When those worry-free few weeks have passed, however, you begrudgingly realize it’s time to take them off. Peeling off gel nails leaves you with rigged nails underneath, which are not a good look.

Luckily, there are ways to get the gels off at home without having to worry about your nails suffering from the dreaded peel.

Step One: Buffer

First, gently buffer the top of your nails to remove the topcoat seal on the gels.

Step Two: Nail Polish Wrap

Cut your cotton pads into ten small squares and soak them in an acetone-based nail polish remover. Next, apply each to a nail and use tin foil to secure them in place. Wait 10-15 minutes for the acetone to work its magic.

Step Three: Peel Away

By now, your gels will be softened and you should be able to peel or slide them off with ease.

Step Four: Replenish

Your gels have been effortlessly removed, but it’s time to nourish them. Soak them in a replenishing oil such as almond oil to help them make a full recovery.

Step Five: More gels!
