Sugarcoat It

Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water, and use the included Prep Pad to remove any oils from your nails. Make sure you completely push back your cuticles as well.

First, apply an ample amount of cuticle oil. After peeling off a corner along the cuticle line, gently roll the strips off. Don’t rush with this! It helps to apply additional oil to the fingers you’re using to roll the strips off as well. The more lubrication, the better!

Don’t expose your nails to household cleansers or harsh chemicals! Nails are more permeable than skin. Even prolonged exposure to water can dry out your nails and hands. Always wear gloves when cleaning, and apply hand lotion after you wash or wet your hands. (Just make sure to stay away from water and lotion for a couple of hours after GLOSS application.)
