Hello, Everyone!
Today by surfing in folders in my computer, I found many pictures of manicure I had and very enjoed
I put them all together for a collage.
And made a research about Art of manicure and history of manicure.
So what what I found" The word manicure comes from a combination of the Latin words “manus” – hand and “cura” – care.
Today, manicure means a system for hand care.
So in every part there is a big history behind! Have you ever thought about it ?
Sometimes I like to stay on Discovery channel or search in Wikipedia, just to know history about things surround me every day.
What about you? Do you like manicure? You prefer paint it by yourself or give it to professionals?
Have a great day!
With love,Alexana

3, 000 years ago, the people of ancient Egypt and China had no idea of the possibilities of contemporary manicure.
600 years ago in China some of the wealthier people preferred to paint their nails in gold or silver and whenever they did use paint, they made it out of wax, egg whites, gelatin and rubber. During the Ming dynasty, women of the aristocracy
painted their nails in black or bright red tones and later wore nail-shaped finger tips wrought out of precious metal in
order to highlight the length of their nails, which was a symbol of their social status.
In the beginning of the 19th century the fashion in America was for short, almond-shaped nails.
Women covered them in aromatic oils and polished them with a soft cloth. Manicure was done using metal instruments, scissors and various acids.
In the early 20s of the 20th century, the automobile industry develops new paints, which are adapted to cover also nails. Pink nail polish came out on the market in 1925 and obtained instant popularity."
