Cuticle oil

For best results, apply cuticle oil at least twice a day to keep your nails hydrated and healthy. During colder months, you may need to use it more frequently to prevent dryness and lifting around your nail enhancements.

I offer nourishing cuticle oil pens in various scents for just £8 Get in touch if you’d like to purchase one!


Gloves!

To keep your gel nails looking their best, avoid exposing them to harsh chemicals or soaking your hands in water for extended periods without wearing gloves. Prolonged contact with water and chemicals can weaken the bond between the gel and your natural nails, leading to lifting.

Steam/sauna

You are best off trying to avoid steam rooms and saunas with your nail enhancements, as it can effect the longevity of your nails. if this cannot be avoided try oil before and after your session.

same goes for swimming, if it can be avoided please do. please be aware regular submersion of nails and exposure to chlorine could effect the longevity of your nails


Jewels not tools

To help your nail enhancements last, avoid using your nails as tools no picking, lifting, or opening cans with them. Instead, use the pads of your fingers or a tool like a knife or key to open boxes safely.

Around the holidays, be especially mindful when peeling off tape or opening packaging picking at cellotape is a common cause of lifting during Christmas time!


Any issues get in touch!

If you experience any problems with your nails before your next appointment, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

I offer free fixes for any lifting that occurs within the first 3 days after your appointment. Not all gel systems suit every nail type, and sometimes it takes a little trial and error to find the perfect match.

If you're unsure which service to book, consider a Prescriptive Manicure & Consultation. We’ll discuss your lifestyle, nail type, and preferences to determine the best option for long-lasting, healthy nails.
