aftercare
a few simple habits keep your set looking fresh and help it last.
the first 24 hours
go easy on hot water, long soaks and heavy lifting while everything settles. try to avoid really hot tubs and saunas for the first day.
every day
massage a drop of cuticle oil into each nail once or twice a day. it keeps your skin soft and your gel flexible so it is less likely to lift.
wear gloves for dishes, cleaning products and gardening.
be kind to your nails
use your fingertips, not your nails, to open cans, peel stickers or scrape things. nails are jewelry, not tools.
please do not pick, peel or bite your set. lifting product can pull off a layer of your natural nail.
if something breaks or lifts
message me on instagram before trying to fix it yourself. a lifted edge can let water in, so it is best to have it looked at soon.
when it is time for a refresh
most sets are happiest with a fill or fresh set every 2 to 3 weeks. please let me remove your old product so your natural nails stay healthy.
