CND ScrubFresh Nail Prep

ScrubFresh is designed to cleanse the nail plate by removing surface oils, contaminants, and residual moisture. This creates a clean, dry surface that helps your base coat and polish adhere better, which ultimately extends the life of your manicure.

While pure acetone can remove oils, ScrubFresh is formulated specifically as a prep step to balance the nail surface without being overly drying or harsh. It is more effective at ensuring long-term adhesion for professional-grade results compared to standard polish remover.

Yes, it is versatile enough to function as a standard nail lacquer remover. However, its primary strength lies in prepping the nail plate before a fresh application, so you may find it more efficient to use a standard remover for heavy polish removal and save this for the final prep step.

You should use ScrubFresh as the very last step before applying your base coat. After you have shaped your nails and pushed back your cuticles, wipe the nail plate thoroughly with a lint-free pad soaked in ScrubFresh to ensure a pristine surface.

Absolutely. Premature chipping is often caused by oils or moisture trapped on the nail plate, which prevents the polish from bonding properly. By thoroughly cleansing the nail with ScrubFresh, you create the optimal environment for your base coat to grip the natural nail.
