Paste with a buffer for Japanese manicure

Japanese manicure is suitable for most nail types – split, brittle, and slow-growing nails. Since the principle of this technique is nail polishing, it is not suitable for very thin nails. The main ingredients are keratin, vitamins A and E, and beeswax. The treatment supports blood circulation and nail growth. After application, a protective layer forms on the surface of the nails, which smooths and nourishes them. The difference is visible immediately after the first application – the nails gain a very high shine that lasts for almost 2 weeks. Application time is approximately 30 minutes. It is recommended to repeat every 2–3 weeks.

PROCEDURE

Before applying the treatment, it is necessary to remove nail polish and disinfect the nails.

• Using a double-sided pink-green file, smooth the surface of the nails. This removes their natural shine – the nails should be completely matte.

• Using a spatula, apply a small amount of paste onto the entire surface of the buffer.

• Polish the nails using one-directional strokes until a high shine is achieved.

• Proceed in the same way when applying the powder. Using a spatula, apply a small amount of powder onto the entire surface of the buffer. Then polish the nails again using one-directional strokes.

RECOMMENDATION

If the client has thinned nails, the nail surface should not be further smoothed – it is sufficient to apply only the paste and powder. This also applies to children’s nails.

When nails grow out, only the newly grown part should be smoothed, where the paste is applied. The polishing powder is then applied over the entire nail surface. If the treatment has not been used for a longer period, it is necessary to repeat all three basic steps and apply both paste and powder over the entire nail.

The manufacturer does not recommend applying the treatment immediately after removing artificial nails or in case of damage to the nail bed. Once the nails are in good condition, application can begin.
