Nail Wipes

[vicky]

Can anyone help..!
I use Star Nail Wipes and since the Company is in change over its been really hard to get hold of them. What other Nail Wipes do you use because some of the ones iv used are useless, they leave bits on the nail or they rip apart..

Thanks

Hi Vicky,

depending on where you buy other stuff from - check out their nail wipes - Designer Nails do their Nail Technicians choice gauze wipes. www.nailsplusbeauty.com do their 2x2" square wipes which are also good. Wholesalers do "Caress" nail remover pads I think they are called. I know alot of techs like the paper ones that come on a roll of about 500 but I must say I hate them - they fall apart and leave you with varnish remover or scrubfresh on your own nails.

I also like the plastic backed "Hands Down" pads for Scrubfresh and remover but they work out a tad more expensive, so I use a mixture of both.

The best ones I have ever used are the Creative lint free pads (also great for cleaning your brush whilst applying L&P put a little scrubfresh on it first. or the ones called "hands down pads" (they are backed with plastic and perfect for removing enamel, oil and varnish. also great when using u.v gel too) also available through Creative Nail Design. I didn't like star, they wern't cotton and I couldnt controll them ,they slipped alot when i removed oil during prep.

I prefer the gauze like wipe, i buy "Non woven sawbs" by Bastos Viegas, a portuguese medical supplier wich also sells abroad. I love them because they are very soft, very cheap, leave nothing on the nails and absorb just the right amout of polish remover/gel wipe. The paper wipes for example, need too much gel wipe to do a goos job and i used to feel i was wasting a lot of money there!

I use Cesars Secrets wipes they are lint free and really good value

Fellow geeks previously advised me to use the Creative ones also, but when I got to ExCel last month, they'd run out :cry: . I shall be looking out for them again at Olympia :biggrin: .

INM's (although the code in Ellison's mail order book makes me think they may be Designer Nails??)..."Nail Techs Choice".....brilliant cus there are no fluffy bits left behind and no breaking up into a mushy mess!
Like Fiona...I found the benefits of "hands down" but I too, find em a bit costly....so I mix the two!

 

[suey]

I only use the hands down wipes when i am removing polish, else i tend to get covered in it, don't know how, just clever i guess :o

I also use the nail techs choice gauze and 2 x 2 lint free wipes

I use IBD nail wipes - They are little foam type hex shaped pads. Because they are foam there is absolutely NO risk of any lint or anything coming off them. Great little things. Only thing is you have to store them out of the light otherwise they will turn yellow. I just use a white china container with a lid on it.
