3. Remove in 60 seconds. When you’re ready to remove Shellac Luxe, thoroughly saturate the cotton pad of the CND Foil Remover Wraps with Offly Fast. Starting with the pinky finger, place the pad on the nail and tightly wrap all 10 fingers. Set a timer for 60 seconds. Firmly press on the top of each nail, massage and twist the wrap from the nail while encasing the product within the wrap. Gently remove any remaining product with an orangewood stick. Remove residue using a plastic-backed, lint-free pad or a stiff manicure brush moistened with Offly Fast.
