I could wash dishes, type, and work without worrying about my nails! Then came week three and as per usual I was itching for a change. Unfortunately the tech failed to tell me that the manicure would be nearly impossible to get off (I had to buy pure acetone and a nail file) and that when I did finally manage to find my nail bed again\u2026 it would be virtually destroyed.

And there\u2019s some direct evidence that the UV light exposure you get from nail procedures is potentially dangerous. Dr. Heidi Waldorf, Director of Laser and Cosmetic Dermatology at The Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York, told us, \u201cThere are two reported cases of skin cancers of the hand that were associated with regular UV nail dryer use.\u201d A study commissioned by CND (yes, the nail polish company that makes the gel polish, Shellac) refuted the results of that study, but Dr. Waldorf still recommends taking precautions. \u201cThe problem is that UV damage is cumulative.  So if you use the UV dryers now and again, it may not add up to much,\u201d she said. \u201cHowever, if you start with them on a regular basis in your 20\u2032s or 30\u2032s and continue, the risk will be higher.\u201d<br \/>\nTo avoid any unnecessary exposure, Dr. Waldorf recommends you apply a water resistant sunscreen before you go for a treatment. \u201cHowever, remember that it will not be fully effective\u2013part of the gel manicure process is cleaning the nails and therefore the skin around the nails and the fingers with  acetone,\u201d she told us. \u201cIf they have to remove the prior gel manicure, fingers are soaked in acetone for at least 10 minutes.  No sun protective product will last through it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/22080257\/argan-oil-hands-550x310.jpg\"><img  loading=\"lazy\"  decoding=\"async\"  src=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/22080257\/argan-oil-hands-550x310-80x45.jpg\"  alt=\"\"  title=\"argan-oil-hands-550x310\"  width=\"550\"  height=\"310\"  class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-15203 pk-lqip pk-lazyload\"  data-pk-sizes=\"auto\"  data-ls-sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\"  data-pk-src=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/22080257\/argan-oil-hands-550x310.jpg\"  data-pk-srcset=\"https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/22080257\/argan-oil-hands-550x310.jpg 550w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/22080257\/argan-oil-hands-550x310-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/22080257\/argan-oil-hands-550x310-380x214.jpg 380w, https:\/\/media.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/afm-style-files\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/22080257\/argan-oil-hands-550x310-80x45.jpg 80w\" ><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Dry, brittle nails post gel is not an uncommon complaint apparently. Jin Soon Choi, an expert manicurist and designer fave who just launched her own line of nail polishes, isn\u2019t a huge fan of gels. \u201cI don\u2019t like the fact that they dry out the nail bed tremendously which, over time, makes your nails very brittle which makes them break off easily,\u201d she told us.<br \/>\nHowever, she acknowledges that the durability is definitely a plus. Both she and Dr. Waldorf recommend saving gels for vacations or special occasions. And to prevent your nails from becoming a total mess, Choi told us, \u201cBe sure to moisturize your nails and cuticles with Vitamin E oil constantly while you have gel on your nail.\u201d To protect from the harsh, stripping effect of the pure acetone, use cuticle oil first to protect skin, then soak your tips afterwards in a bowl of vitamin E oil or coconut oil for some quick rehydration.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>By Kristianne Young<br \/>\nSource: Fashionista.com <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I am one who has always been proud of my strong, fast growing nails, having swore off acrylics&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":15201,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[3891,3890,3137,576,698],"class_list":{"0":"post-15200","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-scottsdale-beauty-buzz","8":"tag-beauty-how-to","9":"tag-gel-manicure","10":"tag-nail-trends","11":"tag-phoenix-fashion","12":"tag-scottsdale-fashion","13":"cs-entry","14":"cs-video-wrap"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Nail Talk: Gel Manicures<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"I am one who has always been proud of my strong, fast growing nails, having swore off acrylics after the age of 17 (and my last prom).
