To remove bio gel nails at home, you can follow the steps below:
Materials needed:
- Acetone
- Cotton balls or cotton pads
- Aluminum foil
- Nail buffer or nail file
- Cuticle stick
- Cuticle oil (optional)
Steps:
- Buff the top layer of the nail polish with a nail file.
- Soak cotton balls or pads in acetone and place them on your nails. Wrap each finger with aluminum foil to hold the cotton balls in place.
- Leave the cotton balls on for about 10-15 minutes to allow the acetone to break down the gel polish.
- Remove the foil and cotton balls, and use a cuticle stick to gently scrape off the gel polish.
- If the gel polish doesnt come off easily, you can use a nail buffer or file to gently remove the remaining layers.
- Apply cuticle oil to moisturize your nails.
Positive aspects of this method include that it is relatively easy and inexpensive to do at home. Acetone is an effective solvent for removing gel polish, and the use of aluminum foil helps to trap in heat and speed up the process. However, acetone can be harsh on the skin and nails, so it is important to moisturize your nails with cuticle oil after removing the gel polish.
Negative aspects of this method include that it can be time-consuming and messy, and the use of acetone can be irritating to the skin and nails. Additionally, if you have sensitive skin or allergies, you may want to avoid using acetone and try a gentler method instead.
