MANICURE Step 24 With warm soapy water, gently wash the nails with a soft brush to remove any grease from the massage medium. It is important to remove excess moisture, debris and product in order to prepare for the nail finish. Buffing can be carried out at this point if a natural finish is required. Buff from the matrix to the free edge to stimulate growth and promote shine. Buffing may also be carried out prior to polish, especially if the nail plate is ridged, as this could help to minimise the ridges. A ridge filler could be used here before a base coat is applied.
Step25 Apply a suitable base coat. Some nailsystems have joint strengtheners or corrective properties within the basecoat. MANICURE
Step26 Apply the varnish of the client’s choice, withclean strokes, without flooding the cuticlearea. MANICURE
