How to use the Glossy Booster Duo?

3-step glossy nail routine:

  1. Glycolic Nail Exfoliator: apply the product evenly on the bare nail surface, then massage until fully absorbed to gently exfoliate. The formula naturally absorbs, no need to rinse or wipe off.
  2. Pale pink side of the nail buffer: gently buff the nail in a perpendicular motion, always in the same direction, to smooth the surface and blur imperfections.
  3. Bright pink side of the nail buffer: polish the nail surface to seal the keratin layers and boost shine.

Perform the routine 2 to 3 times per week for a long-lasting glossy nail effect.

For the best results every time, replace your nail buffer regularly, it naturally wears out over time.

(Suitable from age 12)

FAQs

Les questions les plus fréquemment posées par nos utilisatrices et notre communauté !

Can I use the Glossy Booster Duo every day?

It is recommended to use the Glossy Booster Duo 2 to 3 times a week, to preserve the nail’s natural balance while maximizing the benefits.

Can I use the routine on polished nails?

No, this routine is designed to be performed exclusively on bare nails. The Glycolic peel needs to penetrate the nail surface, and the buffer works directly on the nail plate. It's essential to remove any polish before using the Glossy Booster Duo.

Do I need to remove the Glycolic peel before applying a base coat or nail polish?

No removal is necessary. Its gel texture absorbs quickly without leaving any residue.
