Ready. Prep. Go. Advanced Cuticle Remover

A 3-in-1 cuticle remover that breaks down cuticles, cleans nail surface, and smoothes skin around nails for a salon quality-manicure.


Ready Prep Go Frequently Asked Questions

  • Invisible cuticle tissue often grows up onto the nail plate. If you apply polish directly over this dead skin, the polish cannot stick properly to the nail, leading to early lifting and peeling. By using essie Ready. Prep. Go. to dissolve this barrier, your base coat bonds directly to a clean nail plate, extending the life of your manicure by up to 2 days.

Quick, easy, and gentle cuticle care

10 months ago
This cuticle remover from Essie works really well for softening and cleaning up dry cuticles quickly. I like how easy it is to apply, and the gel texture stays in place without dripping everywhere. After a few minutes, it makes it super easy to push back cuticles and get that salon-level clean finish at home. It doesn’t have a strong scent and feels gentle on the skin. The only small downside is that it can dry out a bit fast, so you have to work quickly — but overall, it’s a great product that makes nail prep so much easier.

Easy and effective cuticle remover

Enjoyed testing this cuticle remover: effectively helps to soften cuticle without overdrying it. Helps to maintain manicure for longer time. Little goes a long way too.

excellent except product application wasteful

I love this product! It works great at removing cuticles, better than any product I've used - is thicker and more penetrating. My only issue - why I deleted a star and will re-consider purchasing again (so is a big one) - is that despite the promise of easy application, I found it extremely difficult to dispense, shaking and attempting to apply a thin line, only to end up with a big clump that is way too much and a huge waste of product. My bottle has only lasted a couple months, which is not worth it for the price! I'd appreciate if you could re-address the tip and application - I am a huge loyalist to Essie.

Quick, easy and gentle cuticle remover that actual

This cuticle remover makes at-home nail prep so much easier. The formula softens cuticles really fast without any stinging or strong scent which I appreciate. It spreads evenly, doesn’t drip everywhere, and starts working within a minute. After pushing the cuticles back, everything looks way cleaner and more polished. I also love that it doesn’t dry out the skin around my nails. The packaging is compact and the tip is easy to control but it could be more aesthetic. Overall it’s super effective and definitely saved me a few salon visits.

Excellent product

a year ago
I love to do my nails from home, so when I used this product for the first time I was pleasantly surprised and it has become a must-use in prepping my nails before polish! It’s super easy to use, and has little micro-beads that soften the cuticles without irritation, making it easier to push the cuticles back My nails look salon ready every time after I use it :)
