    Remove product from skin

    Even though we always say you should be careful with your Gel Polish so you don’t touch the skin, we know accidents can happen. That’s why our Micro Brushes are a fantastic tool. If it happens that you’ve hit the skin around your nail, you need to remove it as quickly as possible before curing your nail. Simply dip your Micro Brush in our Cleanser and clean the skin you touched. You may need to repeat this twice to make sure all product is removed from your skin. If you have our Pump Dispenser, you can press it down slowly so the Cleanser collects in the bowl-shaped top, making it easy to dip your Micro Brush into the Cleanser.

    Applying stickers

    When you use stickers for nail design, you can advantageously use our Micro Brushes to press the sticker into place. This way you avoid transferring oils and dust to the nail before you are finished with your nail design. It extends the durability of your manicure, as you maintain a clean area throughout the entire nail treatment.

    Remove dust from the cuticle

    When you prepare your nails before applying products, dust particles will naturally settle on your nail plate, and you need to remove them before applying your products. The dust that gathers around the cuticle edge can be difficult to remove with a Lint-Free Pad. Here you can advantageously use a Micro Brush. Dip your Micro Brush in Cleanser and run it around the cuticle edge to clean the nail of dust and oils around the cuticles. You can then easily finish by wiping the rest of the nail with a Lint-Free Pad soaked in Cleanser.

    Clean up nail art

    If you’re one of those who dive into nail art, here’s a tip for you. When creating designs, it’s a good idea to keep a Micro Brush ready. You don’t actually need to remove everything and start over if you’re not satisfied with the result. Simply dip your Micro Brush lightly in Cleanser and adjust or shape your design to the desired form by removing the unwanted parts. You can think of it a bit like an eraser. It may be necessary to use more than one Micro Brush. This tip is especially useful if you’re trying a French tip for the first time and it ends up a little too wide or uneven.
