Nail Aftercare

Congratulations! You are the proud owner of a new set of natural nail overlays or nail enhancements, please take pride but also take care and attention, Your new nails will need regular maintenance every 2-3 weeks, as your natural nail grows the product will grow with it, thus leaving a small gap at the cuticle end of the nail, this gap will need in-filling and your nails rebalanced, Occasionally you may lose a nail but the advantage with nail enhancements is that we can put another one on for you!

Regular maintenance will prolong will prolong your investment, I highly recommend you apply solar oil twice daily, if you remove your varnish it is essential that you use a non acetone nail varnish remover, if you re-apply varnish you must use a good quality base coat.

Please remember the following points:

• Do always use the pads of you fingers on switches
• Do pick things up with the sides of your fingers
• Do use a pencil end on a telephone or calculator
• Do not prod or poke behind the nails
• Do wear gloves for all house work or gardening
• When removing/sorting washing do not grab with your new nails, remove with the pads of your fingers
• Do use as jewels and not tools!
• Do not attempt home removal, as you could damage your natural nail
• Do not be tempted to pick or bite your nails
• Wear gloves when applying sun screen
• Cover your nails on sun beds and apply solar oil straight away after your session
• Apply solar oil straight away after your swimming session
• Wear gloves when applying make-up, creams and fake tan
• Do not leave your nails soaking in a warm bath, wear gloves or keep your hands out of the water
• Do not bang your nails on any surfaces
• Do not flick your nails
• Please be aware that stroking pets can cause your nails to discolour, and lift due to lanolin in your pet's coat

Good luck with your nails and have fun!
