Manicure Clean Up 101 ft Q-tips Precision Tips!

Sponsored
With the help of Q-tips Precision tips, manicure clean up is a breeze!  The Q-tips Precision tips are so incredibly handy and can be used for a million different things. I swatch a TON of polishes a week and they aren’t always perfect (Even though it may seem like it… but hey I’m human!)  – That’s when I turn to Q-tips for a little help! They don’t call them the Ultimate Beauty Tool for nothing!

The precision tips are not only great for nail clean up, but also great for makeup application as well! Who needs fancy makeup brushes!? 

The tapered ends on the Q-tips are specifically designed for precise application and touch ups. I always tend to get a bit of polish on my skin, and I can just dab the tip into some acetone and voila! all clean! 
It really is a piece of cake – No more messy manicures again! Two snaps for Q-tips!
You are now officially Holiday party ready! 
If you’re someone who loves painting your nails, but always seems to make a few little mistakes, I would definitely recommend grabbing some Q-tips Precision tips! 
If you’re looking for some amazing beauty inspiration, go check out Q-tips on Instagram! I could scroll through their feed for hours checking out some of the photos they post!
How do YOU get Holiday ready?

    This is such a good idea! My nails are always a mess after I do them. I usually just wait it out and it takes or day or two to wash off my skin, but this is a much better idea.
