3 Easy Steps To Removing Your Gel Manicure
We know too well the temptation that comes with wanting to pick and peel off your gel polish. That moment of satisfaction will be fleeting, but the damage you inflict on your nails could take weeks to repair.
Here are some tips for the safest, simplest way to strip away gels until we can see you back in the salon!
Step One: File It Down
First, you're going to want to grab a fresh nail file. File it down any nail breaks or chips to a shape that you want. If you want to take the entire manicure off completely, start by carefully filing away just the topcoat seal.
Step Two: Soak It Off
Place a cotton ball soaked in acetone on each of your nails, then wrap the tip of your finger in foil to hold the ball in place. Let your nails soak for for about ten to 15 minutes, letting them go longer if the polish doesn't easily slide off.
Step Three: Remove Gently
If the polish isn't easily sliding off, grab a fresh acetone-soaked cotton ball and place it on the nail for a few more minutes. Once all the polish is off, add moisture back to your nail beds and hands with our Intensive Hand Treatment.
