Eight nail concerns, each with the routine Mavala prescribe for it. Add the whole routine in one click, or pick up the single product you are missing.

Post artificial nails

Acrylics and gels come off and leave the nail thinned, rough and often tender, with the cuticle and contour damaged by the removal as much as by the wear.

Complete routine, 5 essential products
Once a week, ideally after a bath or shower
  1. Remove all traces of nail polish and oil from the nails.
  2. Apply a generous layer of Cuticle Remover around each nail using the brush.
  3. Leave for one minute. Then, using a cotton-wrapped manicure stick, gently push back the cuticles with a rolling motion towards the nail contour to lift away dead skin. Do not use metal tools.
  4. Rinse thoroughly with soapy water before continuing with your manicure.
Then
  1. Phase 1: Apply a layer of Nylon Fibres formula to clean, oil free nails and let it dry.
  2. Phase 2: Apply a layer of Sealer to even out the surface. Add a second coat if the nail is very uneven.
Every evening
  1. Gently massage NAILACTAN into the base of each nail using small circular motions, until absorbed.
  2. Brush Cuticle Oil around the nail contour and massage it in with your thumb, fingertips included.
When removing polish
  1. Soak a cotton pad, press it onto the nail and hold until the polish softens, then wipe.
  2. Repeat for darker or glittered shades. Acetone free removers work more slowly by design.
Pro Tips
  • Particularly suitable for nails that feel thin or tender after artificial nail removal.
  • Cuticle Oil can be applied over nail polish without affecting the polish.
  • Nail Shield does not harden the nail; it forms a protective barrier over the nail surface.
