Everyday gel care

Keep the care simple

Keep hands and the skin around your nails moisturised. Wear suitable gloves for cleaning and avoid using nail edges to open packaging or scrape labels. Small practical changes can reduce unnecessary knocks and exposure.

Do not pick or peel gel polish. If an edge lifts, ask the studio about a repair or removal rather than pulling the product away. Let the artist know what product you are wearing before booking your next visit.

Make room for the next step

Share any lifting or changes when you request a new appointment, so the studio can allow time to assess the nails and discuss removal. A fresh colour is a separate decision from whether the existing product should stay.

If nails or surrounding skin become painful, swollen or persistently irritated, stop cosmetic treatments and seek appropriate professional advice. This general guide does not replace the instructions given for your treatment.
