Application tips
Disinfect hands (yours and your client’s). Put on gloves and assess the condition of the hands and nails.
Push back the cuticles using a pusher or wooden stick and remove them with an e-file bit.
Gently matt the nail plate using a 100/180 grit buffer and remove dust with a soft brush.
Degrease the nail plate using Classic Cleaner.
Apply an appropriate primer (usually Acid Free Primer; for demanding nails use Acid Primer). Apply a minimal amount only to the natural nail plate, avoiding cuticles.
Apply a thin layer of base and cure for 30 seconds in a Multi LED lamp.
If nails are weak or flat, apply two building layers (Protein Base, Mineral Base, or Whitemin Base).
Cure a thicker base layer for 60 seconds.
If filing is needed, remove the sticky layer with Wipe Off Cleaner and smooth the surface using a 100/180 file or buffer.
Remove dust and cleanse again.
Apply the first thin layer of colour and cure for 30 seconds.
Apply the second layer and cure for 30 seconds.
Finish the styling with a top coat (e.g. Tip Top or Wet Look).
Cure the top coat for 30–60 seconds.
Wait about 1 minute after removing the hand from the lamp.
If using a no-wipe top coat, finish with a serum or cream.
If using a top coat with a sticky layer, wipe each nail with Shea Super Shine Effect Cleaner.
For extra shine, polish with a dry cotton pad.
The styling is ready!
