I am still fairly new to doing gel nail polish but it's taking me an hour and a half to do file, cuticle work and gel polish. Is this too long? How long does it take other people? X
A wet manicure would be something like a spa mani where the nails are left soaking in water for any period of time. Using cuticle remover and then giving the nails a quick swipe with a damp pad to neutralise is perfectly acceptable in a dry mani. You won't be using enough water to make the nail plate swell so it's perfectly safe to use.I don't use cuticle remover as I have been told to do dry cuticle work and worry that if I use cuticle remover and then get the nails wet to wipe it off that the nails soak up moisture? Is a bit of cuticle remover okay for me to use on a tough cuticle without affecting the application of polish?
It may depend on the gel you use, the gel polish which support LED curing will be faster, only couple minutes.
