the first ever Orly Nails TSV is on the 28/08/19
The pusher & remover tool is brilliant & even my delicate little wisps benefit from having it used on them.
Have you used it with the Cutique stuff?

Ooh tell more? I thought it looked really harsh, & the 'dead skin' (on a nail plate??) was actually nail being scraped off, or more likely a clear/white product sneakily applied for the demo.
Edit: Hadn't read above, sorry.
I was a bit perturbed by the demo of the Cutique personally. When my nails need "doing", I can see 2-3mm of a sort of membrane growing over my nail at the bottom and that's what I aim to remove with some kind of remover and tool. I have been using a Leighton Denny one and the tool is from Avon (cheap but actually not bad). In the demo on Emma's nails, the demonstrator was starting the "scrape" well over half way up the nail and she was peeling off loads of something or other. Surely that can't all be dead skin and must be a protective layer. Does anyone have that much dead skin covering their nails?
I would be interested in the Cutique, though, and I'm running out of remover. As per previous post, Twilight does rate it. I will look on eBay in a few days' time, once people start offloading items from the TSV they don't want.
As per my previous, I am more sure than not, that the 'skin' coming off the nails is clear polish previously applied. See also LMM post for reasoning. There is no way I'd allow anyone demoing on my hands to 'scrape off skin' throughout the day.

I occasionally do gel colour on my nails and you get one of those scraper tools to scrape off the polish. its very harsh imo and shocked to see it used on a naked nail.
Dead skin does tend to be quite far up the nail.
It will be skin, it won't be clear polish, if you used the Cutique on nails that had anything painted on them you would damage the nail as any polish would work against the slip of the Cutique and the tool would damage the nail.
