1. Prepare the nails: cleaning and shaping

Start by removing your nail polish and washing your hands thoroughly. A clean base will ensure better nail polish adhesion.

File gently with our glass file

Next, adjust the length of the nails with the file, known for its precision and respect for keratin.
Tip: always file in the same direction, from left to right, to avoid splitting or weakening the nail.

Trim off any excess skin

Remove only the small, protruding bits of skin using a stainless steel cuticle nipper or cuticle nippers. This step helps create a clean contour without damaging the cuticles.

2. Cleanse and purify: the whitening bath

Prepare a bowl of lukewarm water and infuse 2 to 3 Vitry effervescent whitening balls in it. Soak your hands for 5 minutes.
  • Lemon and tea tree essential oils purify the nail
  • the whitening agents gradually lighten the plaque

Repeated twice a week for 4 weeks, this step helps to achieve visibly clearer and neater nails.

3. Smooth and shine: polishing in 3 steps

To remove minor imperfections, use the Vitry 3-Sided Super Polisher:

  1. Black side #1 - Smooth: gentle peeling to reduce ridges and even out the nail.
  2. White side #2 - Polish: refines the surface and improves softness to the touch.
  3. Grey side #3 - Shine: gives a natural shine without varnish.

Next, remove the small dust particles produced by polishing.


4. Nourish and soften the cuticles

Apply a drop of Nail and Cuticle Oil to each nail and massage in. Thanks to grapeseed oil and vitamin E , this treatment:

  • hydrate
  • prevents the appearance of small flakes of skin

Once absorbed, remove the excess to prepare the nail base.

5. Protect and strengthen: the essential foundation


Before applying any nail polish, apply a protective base coat such as Pro'Expert Repair Treatment . This treatment strengthens the nail structure while improving polish adhesion. Apply a thin coat and allow to dry completely.
