She picked off that gel polish. Probably with her teeth. The peeling skin is likely a combination of her pulling the skin back in hang nail like strips and a reaction. I'm sorry, but that's a bad polish job and poor cuticle work to begin with.looks like a reaction as her skin is inflamed around the area too ? or she could be a picker

The OP said her colleague had done these nails so I'm guessing it isn't a 'friend' kinda situation.If her "friend" is doing it, if the friend is unqualified (& by the look of this job I'm assuming she is no professional!) the products she is using probably aren't pro. I dont think she's a picker, how can she be the index finger is still intact! To me it looks like over sensitisation to product therefore allergic reaction due to overexposure of product, this is worsened especially if the cuticle area is flooded with product & it continually touches the skin. The moral of the story..... She needs to Stop cutting corners & get a professional in for the job!!
This is great advise...this type of reaction is a warning.It's more than likely the prep products she's reacting to, so your cuticle away or scrub fresh.
to be honest , i would not perform any further treatments on this client. Its obvious that she is having a reaction of some kind, and this reaction is only to get worse. To perform another manicure on her knowing she will have a reaction is gross negligence (or at least it will be viewed that way by your insurance company) and you will not be covered if she ever decided to take it further (and she has 3 years to decide this).
You should refuse treatment and send her to her doctor who can maybe find out what she is reacting to.
