; and (c) Price Indexes and Inflation rates which determine the
buying power of consumers.
The existing enterprises, who are either direct or indirect competitors,
are also part of the business environment. It is important to scout for
products or services that answer a similar need to what you intend to provide.
Think of how you can create a niche that will differentiate your product from
the other businesses – either in specifying a target market or in differentiating
your product quality or price. The key concept to think about is acquiring a
reasonable market share despite of the competition.
Technology. Technological changes are inventions based on the
application of science that create new product or process improvements.
Some examples of technological changes are mobile tools that enable online
connection, new business tools for analysis and database, social networks
and modern, digital equipment. These advances in technology result to
11
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
efficiency and productivity at a lesser cost. It can be observed that sending
message through e-mail provides a cheaper and faster means compared to
hand-delivered mails (snail mails). An entrepreneur can benefit from
technological changes by identifying the appropriate technological solution
available in the area or locale.
At this point, it must be quite clear why an environment scanning of an
area considered as business site is helpful for the entrepreneur. In fact, the
impact of the factors in the business environment does not only include the
business operation but is even relevant at the start of the venture – during the
business idea generation and opportunity identification stage. A concise
guide on how to spot and identify business opportunities are provided in the
following section. Keep reading!
Spotting and Identifying Business Opportunities
Spotting business opportunities is one of the most essential aspects of
entrepreneurship. An entrepreneur must have a keen eye for identifying
opportunities that can potentially turn into a good product or business venture.
At the same time, an entrepreneur should also know which opportunities to
drop and which ones to develop.
Idea Generation
The first step in identifying a good business opportunity is to look for
many opportunities. This is called the idea generation phase (SERDEF,
2007). The following are good sources of business ideas (Hisrich, Peters, &
Shepherd, 2008; Looser & Schlapfer, 2001).

LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
Screening Business Ideas
Once you have generated a number of business opportunities and
ideas, the next step is to select and screen these. Though there can be many
ways to do this, a good way to proceed is to screen your ideas based on 1)
your personality and personal preferences and 2) the characteristics of a
good business (SERDEF, 2007). Consider the following criteria:
1. Personality and Personal Preferences
a. Personal Preference
b. Education, Skills, and Experience
c. Work Experience
d. Support from family and friends
2. Characteristics of a good business
a. Demand for Product
b. Availability of skills, raw materials, technology, and capital
c. Profitability
SWOT Analysis
Once you have chosen your business idea, the next step is to conduct
a SWOT analysis in order to determine the Strengths, Weaknesses,
Opportunities and Threats of your potential business. This step will help you
improve your business of choice and prepare for challenges. The table below
will help you differentiate among these four features.

As you go through this module, you will be able to understand the
concepts in performing Hand Spa as an added service to manicure.
Readings and enhancement activities are provided to serve as a guide for
you. So keep going!
Learning Outcome 1 - Apply hand treatment
Objectives
At the end of the lesson, the learner is expected to:
1. Analyze condition of the clients’ hand
2. Observe safety precautions and sanitation at all times
3. Prepare the necessary tools, supplies/materials and equipment for
used in hand spa

Lesson 1.1
NAIL STRUCTURE
It is very essential for a manicurist to have knowledge on the different
parts of the nails for this will be your basis in giving nail care services to your
clients.
The nail is an appendage of the skin. Nail is a horny, translucent plate
that protects the tips of the fingers and toes. It is composed mainly of keratin,
a protein substance that forms the base of all horny tissue. The nail is whitist
and transluscent in appearance and allows the pinkish colour of the nail bed
to be seen. The horny plate contains no nerves or blood vessels
Onyx is the technical term for the nail. The condition of the nail, like
that of the skin, reflects the general health of the body. Onychology is the
25
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
study of nail. The nails vary in thickness, being heaviest on the thumbs and
big toes.
The characteristics of healthy nails are firm and flexible, slightly pink in
color and the surface is smooth, curved and unspotted, without any hollows or
wavy ridges.
Diagram of the nail and its structure.
Diagram of the Nail
The nail consists of three parts: nail body, nail root and free edge
 Nail Body or Nail Plate - visible portion of the nail that is attached to
the nail bed.
 Free edge - end portion of the nail plate which extends beyond the
fingertip. It is shaped during manicure.
 Nail root - beginning of nail found at the base and is embedded
underneath the skin.
.Structures
Beneath the Nail
The structures beneath the nail include the nail bed, matrix and lunula.
 Nail Bed – the skin upon which the nail body or nail plate rests. It is
supplied with many blood vessels and nerves. The blood vessels
supply nourishment for the nail.
26
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
 Matrix – part of the nail bed which contains nerves and blood vessels
and is located beneath the nail root. It produces cells that generate
and harden the nail and will continue to grow as long as it receives
nutrition and remains in a healthy condition.
 Lunula – halfmoon shape found at the base of the nail where the
matrix connects with the nail bed.
Structures Surrounding the Nail
The structures surrounding the nail include the cuticle, eponychium,
hyponychium, perionychium, nail walls and nail grooves
 Cuticle - the overlapping skin around the nail. A normal cuticle should
be loose and pliable.
 Eponychium - cuticle extension at the base of the nail body which
partly overlaps the lunula
 Hyponychium – portion of the skin under the free edge of the nail.
 Nail Walls – folds of the skin overlapping the sides of the nail
 Nail Grooves - are slits or tracks in the skin at the side of the nail upon
which the nail moves as it grows.
 Mantle – deep fold of the skin in which the nail root is embedded.
Nail Growth
There are factors that can influence the growth of nails such as
nutrition, general health and disease. A nail grows forward, starting at the
matrix and extending over the tip of the finger. Like hair, nails grow faster in
warm weather. Adult’s nail growth is about 1/8 inch per month whereas the
nails of the children grow faster than those of the elderly. Toenails grow
slowly but they are thicker and harder than fingernails.

Lesson 1.2
Examine your own fingernails. Check its structure and analyze its
condition. What have you observed?
Have you seen somebody who has nail disorder? Nail problem? Are
you aware what cause it? In your next lesson, you have to study why some
people have nail problems. In here, you will be aware on how microorganisms
can infect and affect your body particularly the nails and learn more about
how this can be treated.
28
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
NAIL DISEASES AND DISORDERS
Did you know your nails can reveal signs to your overall health? Have
you noticed some abnormalities in your fingernails? Are you aware that
problems in the liver, lungs and heart can show up in your nails? Do you bite
your nails? Watch out and learn what your nails will reveal!
Onychosis refers to any disease, disorder or condition of the nails.
Having knowledge about infections caused by bacteria will prevent the
spread of infectious diseases, preserve the health of the cosmetologist and
the patron and appreciate the value of proper sanitation.
Pus is the yellowish fluid that oozes from the wound. It is a sign of
infection. White blood cells attack the bacteria and consume them. The pus
contains blood cells, body cells and dead and living bacteria. Bacteria may
invade the body through cuts, scratches or punctures in the skin or through
any of the body openings.
Fungi are plant organisms that live on dead, decaying or living matter.
Some fungi are capable of causing serious infections but some are harmful
and beneficial.
Diseases may be considered contagious or non-contagious. A disease
becomes contagious or communicable when it spreads from one person to
another by direct or indirect contact. Some of the common contagious
diseases are tuberculosis, common cold, ringworm, scabies, head lice, and
virus infections. Coughing, sneezing, unclean hands, eating utensils and
salon equipment play a role in spreading diseases. Diseases that are not able
to be spread from person to person are considered as non-contagious.
Genetic diseases, cancers, mental disorders, autoimmune diseases and heart
disease are some of the many diseases that aren't contagious.
Sterilization is the process whereby microorganisms are destroyed.
Equipments and tools found in salon are needed to be sterilized. Sanitizing or
sanitation refers to the physical or chemical means used to keep the salon
and its equipment as clean and free of germs as possible in order to protect
the health of the public.

Lesson 1.9
POST HAND SPA ACTIVITY
Storing and Sanitation Techniques
Take a look at the things around you. Even though these things may
look clean in your eyes but what you do not know is that there is still
presence of contaminants. Contaminant is any substance that causes
contamination. Salon professional must always ensure safety and sanitation
in the salon to prevent and control infections and contagious diseases
although it is very impossible to keep the salon free from all contamination.
53
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
There is still a solution to prevent and control infections or contagious
diseases in the salon and that is through decontamination. Decontamination
is removing pathogens and other substances from tools or surfaces.
There are three levels of decontamination and these are sterilization,
sanitation and disinfection.
Sterilization is the process of making an object germ-free by the
destruction of all kinds of bacteria and it is also the highest level of
decontamination. Sterilization is impossible since you cannot sterilize all the
tools and equipment used in the salon.
Sanitation means significantly reducing the number of pathogens
found on a surface and is also considered as the lowest level of
decontamination. Why is sanitation considered as the lowest level of
decontamination? Example is the hair in a comb. Hair is the contaminant in
the comb. How do you apply sanitation here? All you have to do is to remove
the hair from the comb and it is as easy as that. That is why sanitation is the
lowest level of decontamination.
Disinfection is the second level of decontamination next to
sterilization. Disinfection is very much applicable in the salon since
sterilization is not practical and sanitation alone is not enough. Disinfection is
the use of disinfectant and antiseptic. Disinfectant is any substance or
chemicals used to destroy bacteria but is not safe to use on skin while
antiseptic is an agent that prevents the multiplication of bacteria. Since it is
milder than disinfectant. It can be used directly on the skin.
Any of these levels of decontamination must always be a part of every
nail care services and should be done before and after giving nail services to
your client. Proper waste disposal and proper handling and use of chemicals
are also of great importance when it comes to post-service activity.
Service Maintenance Program
Now, after performing the hand spa treatment to your client, it is time for you
to do the following steps:
1. Dispose waste products including used wax according to occupational
health and safety rules and regulations.
54
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
2. Sanitize and store tools, supplies and equipment.
3. Clean and sanitize work station for the next treatment activity.
Good Housekeeping System (5’s)

sole. Reverse directions and rub the foot moving
slowly towards the top, reducing pressure as
you go.
2. Rub the heel of the foot. Use your thumbs
for this, making small circles with medium to
heavy pressure. Work your way around the
entire heel. Repeat this action on the ball of the
foot.
3. Use cross-fiber friction on the heels of the
feet. This means you use your thumbs to push
up and down on the heel. While one thumb is
pushing up, the other should be pushing down.
77
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
4. Massage around the ankle bone. Use both
hands to rub in a circular motion around the
bone on either side, and gently rub your fingers
over the top of the bone.
5. Use a fist to massage the arch of the foot.
With your hand closed in a fist, use the tops of
your fingers to apply pressure to the arch. Roll
your hand back and forth to knead the skin
gently.
6. Massage the toes. Spend time on each
individual toe
 Go to each toe and gently pull on it. This
may cause the joint to pop, but unless it
causes the person discomfort, continue
to do this to each toe.
 Slide your index finger in the gap
between each toe. Spend time moving it
back and forth, rubbing the base of each
toe with your index and thumb if desired.
Other Techniques in Foot Massage
1. Apply the milking stroke. To do this, hold
the foot in both hands and give ten short, strong
pulls on one side and then the other. Imagine
the pulling motion of milking a cow while doing
this.
78
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
2. Use the Indian rub technique. Hold the side
of the foot with both thumbs placed on the
inside center of the arch. Move your hands back
and forth as if you were wringing out a wet
towel. Allow a lot of movement of the foot while
applying this technique.
3. Try petrissage on the achilles tendon and
lower foot. Petrissage is a type of massage
that involves lifting and squeezing muscles to
stimulate them.
 Starting at the back of the heel and ankle
around the achilles tendon, use one hand to
gently squeeze and pull the foot. Start
softly, but apply more pressure and speed
the longer you do it.
 Push the muscles starting at the achilles
tendon and working towards the toes.
Doing this will lift the muscles of the foot,
helping to work out impurities.
4. Massage the long muscle of the foot. The
long muscle begins near the achilles tendon
and ends at the knee, and is closely tied to
muscle movements in the foot.
 Have your partner straighten their leg
vertically, and use your forearm to apply
pressure downward into the foot. Slowly
move your arm so as to use your elbow to
apply more pressure into the foot.
79
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
5. Perform ankle rotations. Hold the foot up,
and use one hand to rotate the foot around the
ankle. Move the foot in circles ten times in one
direction, and then ten times in the opposite
direction. The ankle joints may pop, but unless
this causes the person any discomfort there is
no need to stop.
Tips and Warnings
Use calm, soothing voice while giving the massage. Don't speak
too rapidly or in a strained voice. Let whatever you say soothe the
receiver of your massage even further.
Something
useful and effective is playing soft music
Glittering
Ideas
while giving the massage.
Creams tend to be thicker than lotions and work well for foot
massages. Oils work to soften the rough calluses on the bottom
of feet and you can also warm the oil or cream to make it more
comfortable for the person receiving the massage.
Classroom-Based Activity in Foot Massage
1. Students will be grouped with 6 members in each group. Each
student must be able to do the activity to five (5) students who
belong to their group.

Know
As you go through this module, you will be able to understand the
concepts in performing Manicure and Pedicure. Readings and enhancement
activities are provided to serve as a guide for you. So keep going!
Learning Outcome 1- Clean finger nails and toe nails
Objectives
At the end of the lesson, the learner is expected to:
1.
Check and analyze client’s nail structure and condition
2.
Familiarize with the different shapes of nails
3.
Prepare appropriate sanitized tools and equipment, supplies and
materials according to salon procedures
4.
Clean nails in accordance with the proper and correct procedure
Lesson 3.1
NAIL SHAPES
Nails vary into four general shapes. Before you start to work on your
client’s nails, both of you should agree on the best nail shape. It should
conform to that of the fingertips for a more natural effect. People who perform
work mostly with their hands prefer to have a shorter nails to avoid breakage
and injury.
You should examine the hands of your client and its condition before
starting. If you notice some disorder, prepare nail repair. You should provide
your client protective materials/supplies for hygienic purposes.
102
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
Are you aware of your nail shape? Do you know your ideal nail shape
for your desired manicure? Now is the time for you to discover the different
types of nail shapes.
Types of Nail Shape
Round
As one of the most conservative shapes of the bunch,
the round shape is ideal for men and those who like to
maintain short nails. This
shape is flattering for
wide nails, and gives the illusion of a thinner nail bed.
File the side walls straight like a square, then round
the free edge into that perfect swooping circle.
Square
This shape is referred to a classic shape. The square
is ideal for a bigger nail bed (it tends to make smaller
nail beds look shorter and wider).
To create this timeless shape, file the side walls
straight and make sure they're perpendicular to the
free edge of the nail. Once you've got the perfect
square, angle your emery board and bevel the nail.
Oval
The tapered side walls of the oval create an elegant
shape for women. Oval shapes flatter both wide and
narrow nail beds, and add length with a graceful tip.
To achieve the perfect oval shape, file side walls
straight to make sure they are even. Then, shape the
side walls into a rounded oval, making sure the
angles are even on each side.
103
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
Square Oval (Squoval)
Combining the elegance of the oval with the strength
of the square, the squoval is a popular nail shape for
most fingers.
First begin with a square with straight and even side
walls. File the corners until your free edge is rounded
and beveled. Remember, you still want strong side
supports—don't go too file-happy.
Almond/Point
The pointed nail is a popular style for acrylic and nail
art designs, especially in Eastern Europe and Asia.
And while it's not favored for the everyday look, this
extreme shape can actually slenderize and lengthen
the fingers. File the side walls evenly and taper until
you've reached the desired tip.
Deciding Your Shape
How do you decide which nail shape is right for you? If your nail beds
are wide, try a squoval shape. If they are narrow, try a sharp square shape to
widen and strengthen. If you keep short nails, a rounded shape is your best
bet for low-maintenance style. You can also look at the lunula (the half-moon
shape on your nail bed) for nail-shaping guidance. If it's more curved, try oval
or rounded.

Know
As you go through this module, you will be able to understand the
concepts in creating Fancy Nail Designs. Readings and enhancement
activities are provided to serve as a guide for you. So keep going!
Learning Outcome 1 - Perform different fancy designs on finger nails
and toe nails
Objectives
At the end of the lesson, the learner is expected to:
1. Prepare nails for cleaning
2. Observe safety and sanitation at all times
3. Apply fancy designs on fingernails and toenails
Lesson 4.1
TYPES OF FANCY NAIL DESIGNS
What is Nail Art?
Nail art is the practice of painting decorative designs on the nails.
Nail art is a creative activity that draws pictures or designs to your nail.
These days, fingernails and toenails are seen by some as important
points of beauty. Also, it is a type of fashion activity, related to manicuring.
Free Hand Designing is also considered as nail art since you will
create your own design by just using an ordinary nail polish and common
144
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
household tools. Creativity and resourcefulness are the key in making nail art
design.
There are commercial shops (nail bars) where nails are worked on to
make them attractive. The main product is acrylic nails with ready-made
designs which can be stuck on top of the natural nails
The nail art kit includes special brushes, strippers, marbling tools and
different pattern pins for making the designs. Nail art pens are the ideal tools
for drawing and are specifically designed to paint fine strokes, dots or
patterns on the nail surface.
Preparation:
 Prepare nails for cleaning
 Apply nail products according to manufacturer’s recommendation
 Consult client from time to time to ensure safety and comfort during
the entire process

A. Nail art stickers
A wide variety of stickers are out there to
choose from. There are stunning designs,
styles, and different sizes suitable for all types
of nails. The latest model stickers are made up
of durable rubber, providing the best sticky
backing. The stickers include black and white,
colorful, French manicure, glitter and metallic,
random, little finger, rhinestone, and seasonal
stickers.
145
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
Samples of nail art stickers
Things you’ll need
1. Nail file
2. Cuticle pusher
3. Small scissors
4. Set of nail stickers
Steps on how to use nail art stickers
1. Start with clean, dry nails. They should be completely bare of
polish. Push back cuticles gently, too.
2. Most nail stickers on the market are pre-cut to match common nail
shapes, but it’s always good to have small scissors handy just in
case any decal is too large or slightly off shape. Often sets come
with more than 10 stickers per set, so you should find one that fits
each nail pretty well (and have extras in case you tear one!)
3. For a perfect match, before you remove the backing, pre-measure
the nail sticker on top of your nail. Go larger if you’re in doubt,
because you can always trim excess. If necessary, pre-trim a decal
before you stick it on—once it is applied, it will be more difficult to
get a clean cut.
146
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
4. Press on your nail sticker close to the cuticle and smooth it out toward
the end.
5. In case of extra sticker beyond the free edge of the nail, use your file
downward along tip of nail to remove the extra, taking care not to file
on top of sticker. If you accidentally file too much you will see your
nail showing through at the tip, do not take sticker off. For an easy fix,
just add a little polish in a shade that matches sticker, right along the
edge as needed.
6. The final trick to keeping stickers put is to push and pull your thumb
down onto each nail, from cuticle to tip. The heat generated from the
"ironing" .
effect will help them last longer and no need for top coat
7. Depending on the directions listed on your stickers, you'll either peel
them off or remove with regular polish remover.
B. Nail Art Stamping
Nail Art Stamping is a new nail-imprinting kit that
lets you put designs by stamping pre-designed
images on your nails in minutes and there are
hundreds of image plates to choose from.
Things you’ll need
image plate
stamper
scraper
147
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
Samples in Nail Art Stamping
Procedure in Nail Art Stamping
1. Start with a dry base color.
2. Paint a thick layer across the pattern you want.
3. Pull your scraper firmly across so the polish left is
the pattern only
4. Firmly press your stamper in a rolling motion
across the plate to pick up the polish.
148
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
5. Line up the edge of the pattern and your nail.
6. Press the design across your nail in a rolling left
to the right motion.
7. Clean up your cuticles and finish with top coat
when dry.

Tips and Warnings
Make sure to clean your fingernails and apply base coat (white or
platinum) before you proceed with the water marbling technique.
Procedure in Water Marbling
1. Start with a bowl of room temperature water with 3
drops of baby oil for every selected color of nail
polish.
2. Add a drop of polish from a low height, you will
see how it spreads out.
3. Keep adding drops, alternating colors, until you
have a bulls eye shape.
4. Using a toothpick, pull from the center outward,
but don’t touch the outer ring until it is fully dried.
151
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
5. Keep pulling the polish until you make a design
you like.
6. Cover your finger in oil and place it directly above
the part you like and submerge it.
7. Pull away the excess polish by wrapping it around
the toothpick.
8. Quickly remove your finger from the water and
lightly blow away any droplets left on the nail.
9. Let dry and finish with top coat.

Note: Before creating fancy nail designs, you must have the basic nail art
tools to create the designs that you want. Common household tools, such as
cheese-cloth, paper towels, tape, needles and pencils, toothpicks, straws,
and stamps can also be used in doing nail art designs.
Lesson 4.2
NAIL DESIGNING TOOLS
Basic Nail Art Tools
Basic nail art tools that you need to create fancy nail designs:
1. Nail polishes
1.1 Base coat
- A liquid product applied to the nail plate before
applying the liquid nail polish or color enamel to
prevent discoloration.
- Allow your nail polish to glide on smoothly
- White or platinum base coat can be used
153
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
1.2
Nail polish or color enamel
-Apply to give color to the nail
-Apply twice over the base coat
1.3
Top coat
- Apply last over liquid nail polish
- Protects the polish against chipping or cracking
- Apply to ensure that a manicure will last
2.
Nail dotters
-This is used to create dot and circle patterns
(example is create simple polka dot designs)
-They come in a variety of sizes to choose from
depending on the size of the dots you want to
create.
Tips and Warnings
Be careful not to use too much pressure that may cause the dots to
look deformed. Remember to clean them after use and dry
thoroughly. These tools are made of metal and susceptible to
rusting.
Glittering Ideas
If you don’t have nail dotters, you can use bobby pins.
Just bend them out straight, and use the round tips at the end like
normal dotters.
154
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
3.
Nail stripers
-These are nail polishes that come with a long, thin
brush rather than the usual flat and broad ones.
-It is used for painting lines and adding random flicks
of color.
Glittering Ideas
If you don’t want to buy a new polish every time you want to try
another color, you could alternatively get a nail striper brush. You
can use water-based nail paint which makes the nail striper brush
easier to clean. If you’ve used nail polish, use acetone, some soap
water and a paper towel to clean your brush.
4. Stationery tape
-This tape can be used in creating
super neat straight lines and stripes.
Any sort of normal scotch tape is
fine, but you can experiment and
see which one gives the best results.
They’re great for creating neat lines
and geometric shapes. Just cut the
tape into the desired strip/shape,
paste it onto your nail and paint over.
Tips and Warnings
Always make sure that base coat is thoroughly dry. Cut the tape before
you start painting your nails so you avoid smudging
Use tweezers to remove the tape to prevent accidentally messing up
your nails.
If you mess up, you don’t have to start from scratch again. Use a nail
art brush and touch up where necessary.
155
LM-Beauty Care (NAIL CARE) Grade 9
5.
Nail Art Brushes
-A good set of nail art brushes are very
essential tools when doing a nail art.
- The main types of brushes for nail art:
fan-shaped brushes
flat brushes
flat angled brushes
thin brushes (for detail) and long stripers
Completion
-
Client is advised on after-nail-care service and nail maintenance
practices.
