The nightly routine
Clean, dry, file, apply, seal the edges, sleep, remove in the morning.
- · Wash and dry the nail and surrounding skin thoroughly, the patch will not stick to a damp nail.
- · Trim and gently file the nail so the surface is as flat and even as possible.
- · Peel one patch from the backing, handling it by the edge.
- · Place the patch over the nail and press down from the centre outwards so the edges seal.
- · Leave the patch on overnight, roughly six to eight hours.
- · Peel the patch away in the morning, wash and dry the nail, and dispose of the used patch.
- · Repeat daily with a fresh patch, one pack covers a 21-day routine.
Preparation that matters
A bare, dry, flat nail. No cream, no oil, no varnish, and no application straight out of the bath.
If a patch keeps lifting
File the nail flatter, dry the surrounding skin more thoroughly, and press from the centre outwards for a few seconds longer.
Frequently asked
What if I miss a night?
Carry on the next night. Consistency over weeks matters more than a perfect record.
Can I shower with a patch on?
No. Apply after your evening wash and remove in the morning.
