Understanding Nail Preparation

Before diving into the prepping steps, it’s essential to understand why prep is so vital.

Step-by-Step Guide on How to Prep Nail for Gel Polish

Step 1: Gather Your Tools

To prepare your nails, you'll need some essential tools:

- Nail polish remover

- Lint-free wipes

- Cuticle pusher

- Nail buffer

- Nail clipper and file

- Nail cleanser and dehydrator

Step 2: Remove Old Polish

Start by removing any existing nail polish using an acetone-free remover. This ensures no remnants are left that might disrupt the gel's adherence.

Step 3: Shape Your Nails

Using a nail clipper and file, shape your nails to the desired length and style. Whether you prefer square, round, or almond shapes, consistency in size and form will help in a uniform application.

Step 4: Care for Your Cuticles

Gently push back your cuticles with a cuticle pusher. Avoid cutting or harsh treatment as your cuticles play an essential role in nail health.

Step 5: Buff the Nail Surface

Lightly buff the surface of your nails to remove any natural oils. This step ensures that the gel polish can adhere smoothly to the nail surface.

Step 6: Cleanse

Apply a nail cleanser to your nails using lint-free wipes. This crucial step removes dust and oils that may remain after buffing.

Step 7: Use a Nail Primer/Dehydrator

At VENDEENI, we recommend using a nail primer or dehydrator, especially for those with oilier nail beds. This product further ensures the gel polish adheres impeccably by eliminating any residual moisture.
