What do you need?

  • File
  • goat's leg
  • Foil
  • Alcohol (70%)/Acetone
  • Cotton pad

Good to know in advance

  • If you want a new color quickly, please do not try to pull your nails off. This will cause a lot of damage to the health of your nail plate and will make painting more difficult in the future, because you will reduce the quality of your nails.
  1. Start by filing your nails. File off about 80% of the Dipping Powder. Do this at a slow pace so you don't damage your natural nail.
  2. Dip the acetone in the cotton pads. You don't have to be stingy with the acetone, the cotton pads should be soaked. Wrap the cotton pads around the nail and let them 'soak' for about 15 minutes.
  3. As an extra step, you can also wrap foil around the cotton pads. This will wrap the cotton pads more firmly around your nail. Also with foil, let the nails soak for about 15 minutes.
  4. The 15 minutes are up and now use a (metal) hoof stick to scrape off the Dipping Powder.
  5. Wash your hands and use cuticle oil to promote the health of your nails.

The Dipping Powder is removed, but we still recommend washing your hands to remove any remaining Dipping Powder. Finally, use the cuticle oil to maintain the health of your cuticles.
