A Peel Base is ideal if you're impatient with removal—it allows you to safely remove your gel polish without causing damage. Rubber Base, on the other hand, adds extra strength to your nails, preventing bending and enabling them to grow longer if you wish. Together, these products offer the best long-term care for your natural nails.
This shape not only looks elegant but also reduces the likelihood of corners breaking. Almond-shaped nails also allow gel polish to last longer, maintaining its "shield" effect.
If you notice a snag on your nail, smooth it out with a nail file as soon as possible to prevent damage or the temptation to pick at it. Keep a small nail file in your bag for quick fixes.
When preparing your nails for gel polish, gently buff the surface to remove dead skin cells or lightly roughen them. Avoid excessive filing, as it’s not about thinning your nails but creating the perfect base for polish application.
If you’re not using a Peel Base, always use remover to take off gel polish properly. Peeling it off can thin and damage your nails over time.
Regularly moisturise your hands and apply Cuticle Oil to keep them healthy and neat. If you tend to have rough cuticles, keep them tidy with gentle maintenance.
Remember, with the right care and habits, gel polish not only gives you stunning nails but also helps protect your natural nails as you grow them out. Cheers to a year of gorgeous, healthy nails!
