Here are some of the frequently asked questions

What are hang nails and what product would be the best to clear them?
Hangnails are very common and can be caused by several things. Many people experience hangnails when their skin is dry such as during the drier, colder days of winter or with repeated hand washings.
Hangnails can also be caused by trauma such as a paper cut or excessive finger picking. Those who have a habit of picking their nails and the surrounding areas are more likely to get hangnails than those who do not.
The best would be our Cuticle Salve. It contains the perfect moisturising blend of 3 reviving oils - jojoba oil, sweet almond, castor oil. Each natural oil has been selected to offer caring benefits to encourage hydrated cuticles and lateral side walls. Gently massage the oil into the nail and cuticle everday for maximum care and repair.
What is the difference between the strengthener and hardener?
The strengthening and peeling nail serum, which is also our strengthener is formulated for moderately weak and peeling nails that would like to increase their flexibilty.
Whereas, the protein nail rescue is formulated for brittle and severly damaged nails that would require hardening in order to overcome breakage.
How long should I use the products before any noticeable change?
It all depends on the extent of damage.
Nails with less damage will certainly take a shorter time than nails that have extreme damage.
Nails normally take time to grow that is between 90-120 days to fully grow out a damaged nail.
On average we say you should notice a change atleast after a month with consistent use.
My Oil Has Changed Color. It Looks Pale Compared To the golden color it was when I received it.
Sunlight causes the oil to change colors. The process is called Photo Bleaching. This usually starts to happen within 6-12 months. It’s best to store larger sizes of the oil in a dark space, like the refrigerator or freezer. Avoid storing your oil in the bathroom near the shower or in your car.

Our goal? To give you a toolkit that ensures your nails stay on the "healthy" track while looking absolutely smashing.
How often should I be using the nail strengtheners for maximum nail health?
For those on a mission to fortify their nails, consistency is key. Aim for several rounds of nail strengthener action each week or just follow the instructions on the product. The end goal? Giving those weak or thin nails the push they need to become resilience pros and contribute to your overall nail health.
So, what's the deal with your nail polishes and art supplies that's unlike others?

How do I battle nail brittleness and show my nails some extra TLC?
Brittle nails can be a real buzzkill, often linked to aging, dehydration, or too much time in chemical and watery environments. Fight back with some nail strengthener action and a healthy dose of moisturizing products. And when water's involved, remember to put on those gloves. Oh, and easy on the polish remover, it's all about striking the right balance for your nail health.
How long can I expect to flaunt chip-free nails with your nail polishes?
We've engineered our nail polishes to be your wingmen for the long haul. You can strut around with chip-free confidence for a solid 7 days, as long as you apply them right and your nails are all set. And if you're a fan of gel polish, get ready to enjoy 10-14 days of chipping-proof glory once it's locked in by a UV or LED lamp. As for the specifics, those can waver depending on the state of your nails and your day-to-day adventures.
Are your nail care solutions the safe haven for sensitive skin or allergies?
We've put in the work to ensure our nail care products are easy on the skin, steering clear of harsh elements. But we get it, everyone's skin has its quirks. Test the waters with a patch test. Just a dab of the product should do. And if you're in the realm of acrylics or gels and your skin's feeling extra sensitive, a chat with us could provide some peace of mind.
How can I spruce up my nail care regimen for those Hollywood-worthy nails?

Oh, and don't forget to unleash your inner artist with our nail art supplies. With all these moves, you'll be flaunting nails that demand the spotlight.

Each collection's designed to capture the latest nail art vibes and introduce innovative polish shades. Think of it as your ticket to a nail care journey that's both stylish and thrilling.
How does regular polish differ from gel polish in the grand scheme of nail health?
When it comes to nail health, your choice of polish plays a starring role. Regular polish takes the classic route, drying through evaporation. On the other hand, gel polish needs a UV or LED lamp to lock in its magic, delivering extended wear and dodging those pesky chips. But keep in mind, gel polish takes a bit of soaking to say goodbye, unlike regular polish.

What are the best nail care tips for beginners?
Start simple. Keep nails clean for good nail hygiene, file in one direction using proper nail filing techniques, and choose a shape that suits your hands with careful nail shaping.
How should I care for my cuticles without causing damage?
Avoid cutting live tissue. Moisturizing daily using the Jada Cuticle Salve, gentle use of a cuticle pusher, and hydrating after washing keeps the area healthy. Finish with a small amount of hand moisturizer.
What tools help me file safely and smoothly?
Use a Jada nano glass nail file for precise shaping and a nail buffer to smooth ridges lightly so you do not thin the plate.
Do I really need a base and top coat?
Yes. A base coat improves adhesion and protects the nail, while a top coat seals color. Strategic polish layering and high quality polish pigments improve coverage and shine.
How can I dry polish faster and reduce smudges?
Apply thin coats and allow proper polish drying time. Finish with quick dry drops to reduce surface tack.
What is the safest way to remove polish?
Choose an acetone free remover when possible and follow polish remover safety guidelines, such as ventilating the area and avoiding prolonged soaking.
Why does my manicure chip or look uneven?
Thin, even coats help prevent polish chipping. Roll bottles to reduce polish streaks and avoid shaking which can introduce polish bubbles. Limit water exposure to reduce polish fading.
How do I cure gel color correctly at home?
Follow the brand’s gel polish curing time and use the correct uv lamp or led lamp specified by the manufacturer.
What is the safest way to take off gel at home?
Use a controlled gel removal soak off method with gentle filing of the topcoat, protect skin with nail protection gloves, and work slowly for nail breakage prevention.
Should I test new products before a full manicure?
Yes. Perform a patch test on a small area, especially if you focus on sensitive skin care or prefer hypoallergenic products.
How do I keep nails hydrated and resilient?
Build nail hydration into daily care. For fragile nails, follow structured brittle nails care, targeted peeling nails care, and gradual soft nails support routines.
When is it better to see a professional versus DIY?
Complex designs and troubleshooting are ideal for a salon manicure or salon pedicure. For maintenance, a careful home manicure plus timely professional advice works well.
