There are multiple methods for removing gel nail polish, each with its own characteristics and applicable scenarios. Here are some common methods for removing gel nail polish:
1、 Using professional products
Jia oil makeup remover: Jia oil makeup remover is a product specifically designed to remove Jia oil. It contains a special dissolving agent that can quickly dissolve Jia oil gel. When using, pour nail polish remover onto a cotton pad, then apply the cotton pad to the nails and rub vigorously a few times. The gel nail polish will quickly dissolve and wipe off. However, it is important to avoid letting makeup remover come into contact with the skin to prevent allergies or irritation.
Special adhesive/stripping agent for gel nail polish: These products are also special solvents that can effectively remove gelish nail polish. When using, pour the adhesive or stripping agent onto a cotton pad, apply it to the nails, wait for a period of time (usually 5-10 minutes), and gently scrape it off with a cotton swab or nail scraper. Similarly, avoid contact with skin or eyes when using.
2、 Physical methods
Warm water soaking: suitable for some shallow gelish nail polish. Pour warm water into a container and soak the nails in the water for about 5-10 minutes. The nail polish will be softened by soaking, and then it can be easily wiped off with a cotton swab or nail scraper. But the soaking time should not be too long to prevent the nails from becoming soft or damaged.
Polishing machine/sanding strip: For stubborn gelish nail polish, a polishing machine or sanding strip can be used for polishing. But this method causes significant damage to the nails and is not recommended for frequent use.
3、Other methods
Nail polish remover/nail polish remover: These products typically contain chemical components that can soften gelish nail polish. When using, follow the product instructions, such as polishing the sealing layer first, then applying nail polish remover or wrapping the nail polish remover, waiting for a period of time (such as 5-8 minutes), and then using a steel pusher or sponge file to remove the gel fingernail polish.
Adhesive remover: Similar to nail polish remover, but may focus more on breaking down the bond between nail polish and nails. When using, apply adhesive remover to the base of the nail, and then use tools such as a small steel push or cotton swab to peel off the gel fingernail polish from the nail.
4、 Precautions
When using any product that removes nail polish adhesive, avoid letting the product come into contact with the skin or eyes to avoid discomfort.
After removing the gel fingernail polish, remember to keep your nails clean and moisturized to avoid any damage caused by residual gel fingernail polish.
If you are unsure about your operation or worried about damaging your nails, it is recommended to go to a professional nail salon for removal.
In summary, there are various methods for removing gel nail polish, and the appropriate method can be chosen according to individual circumstances and needs. But no matter which method is used, attention should be paid to protecting the safety of nails and skin.
