EMMA V.S.G.P. Step by Step Removal & Application

1. Gel Polish Removal

• Have client wash their hands with soap and water and towel dry.
• Buff off EMMA V.S.G.P. Top Coat to break seal with a ForPro 180 grit zebra foam board.
• Apply ForPro Expert Moisturizing Removal Wrap Solution to ForPro Expert Gel Polish Remover Wraps.
• Individually wrap the nails by placing under finger with edge of cotton pad underneath the free edge of nail. Fold the cotton pad over the top of nail. Wrap around the finger, ensuring a snug fit. Squeeze top center of foil together to secure.
• Allow the nails to soak for at least 10 minutes. Optional: To help speed process, wrap each hand in ForPro Cozies Liner and insert into ForPro Thermal Mitts.
• Unwrap first finger and use a ForPro Birchwood Stick to gently push the gel color product in the direction of the nail plate growth. Be careful not to scrape away the surface layers of the natural nail plate. If product is having difficulty releasing, make sure you buffed down past EMMA V.S.G.P. Top Coat and re-wrap nails for 5 more minutes.
• Repeat this step on each nail until gel polish residue is completely removed.

Note: Removal time may vary based on application (ie., the cure time that was used, how thick the application (multiple coats) and type of gel polish (glitter)). Cold hands, room or remover solution may also increase the amount of time needed to soak off.

2. Nail Preparation - the key to long wear time. Please read the below steps carefully and follow them thoroughly. Any oil spots or residues left on the nail will cause gel polish to peel off sooner.

• Have client wash their hands with soap and water and towel dry.
• Remove any existing nail color from the natural nail using ForPro Non-Acetone Nail Polish Remover and ForPro Premium Nail Wipes.
• If necessary, trim the length from each nail, using nail clippers.
• Shape the nail edge (tip of the nail) with a soft grit ForPro Foam Board.
• Apply a small amount of EMMA Cuticle Zap evenly around the cuticle of each nail.
• Gently slide a cuticle pusher along the nail plate to lift cuticle.
• Remove any excess EMMA Cuticle Zap from the nail and use a curette to remove the cuticle.
• Clean with soap and water, rinse and towel dry.
• Use a manicure nipper to carefully remove any loose pieces of skin or hangnails. Use a gentle touch and never cut skin as it can lead to infection.

3. Cleanse & Purify

• Apply EMMA Scour Nail Antiseptic Spray to cleanse nails and cuticles.
• Use pusher to push back pterygium and remove all non-living tissue.
• Buff the natural nail plate using ForPro 240g buffer block to remove shine.
• Remove any dust from the nail surface with ForPro Premium Nail Wipe saturated with ForPro 70% Alcohol.
• Apply EMMA Grip Nail Dehydrator to dehydrate the nail plate and create the proper pH for optimal adhesion of base coat and gel polish.
