Post Gel Polish Care List

 

1. Avoid Water
Minimize prolonged exposure to water for at least 24 hours after application to allow the polish to fully cure.

 

2. Moisturize Regularly
Use cuticle oil or a hand cream daily to keep your cuticles and nails hydrated.

 

3. Be Gentle
Avoid using your nails as tools to prevent chipping or lifting.

 

4. Wear Gloves
When doing dishes or using cleaning products, wear gloves to protect your nails from harsh chemicals and prolonged water exposure.

 

5. Limit Heat Exposure
Keep your nails away from high heat, such as saunas or hot tubs, which can weaken the gel.

 

6. Avoid Harsh Chemicals
Steer clear of acetone-based removers and strong cleaning agents that can damage the gel.

 

7. Get Regular Touch-Ups
Schedule fills or removal every 2-3 weeks to maintain a fresh look and prevent lifting.

 

8. Don’t Pick or Peel
Resist the urge to pick at your gel polish, as this can damage your natural nails.

 

9. Maintain Nail Health
Consider using a strengthening base coat or nail treatments to keep your natural nails strong.

 

10. Follow Proper Removal
If you’re removing the polish yourself, soak nails in acetone or use a professional kit to avoid damage.
