The ultimate guide to apply and remove the gel nail polish Tips and the right products to apply and remove the semi-permanent gel polish at home

In the era of social distancing and "lockdowns", booking an appointment at the beauty salon to apply (or just remove) gel polish is no longer as simple and immediate as it used to be. Domestic life has become routine and we are getting used to a sort of "second life" in which it is pleasant to discover and learn new ways of doing things so as not to lose our habits. If you are therefore a lover of hands that are always in order and well cared for, you must know that semi-permanent nail polish is the one for you: a mix between a classic manicure with nail polish (which however fades in a short time) and a reconstruction (which sometimes proves too invasive for the nails). In fact, unlike the gel, the semi-permanent is much more delicate but still lasting.

After the exposure time in which the nail polish remover penetrating the nail polish will have softened it, free one finger at a time and gently remove the gel polish residues with an orange wood stick. Finally, with a cardboard nailbrush, file the surface of the nail and apply an oil for nails.
