Nail Filer: –
A nail file is a vital tool in any gel manicure enthusiast’s toolkit, but how exactly do you use a nail file to achieve a finish without damaging your natural nails.
When to Use a Nail File with Gel Polish:
Shaping: Before applying gel polish, you can use a nail file to gently shape your nails to your desired look. Makemynails offers a variety of nail file to choose from. A finer grit file is ideal for shaping natural nails and gel polish.
Minor Adjustments: Even after shaping before polish, you might need slight adjustments after applying gel polish. A very fine grit nail file can be used to buff away any minor bumps or unevenness on the gel polish surface.
How to Use a Nail File with Gel Polish:
Always use a light touch. Gel polish is more delicate than regular polish, so avoid applying excessive pressure.
File in one direction. Filing back and forth can create ridges in the nail plate. Use long, smooth strokes in one direction only.
Less is more. Start with minimal filing and assess if further shaping or buffing is needed.
