The best manicure in Alton

A long lasting and effective manicure is a dream for many women. There are many types of manicure, i.e. polish manicure, hybrid manicure, gel manicure, acrylic manicure. The main differences between them are types of products which are used to perform the treatment and durability of manicure. Alton is a place with many salons, which offer different types of manicure. At be Skin Aware we offer a naked manicure and gel manicure.

Naked manicure

Naked manicure is a regular manicure with nail strengthener on top. We start the treatment form trimming and shaping your nails. The second step is cuticle work. This stage is very precise to make sure that all excess cuticles are removed and the skin around your nails is perfectly smooth. To achieve desired results we use an e-file with different types of drill bits. The third step of the treatment is an application of lavender and chamomile hand butter for instant hydration. Finally, we apply a nail strengthener to protect the nail plate and give your nails a beautiful glossy effect.

Gel manicure in Alton

Gel manicure is one of the latest trends in nail styling. This type of manicure is addressed to women who appreciate naturalness and long-lasting effect. The biggest advantage of gel manicure is durability as gel manicure stays on your nails for two to three weeks. The high quality of products makes the application and removal procedure much less invasive comparing to acrylic nails or nail extensions. Gel manicure is so gentle that it doesn’t damage the nail plate and its regeneration is not necessary. At be Skin Aware we offer gel manicure on a natural nail plate. We don’t offer acrylic nails and nail extensions as these are very damaging for your natural nails.

We start the treatment from a regular manicure to make sure that your nails are perfectly shaped and all excess cuticles removed. Later we gently buff the nail plate to prepare it for application of primer and base coat. The next step is an application of two coats of coloured gel. We have plenty of fashionable colours, so it’s totally up to you which nail style you choose. To obtain a characteristic gloss and durability of gel manicure we apply a top coat. All layers of gel manicure are set in UV/LED lamp. Finally, we perform a gentle hand massage using a hand butter and apply a cuticle oil.
