Russian Manicure Prep Work
A Russian manicure is a popular nail prep technique that involves removing excess skin and cuticle around the nail bed for a clean, polished look. Here's how to perform a Russian manicure:
- Soften the cuticles: Soak your nails in warm water for a few minutes to soften the cuticles.
- Push back the cuticles: Use a cuticle pusher to gently push back the cuticles.
- Trim the cuticles: Carefully trim any excess cuticle skin with cuticle nippers.
- Clean up the nail bed: Use a nail file to clean up any remaining cuticle skin or debris around the nail bed.
- Buff the nails: Buff the nails to remove any shine and create a matte surface for better adhesion of the gel polish.
