šŸ’…How should I prep my nails before applying a Greenā„¢ polish?Updated 5 months ago

Prepare your nails in 4 steps with the Green Range

1) File your nails
Start by filing your nails using the whiteĀ 
Nail FileĀ to shorten them and shape them as desired. Use the soft side of the file (the one with the logo) for shortening. It is important to file in one direction only, without going back and forth, to avoid splitting the nail. Position the file more underneath the nail rather than on top to prevent splitting.

2) Push back the cuticles
Apply theĀ 
Cuticle Softener around the nail and let it sit for about 2 minutes. Once the product has absorbed, use the stainlessĀ Steel Cuticle PusherĀ rounded tip side to gently push back the cuticles in the opposite direction of nail growth. Avoid back-and-forth motions to prevent scratching the nail surface. The square tip is ideal for reaching the sides. If necessary, remove any excess cuticle using the cuticle nippers.

3) Gently buff the surface
Next, use theĀ 
Nail Buffer SpongeĀ to gently buff the surface of the nail and smooth out any remaining imperfections.

4) Clean and degrease
Before applying polish, thoroughly degrease your nails using theĀ 
Gentle Polish Remover Green Flash™ orĀ Green degreaserĀ to eliminate any traces of oil or residue.
