Gel Polish Removal Essentials and Tips:

Tools You’ll Need: Nail file, buffer, acetone or gel remover, cotton, aluminum foil squares, cuticle oil, and a reusable or wooden cuticle pusher.

Step-by-Step Gel Polish Removal

1. Protect Your Skin: Apply cuticle oil (or Vaseline) around nails to prevent drying during removal.
2. Soak Cotton in Acetone: Fill a bowl with acetone and saturate 10 cotton balls.
3. Wrap Fingers in Foil: Place each acetone-soaked cotton ball on your nail, then wrap with foil to secure.
4. Wait and Relax: Set a timer for 15-20 minutes and let the acetone break down the gel.
5. Remove Gel Polish: Gently massage and remove the foil and cotton. Use a cuticle stick to push off any remaining gel from the cuticle to the tip.
6. Rehydrate: After all gel is removed, apply cuticle oil and hand cream to nourish your nails and skin.

Pro Tips:

• Lightly file the topcoat before soaking to break the gel seal.
• Apply thin layers of each product for easier removal.
• Avoid over-soaking to protect nail health.
