How to remove liquid false nail glue without damaging your natural nails
False nails glued with liquid glue are an excellent solution for a stylish and long-lasting manicure. But the time always comes when you want to remove them... And if you don't use the right method, you risk damaging or weakening your natural nails.
Don't panic: here are simple and safe steps to remove the glue while taking care of your hands.
đž Step 1: Prepare for removal
First and foremost, do not attempt to rip off your false nails. This could tear off layers of your natural nail.
Gather a bowl, warm (but not burning hot) water, a little mild soap or oil (sweet almond, olive, or coconut), and a wooden stick (cuticle pusher).
đž Step 2: The warm soapy water bath
Fill your bowl with lukewarm to warm water and add soap or a few drops of oil.
Soak your fingers for 10 to 15 minutes.
The heat and mixture will soften the glue and gradually detach the false nails.
đž Step 3: Gently remove
After the bath, use a wooden stick to gently lift the edges of the false nail.
If you feel resistance, re-soak your nails in the water for a few minutes: gentleness is key.
Absolutely avoid pulling or forcing.
đž Step 4: Remove glue residue
There may be some glue residue left on your natural nails.
Soak a cotton pad with a little non-acetone nail polish remover or vegetable oil.
Gently scrape until all residue is gone.
đž Step 5: Nourish and protect
After removal, your nails need comfort.
Apply a nourishing oil to your cuticles and nails.
Massage gently to stimulate circulation and strengthen keratin.
Finish with a moisturizing cream for soft hands.
