When it comes to nail care, there are a variety of techniques and aesthetics that have gained popularity over the years. Russian manicure is one of them. However, Russian nails involve several steps to achieve the desired clean aesthetic look. In this guide, you will learn how Russian manicure is done.
Here is a step-by-step guide to help you understand the detailed process:
Step 1: Nail Prep and Clean
The first step in a Russian manicure or pedicure is to prep the nails by gently removing the existing polish. Use a soft brush to clean the skin around the nails. Don’t forget to remove any dirt or dead skin cells under the nails or around the edges. Our nail prep pads remove dust and oils for a long-lasting, chip-free gel manicure.
Step 2: Cuticle Removal and Nail Buffing
Next, remove the extra skin around the nail bed with an electric nail file. Use the same drill to remove the cuticles under the nail bed for a clean, sharp cut. Prepare the nail bed for buffing by using a nail buffer to remove any ridges or imperfections from the nail surface. This will enhance the natural shine of your nails, giving them a healthy and clean appearance. Step 3: Gently File
Use a fine-grit nail file to shape your nails to your preference. You can choose from a square, oval, almond or any other desired shape. Gently file the edges of your nails, moving in one direction to avoid any damage.
Step 4: Paint Your Nails
Apply your nail polish product of choice. Start with a base coat to protect your nails and be sure to leave no gaps between the skin and the nail.
Step 5: Hydrate and Moisturize
To complete the Russian manicure, apply a cuticle oil or moisturizer to nourish the nails and surrounding skin. This helps maintain the health and strength of the nails, preventing dryness and brittleness.
