Shellac Removal Procedure

1. First, wash your hands or feet thoroughly with soap if you intend to remove a pedicure.

2. Take cotton mugs and divide them into two parts, then each part into halves. It is convenient to wrap your fingertips with these half-discs.

3. Moisten cotton pads with liquid and wrap them around your fingertips.

4. Foil wraps over each cotton-wrapped fingertip on top.

5. Wrapped fingers should be left for 10-15 minutes.

6. During this time, gently massage the tips of your fingers wrapped in foil.

7. Remove the cotton foil from your fingers. Shellac during this time should peel off and be easily removed with a solid film. If it has not peeled off completely, then the remnants can be removed with an orange stick.

8. Then you can slightly equalize the shape of the nail and sand it a little.

9. It will be very useful to apply oil on the nails, rubbing it lightly with massage movements.

In general, the procedure is not more difficult and takes little time.
