Wakemake Gun
WAKEMAKE's Nail Gun line is a compact nail-care system rather than one single product: a base gel, a pink serum pen, a three-in-one top and base coat, a cuticle-remover pen and a cuticle oil. Together they cover prep, colour protection and aftercare, so the choice between pieces comes down to which step of a manicure needs attention rather than picking a shade.

WAKEMAKE Nail Gun: a full nail-care system
WAKEMAKE's Nail Gun name covers a small system of nail-care pieces rather than one product: a base gel, a serum pen, a combined top and base coat, a cuticle-remover pen and a cuticle oil. Each one handles a different step of a manicure.
Nail Gun base gel
The Nail Gun base gel is the foundation step, a clear gel-style formula applied before polish or gel colour to help the finish sit evenly and last longer.
Nail Gun Pink Serum Pen
The Pink Serum Pen is a click-pen nail serum meant for daily strengthening or conditioning between manicures, applied directly to the nail plate without a brush or bottle.
Nail Gun Top Base Coat
The Top Base Coat covers both the base and top steps of a manicure in one product, sold across a few finish types so it can go on before colour or seal it once colour is applied.
Nail Gun Cuticle Out Pen Remover
The Cuticle Out Pen Remover is a click-pen formula for softening and removing cuticle buildup before a manicure, an easier alternative to a bottled cuticle remover for touch-ups.
Nail Gun Cuticle Oil
The Cuticle Oil is the aftercare step, worked into the nail bed and surrounding skin to keep cuticles soft between manicures rather than removing buildup outright.
Building a manicure routine from these pieces
A full routine runs from the Cuticle Out Pen Remover for prep, to the base gel or Top Base Coat before colour, to the Pink Serum Pen for in-between strengthening, and the Cuticle Oil for daily aftercare.
Why some pieces come as pens
The serum and cuticle-remover pieces use a click-pen applicator instead of a brush, which keeps the formula controlled and makes it easier to apply precisely along the cuticle line without extra tools.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Which Nail Gun piece should be used first in a manicure?
Start with the Cuticle Out Pen Remover to clear buildup, then apply the base gel or the base side of the Top Base Coat before colour. The Pink Serum Pen and Cuticle Oil are aftercare steps used between manicures.
What is the difference between the Top Base Coat and the base gel?
The base gel is used only as a foundation step before colour. The Top Base Coat can be used at either stage, as a base before colour or as a top seal afterward, and comes in a few finish types.
How is the Cuticle Oil different from the Cuticle Out Pen Remover?
The Cuticle Out Pen Remover is used before a manicure to soften and clear cuticle buildup. The Cuticle Oil is an aftercare product worked in daily to keep cuticles soft, not a removal step.
How often should the Pink Serum Pen be used?
It is designed for regular touch-ups between manicures, applied directly with the click-pen tip whenever nails need extra conditioning rather than as a one-time treatment.
Why do some Nail Gun products come in a pen instead of a bottle?
The serum and cuticle-remover pieces use a click-pen applicator so the formula can be applied precisely along the cuticle line without a brush, which is easier to control for small touch-ups.
