For anyone watching this for beginner knowledge, you should indeed wash your hands after doing the cuticle care, especially if you are using a cuticle softener gel - that should be fully rinsed off otherwise it can cause issues for those with sensitive skin and/or thin nails. (I have learnt this from sad experience.) Wash hands as you would normally, but keep the soap light since you are mostly rinsing away debris and cuticle softener. Then use acetone or dehydrator to remove the oils you just put back onto your nails. :D Also, if you do not have an e-file (or don't want to risk it) you can use glass pushers which do an excellent job with pushing back skin adhered to the nail plate and are easier to use than an e-file.
❤ you did a great job.!!!🎉 i enjoyed watching you..I thought i was the only one taking 3hrs 😂. Ive been doing mine since January and I'm obsessed tooooooo. Keep going sis
I do Gel X and remove gel. I do get damage but unlike acrylics the gel can be soaked off with acetone. It is a lengthy, annoying process usually but if you are patient and do not tear them off or file down to your natural nail, the damage will be minimal. Acrylic can’t be soaked off so you have to file all the way down which usually damages the nail more. Any time you even buff the natural nail you are doing some damage though… so this process will do some damage. What helps is not doing a full removal each time and instead do fills and rebalancing every 2 weeks as needed

Rubbing alcohol has oils so yes it’s different from the dehydrator in the bottle
Relatable.

They lasted a month!! 🫡
Was there any damage to your natural nails when you took these off? I tried acrylics years ago and when the acrylic came off, my nails were like paper
