VP Safety Bit

1 min to read


Vicki Peters has redesigned the popular VP Safety bit for full nail contouring and cuticle work. The VP Safety bit is no longer a short bit for cuticle work only. It has been redesigned into a longer tapered bit with a rounded tip that can be used for safe beveling at the cuticle area, nail prep work, and now shaping the entire nail.

1. Use the bit flat to the nail for full contact and remove the gel shine sealant prior to the start of your fill.

2. For nail preparation during a fill, use the bit around the cuticle area at an angle to bevel the artificial product flush to the natural nail (for a no-line fill).

3. Use the bit almost flat to the nail and bevel the sides of the nails for a contoured surface shape.

4.  Using the bit almost flat to the nail at the cuticle area, refine your product to the perfect graduation for a lift free enhancement.
