How to Remove Gel Nail Polish?

👉🏻🗑️To effectively use remover gel to remove gel nail polish, follow these organized steps, ensuring a safe and efficient process:

👉 Materials Needed:
🛒- Nail file
🛒- Bozlin Remover gel (formulated for gel polish/nail art)
🛒- Aluminum foil or silicone clips
🛒- Cotton pads or balls
🛒- Orangewood stick or cuticle pusher
🛒- Nourishing cuticle oil or hand cream

👉 Step-by-Step Guide:
1️⃣. Prepare Your Nails:
   - File the Top Layer: Gently buff the shiny top coat of the nail art using a nail file. This breaks the seal and allows the remover gel to penetrate effectively. Avoid filing too aggressively to prevent nail damage.
2️⃣. Apply Remover Gel:
   - Generous Application: Use a brush or applicator to apply a thick layer of remover gel directly onto each nail, ensuring full coverage of the nail art. Focus on edges where polish may lift.
3️⃣. Cover and Wait:
   - Wrap or Clip: Place a small cotton pad over each nail, then secure it with aluminum foil wrapped around the fingertip. Alternatively, use silicone clips designed for gel removal. This enhances absorption and prevents drying.
   - Soak Time: Allow the gel to work for 6–10 minutes. Gel formulas may require slightly longer (up to 15 minutes) for stubborn or layered nail art.
4️⃣. Remove Gel Nail Polish:
   - Check Readiness: Gently test a nail with the orangewood stick after soaking. The polish should lift easily without scraping.
   - Gentle Removal: Wipe or push off the softened polish using the stick in a downward motion. Avoid forcing it, as this can damage the nail bed.
5️⃣. Clean Residue:
   - Wipe Nails: Use a cotton pad lightly soaked in remover gel or acetone to wipe away any remaining residue. For glitter or thick layers, repeat the soaking process briefly.
6️⃣. Aftercare:
   - Wash Hands: Cleanse with soap and water to remove product traces.
   - Moisturize: Apply cuticle oil and hand cream to rehydrate nails and skin, counteracting dryness from the removal process.

👉 Important Tips:
- Product Variations: Always check the remover gel’s instructions; some may not require foil/clips.
- Skin Protection: Avoid prolonged skin contact with the remover gel to prevent irritation.
- Nail Health: If nails feel weak post-removal, take a break from polish and use strengthening treatments.
