Aftercare

Congratulations on Your Fabulous Nails from ELLE LA FEMME!

Now that you have nails to show off, here are our ultimate aftercare tips to keep them looking flawless:

  • Always use non-acetone polish remover for enhancements. Acetone can weaken or damage your nails.
  • Golden Rule: Nails are jewels, not tools! Avoid using them to open cans, scratch surfaces, or pick at objects.
  • Use a soft nail brush daily to prevent bacteria buildup.
  • After applying makeup or tanning products, scrub gently with white toothpaste for a quick refresh.
  • Wash hands thoroughly after cleaning or cooking.

Book a rebalancing appointment every 3–4 weeks at ELLE LA FEMME. This prevents lifting, breakage, and keeps nails strong and beautiful.

  • Wear cotton-lined rubber gloves when cleaning, gardening, or using harsh chemicals.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to water (e.g., long baths or swimming) as it can weaken enhancements.
  • Contact ELLE LA FEMME for repairs—don’t tear nails off!
  • If removing at home:
    1. File the top coat to break the seal.
    2. Wrap nails in acetone-soaked cotton pads and foil, or soak in pure acetone for 40 minutes.
    3. Gently remove softened product—never force it.

Picking can cause lifting and invite bacteria. Stress, illness, or medications can affect adhesion monitor your nails closely.

Skip band-aids or glue! Contact ELLE LA FEMME immediately to prevent moisture and bacteria from getting trapped.

  • Apply cuticle oil daily to keep nails flexible and prevent dryness.
  • Use a hand cream after washing hands to maintain skin and nail health.
  • Eat a balanced diet rich in biotin, protein, and vitamins.
  • Stay hydrated—water helps nails stay strong and resilient.

Don’t expose nails to direct heat (e.g., hair dryers, ovens) for long periods, as it can weaken enhancements.
