One thing I wish I knew when I started doing nails! 💅 The learning process can be frustrating, but having reliable products and the right setup can make a difference. Keep practicing, trust the process, and give yourself room to improve. 🤍

If your gel polish keeps lifting or your natural nails are damaged after removal — it’s not the product. It’s the technique.

Your natural nails should still be healthy after taking off enhancements. That starts with the right prep and the right products used correctly.

Ultra Bond acid-free primer, a proper base coat, and a gel polish formula that doesn’t fight you — that’s the foundation of a service your clients come back for.

Products used:
— MakarttPro Ultra Bond (Acid-Free)
— MakarttPro Base Coat
— Sheer Cappuccino Gel Polish 083

If your nails look flat after you file, the apex is usually missing.

The apex is the highest point of the nail, It's not just for looks. It carries the stress, so the nail is less likely to crack or break.

• Use your second bead as the apex bead
• Place it slightly behind center, toward the cuticle
• Build height, don't spread the product
• Shape it up gently. Aggressive swiping flattens it before it sets
• Check from the side. You want a gentle arc from cuticle to tip

Save this for your next set What part of the apex gives you the most trouble?
