Gel manicures are one of the best advances in nail technology as far as I am concerned but not only are they costly and time consuming, there is also the damage element that you need to factor in - especially if like myself you chose to chip away at your manicure in front of the T.V, rather than professionally soak it off. Fear not, fellow manicured-but-pushed-for-time readers, there is a handful of new nail products targeted at such concerns and at our rescue.

Elegant Touch Nail Saviour

Like many I rely upon Elegant Touch for most of my fast fashion nail needs (aka pretty but affordable press-on nails) but their latest launch, is what every false nail wearer walking God's green earth has been waiting for - especially habitual nail pickers (I see you!). Elegant Touch Nail Saviour is part genius, and in my opinion part necessity, for regular false nail wearers of any type; this moisture-rich, brush on treatment has been formulated to act as a shield against nail glue.
In a nutshell, one coat of Elegant Touch Nail Saviour (currently £7.46) creates a micro-mesh barrier between your natural nail and the glue needed to created ultra long talons to lessen damage, all the while strengthening the nails with a blend of calcium and Vitamin B. It's quick. it's easy and it actually works - my nails don't flake or peel when I use this and I very seldom remove any form of false nail in the recommended manner (aka I bite them off).
