Home Removal Kit
£7.00

Kit Contents

  1. 180 grit buffer (multi-use)
  2. Sweet Almond Cuticle Oil (enough for 2-3 removals)
  3. Magpie Beauty Nourish Gel Remover (enough for 2-3 removals)
  4. 10x Foil Wraps
  5. 2x plastic heat up gloves (multi-use)
  6. Wooden Orange Stick (multi-use)

Instructions Please also see video on my Insta

  1. Using the buffer Get most of the top Coat and shine off (avoiding your natural nail as much as you can). When the colour starts coming away that means you’ve gone through the topcoat so that’s great.

  2. Put a drop of oil on the cuticle and soak the cotton on the foil in acetone and wrap round the nail The little fold on the foil goes on the bottom of the wrap to catch any drips of acetone.
  3. Do all 5 fingers of one hand and pop it in the plastic glove.
  4. Set timer for 15 mins: If the gel isn’t curling away after 15 mins reapply the wrap for 5 more mins

  5. Add a drop of oil again on the curling/wrinkling polish and use the orange stick to gentle push off the gel. Try not to wrench the gel off. Just put the wrap back on if it needs a bit more time. Sometimes the gel will curl off, sometimes it will need scraping off like butter. It depends on the client.

  6. Repeat on the next hand.

  7. Wash hands and re-apply cuticle oil

Remove It All- Builder Base
£20.00

Please note I don’t remove all products from other salons.

Silent Treatment

I very well know that sometimes this is the only time you get to yourself. I love a good chat, but I’m also very focussed and can easily get in the zone and work in silence if you’d prefer.
