Russian manicure with gel polish

A Russian manicure is a technique that deep-cleans the cuticle area, leaving the nail wall precise and tidy. It prepares the nail perfectly and makes the treatment last longer. It is ideal because it gives a cleaner, more precise and more professional result than a traditional manicure.

  2. 02After the nail has been carefully prepared, cleaned and disinfected with the e-file, the surface is perfectly clean and ready for the base coat.
  3. 03Base coat, taken right up to the cuticle, with a mineral base for reinforcement.
  4. 04The result of a Russian manicure: perfectly cleaned nail walls, a crisp, well-kept nail reinforced with the right base for better wear and a clean, precise, long-lasting finish.

Questions

What is a Russian manicure?
A Russian manicure is a very precise preparation technique: it cleans deep around the nail wall and works gently on the cuticles, leaving the surface tidy and perfectly defined. Done properly by a professional it does not damage the natural nail, and it gives a cleaner, longer-lasting result than a traditional manicure. It is ideal before gel polish on a natural nail, or before a gel reconstruction, because the product can be laid closer to the cuticle area — which improves both adhesion and precision. The finish is a more elegant, even and professional manicure.
How long does gel polish last?
Typically 2-3 weeks, depending on growth and lifestyle.
Is a Russian manicure suitable for fragile nails?
Yes: the work happens around the nail wall without stressing the plate, and the coverage protects new growth.
