A standard manicure uses water soaking, a cuticle pusher and nippers to manage cuticles by hand. A Russian manicure uses an electric file (e-file) to remove the cuticle dry and with greater precision, resulting in a cleaner finish where gel or colour sits flush to the skin with minimal lifting at the edges. Russian manicures require a more skilled, trained technician and typically last longer than a standard gel manicure.

Unlike traditional manicures, which soak your cuticles in warm water before trimming or pushing them back, a Russian manicure uses an electric file or drill to precision-clean your cuticles and remove any extra cuticle from beneath your nail bed. They are sometimes referred to as ‘dry’ manicures. Some people believe Russian manicures are shinier and longer-lasting.

A Russian manicure with gel polish typically lasts 3–5 weeks, longer than a standard gel manicure, because the product is applied closer to the nail plate with less risk of lifting at the edges. Results vary based on your nail growth rate, daily activities and aftercare. Avoiding prolonged water exposure and using cuticle oil daily helps extend the wear.
