2. Trim the acrylic nails

[{"selector":"#anim-824aeb00-0ab7-406e-9c70-996e1f6584e7","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-f29aa260-9dd3-4e20-afe5-ea394d63a430","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 703.59458%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-ed8be055-d80a-4f97-a187-07ff677e1c7b","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":500,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-32876c2c-b8e7-4d54-b430-46948467a5d6","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 213.04907%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":500,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Begin by trimming the artificial nails as short as possible without harming your natural nails. This will make the removal procedure easier.

3. File the top layer

[{"selector":"#anim-2c29b778-e014-4b6e-8aa2-3f8b923a801a","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-77d72d37-5279-4619-8e01-b6c1886a7fe6","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 721.24156%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-17de11e1-2c92-496e-89ed-a923bd75578f","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":500,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-86637009-506f-4d48-886c-0da10f2130ba","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 220.02578%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":500,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] File the top layer of acrylic nails gently using a coarse nail file. This will let the acetone penetrate more efficiently by breaking down the lustrous top coat.

4. Soak your nails

[{"selector":"#anim-5f2aaa37-d825-4da9-a052-b88faa5a95e5","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-8150b3f2-aa6f-44d3-946c-a7d4e6c45c13","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 677.12401%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-5cab88d5-ae69-4570-9f2f-31fb6aa21cac","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":500,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4c156f07-e729-404c-aaa1-4fa303008547","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 272.22216%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":500,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Soak your nails in a dish of warm, soapy water for approximately 15 minutes. This softens the acrylic.

5. Apply acetone

[{"selector":"#anim-9cfa8186-96c0-4f4c-88fe-34f29a8a4031","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-ad2a601c-c5a8-4fa1-845e-5bbede706548","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 712.41816%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-3460b1dc-c242-423f-9ff7-aeead8bdea0c","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":500,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-c750fd14-3bba-467e-9dcf-a7ef358f84e9","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 216.53746%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":500,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Acetone nail paint remover should be applied on cotton balls or pads. Wrap aluminum foil over your fingers and place a piece on each nail. Allow this to sit for 20-30 minutes.

6. Remove the acrylic

[{"selector":"#anim-14d30737-bb59-4675-ab98-ef8be3322915","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-fb8129a6-e0b8-4883-bb95-c58a353b1660","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 756.53571%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-0f430d77-773b-4904-9067-5cf735cda901","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":500,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-3441ecc5-4016-4fe7-98c3-60956f53b31d","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 186.31685%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":500,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] After soaking, use an orange stick or a cuticle pusher to carefully remove the artificial nails. Be patient and avoid yanking them off since this might cause harm to your natural nails.

7. Moisturize and care for your nails

[{"selector":"#anim-7adfa2ca-b8b3-460a-98d6-43df3110a041","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-38178cc1-4d9d-4069-b66e-fdd78121d8fe","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 373.91964%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":250,"duration":1500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-fe29f5dd-7eb2-4d53-99cb-93b0f2866300","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":500,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-486f024a-af5e-48a1-b392-0975f4b5bb83","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 169.65019%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":500,"duration":1400,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] After removing the artificial nails, carefully wash your hands and use cuticle oil or petroleum jelly to nourish your nails and cuticles. Finish by filing any rough edges on your natural nails.
