What is the best formula to use as both a base and topcoat during a manicure?
- Nailtiques Formula 1.
Is it a problem to remain on Formula 2 after your nails become healthy?
- No. However,
Nailtiques Formula 2 may cause nails to become too hard or brittle. Healthy nails are firm yet flexible. If someone insists on remaining on Formula 2, the protein should not be applied any more than three times per week. Use
Nailtiques Nail Moisturizer and
Nailtiques Oil Therapy in conjunction with Formula 2.
What product would you suggest someone use on nails that have splits down the middle?
- If nails are soft, use Formula 2 in conjunction with Nailtiques Oil Therapy. If nails are hard from using Formula 2, use Formula 1 in conjunction with Nailtiques Nail Moisturizer. If nails are naturally hard, use
Nailtiques Formula 3 in conjunction with Nailtiques Nail Moisturizer.
My nails split and break from being too hard (naturally). Why is it necessary to use Nailtiques Nail Moisturizer if I am using the Oil Therapy?
- Nails that lack moisture or flexibility are targets for splits or breakage. Dryness could prevent the nail protein from promoting beneficial results. Nailtiques Nail Moisturizer promotes moisture and flexibility within the nails. The Oil Therapy seals in moisture to nails. Therefore no matter how often the Oil Therapy is applied, the nails will not soften.
What are the white spots on my nails?
- Some white spots are caused by air pockets where the nail does not adhere to the nail bed. Other white spots are a result of dry nails.
- Solution(s): Use Nailtiques Nail Moisturizer or Oil Therapy on the nail surface as often as possible when there is no protein or polish on the nails. When there is protein or polish on the nails, apply underneath the tip of the nails.
Why are my nails transparent, not white?
- Clear nail tips mostly occur in those who wear gloves and /or have their hands in water a lot; too much moisture.
Does Nailtiques have any product(s) for dry cuticles?
- Yes. Nailtiques has several products that will help replenish lost moisture.
Nailtiques Cuticle & Hand Conditioner,
Cuticle & Skin Gel and Oil Therapy are perfect when used alone or in combination with one another.
Nailtiques Cuticle & Hand Conditioner is a highly concentrated combination of pure aloe and jojoba oils that rehydrates and conditions hands and cuticles. The Cuticle & Skin Gel is a glycerin and aloe based crème ideal for extremely dry or calloused areas; this product is the most beneficial when applied moderately. Nailtiques Oil Therapy is a unique blend of vitamin enriched oils, specifically designed to treat dry, brittle nails, soften cuticles and to replenish the skins natural oils and seals in moisture to nails without making them softer. To enhance the benefits, put on a pair of cotton gloves or socks; the heat will help the crèmes penetrate into the skin.
Does Nailtiques make a formula with no shine/gloss?
- No. However to eliminate the gloss when using Nailtiques nail protein, we recommend that before application apply Nailtiques Oil Therapy to the bare nail, let it absorb, after a few minutes using a tissue wipe off any remaining residue off the nails and then apply the formula. This will give the formula a matte finish.
I only used my Formula Fix once and now my bottle is empty.
- To prevent evaporation of Formula Fix do not leave the dropper inside the bottle. Replace with cap after every use.
How do I remove my artificial nails?
- Soak fingernails in pure acetone. This process may take up to two hours.
