Soaking bowl method

Revel Nail recommends the soaking bowl method over the baggie method for removing Revel Nail dip powder manicures. While the baggie method is good in a pinch, acetone is extremely flammable and the soaking bowl method helps ensure that the acetone remains at a safe temperature.

The products used for the soaking bowl method are 100% acetone, paper towels or cotton balls, a bowl of warm water, a sandwich bag, coconut oil (optional), and the 150 Grit Nail File.

  • Using the Revel Nail 150 Grit File, buff off the shiny topcoat from your dip powder manicure. This step ensures that the acetone can penetrate the dipping powder.
  • Pour your 100% acetone into a sandwich bag with a scoop of coconut oil. Place your hand in the bag.
  • Then, place the bag submerged into the bowl of warm water. Wait for 10 minutes.
  • Once soaked for ten minutes, use a paper towel or cotton ball to wipe off any excess Revel Nail Dip Powder.
  • If the powder isn’t completely soaked off, place your hand back into the bag for another 5 minutes.

Baggie method

The baggie method is a quick way to remove Revel Nail Dip Powder. However, Revel Nail recommends the soaking bowl method over the baggie method because acetone is highly flammable, and the soaking bowl method helps ensure that the acetone remains at a safe temperature.

If you wish to use the baggie method, here are the steps:

  • With the Revel Nail 150 Grit File, buff off the shiny topcoat from your dip powder manicure.
  • Pour 100% acetone into a sandwich bag with a scoop of coconut oil.
  • Place your hand inside the bag.
  • Submerge the bag into a bowl of warm water.
  • Wait for 10 minutes.
  • Once soaked for ten minutes, use a paper towel or cotton ball to wipe off any excess Revel Nail Dip Powder.
  • If the powder isn't completely soaked off, place your hand back into the bag for another 5 minutes.

You can also use the Revel Nail Nail Spa for this method. Remove the bottom of your Revel Nail Nail Spa and fill the base with warm water. Then re-attach the top level of the Nail Spa to the base. Place a cotton ball with 100% acetone in each of the five indents, then place each finger in an indent and wait 7-10 minutes. Gently rub your nails with the soaked cotton balls and wipe off the remaining dip powder. If your dip powder is not fully removed, place your fingers back into the indents for a few more minutes.

Nail spa method

The Nail Spa Method is a safe and effective way to remove Revel Nail Dip Powder. This method requires 100% acetone, cotton balls, and a 150-grit nail file. You can also use Revel Nail's Removal Kit, which includes two Nail Spa Soak Bowls, Non-Whitening Acetone, and two dual-sided nail files.

  • Start by filing off the top coat of your manicure with a 150-grit nail file. You can also trim down any false nail tips that you wish to remove.
  • Protect your work area with a towel or mat to protect the surface from acetone.
  • Prepare a bowl of warm water.
  • Place a cotton ball soaked with 100% acetone in each of the five indents of the Revel Nail Spa.
  • Place each finger in an indent and wait for 7-10 minutes.
  • Gently rub your nails with the soaked cotton balls to wipe off the remaining dip powder.
  • If the powder is not completely removed, place your fingers back into the indents for a few more minutes.

It is important to note that acetone is highly flammable and should not be used near heat, sparks, or flames. Always use it in a well-ventilated area and avoid smoking or lighting any flames when removing your dip nails. Additionally, do not pick or peel off your dip powder manicure, as it can damage your natural nails.

Removal kit

Revel Nail offers a removal kit that includes two Nail Spa Soak Bowls, Non-Whitening Acetone, and two dual-sided nail files. The kit can be used with the soaking bowl method, which is safer than the baggie method as it helps maintain a safe temperature for the highly flammable acetone.

To use the removal kit, start by filing off the top coat of your manicure with the 150-grit nail file. Then, trim down any false nail tips that you wish to remove. Next, fill the base bowl with hot water ( <130°F, not boiling) and place the silicone bowl on top, pressing down the sides to snap it into place. Pour acetone into the bowl until the silicone scrubbers are submerged. Secure the lid and let the acetone heat up for about 5 minutes.

After 5 minutes, scrub your nails gently on the silicone scrubbers to remove the nail enhancements. If the powder is not completely soaked off, place your hand back into the bowl for another 5 minutes. Once the Revel Nail Dip Powder is removed, repeat the process for the other hand.

When finished, carefully separate the pieces and dispose of any acetone. Soak up any excess acetone with a paper towel and throw it in the trash. Wash the silicone with dish soap and warm water immediately after use to keep your bowl clean.

Clean Slate Peel Base

Revel Nail Dip Powder manicures can be removed using the Nail Spa Method, which involves using 100% acetone, cotton balls, and a 150-grit nail file. Another method is the soaking bowl method, which uses similar products but is safer than the baggie method as it helps maintain a safe temperature for acetone.

To avoid the use of acetone, Revel Nail offers Clean Slate Peel Base, a peelable base coat that can be applied before the dip powder to enhance the health of your natural nails and decrease removal time. The application method will vary depending on your nail bed chemistry and the longevity of your desired manicure.

For naturally drier nail beds, a strip of Clean Slate down the middle of the nail is recommended, allowing it to dry completely before applying the dip powder. For naturally oilier nail beds, a small dot of Clean Slate in the center of the nail is suggested, again ensuring it is completely dry before proceeding with the dip powder.

While Clean Slate Peel Base can reduce removal time and enhance the health of your natural nails, some users have reported issues with the product. One user found that the base coat peeled off within the same day, requiring multiple reapplications over a two-week period. Another user experienced difficulty removing the product, needing to file and soak their nails, which resulted in damage to their nail beds.
