What is a Brazilian style manicure?

A ‘Brazillian manicure’ is a supposed ‘technique’ that purports to be easier and make a manicure last longer!!! Nonsense.

The ‘technique’ involves painting nail polish all over the skin surrounding the nails, then, when the painting is completed, it is removed from the skin using acetone.

What is important to understand here is that, other than oils and creams, no nail product should touch the skin! They are designed to touch the nail plate only which is non living. The ingredients of all nail products have the potential to cause allergies.

It is a technique that makes no sense
