How To Remove Walmart Fake Nails |
Step 1: Gather Your Squad (of Supplies)
- Warm water: Your bathtub, a sink filled with your favorite show playing in the background, or even a bowl big enough for your majestic hands will do.
- Olive oil: Because who doesn't love a relaxing spa treatment, even if it's happening in your kitchen?
- Nail clippers (optional): For those stubborn nails that just won't take a hint.
- Orangewood stick or cotton swab: To gently coax the remaining glue off your natural nails.
- Nail file: To buff away any leftover adhesive and get your nails prepped for their next adventure.
- Your favorite lotion: Because after this ordeal (okay, maybe not an ordeal, but hey, it's an adventure!), your hands deserve some pampering.
Step 2: The Great Soakening
Pour yourself a warm bath (or fill your sink/bowl), add a generous amount of olive oil, and luxuriate in the knowledge that you're about to have flawless natural nails again. Soak your majestic fingers for 10-15 minutes, letting the warm water and oil work their magic on the glue.
