The little details

  1. 01 · Soften without scraping

    Wash hands, pat dry and massage a little moisturiser or cuticle oil around the nail folds.

  2. 02 · Leave the seal intact

    Do not cut, dig under or forcefully push living cuticles back. Skip the nippers shown in the reference; clip only a loose hangnail with a clean tool if needed.

  3. 03 · Prepare for colour

    Shape the free edge gently and remove oily residue from the nail plate before polish, following its instructions.
