When selecting your cuticle pusher, precision is crucial. The eponychium, a thin layer of skin, features a delicate transitional area where the lateral nail fold begins. This region is highly vascularised and prone to trauma or grazing if accidentally contacted by a nail prep tool with sharp corners.
Such skin abrasions or cuts can significantly impact the longevity of gel manicures, often leading to product running and inevitable lifting. To mitigate these issues, it's essential to handle the proximal nail fold and eponychium with extra care and precision.
Ideally, opt for a cuticle pusher design that mimics the natural structure of the nail plate, promoting smooth movement around the cuticle area. Eliminate sharp corners to ensure even pressure distribution and minimise the risk of accidental injury.
We offer three types of pushers, each tailored to accommodate various nail plate sizes. A helpful tip: Compare the size of your tool to your pinkie for the perfect fit. Remember, it's easier to work with a smaller tool on larger surfaces than vice versa.
