Application tips
Over-base:
For the base to give a beautiful effect, apply a thin layer over the entire nail plate and do not harden!
Then scoop more product and build up the nail with a thicker layer. Applying the base coat in one thick layer can cause burning in the lamp and result in a reduced durability of the entire style.
- Remember to disinfect your hands (yours and your client's) first. Put on gloves, then assess the condition of your hands and nails and check for any contraindications to the treatment.
- Push back the cuticles (with a shovel or stick) and work them with a cutter (e.g. Cuticle 9).
- Gently and evenly matt the cuticle using a 100/180-grit buffer, and remove any dust with a soft brush.
- Saturate a lint-free cotton pad with Classic Cleaner and thoroughly degrease the tile.
- Apply the appropriate primer, 90% of which is Acid Free Primer. For more demanding tiles, use Acid Primer.
- Whichever primer you choose, apply a minimal amount and only to the natural plate, not touching the cuticles.
- Apply a thin layer of your chosen hybrid base coat and cure for 30 seconds in a Multi Led lamp.
- If your nails are weak or naturally flat, you can apply two coats of builder base to strengthen your nails.
- Cure the thicker base coat for 60 seconds in a Multi Led lamp.
- If the base coat surface is even, you can remove the sticky layer with Shea Super Shine Cleaner after waiting a minute to enjoy the satin finish of the base coat.
- When the surface of the base needs to be worked with a file, remove the sticky layer from the nails with a cotton swab soaked in Wipe Off Cleaner.
- Using a 100/180 file or a buffer of the same gradation, smooth the surface of the base coat.
- Remove dust with a soft brush and clean the surface again with the classic Cleaner or Wipe Off Cleaner.
- Finish with your favourite top coat.
- You can also apply your chosen colour of hybrid varnish to the prepared surface.
- Apply a first, thin layer of your chosen hybrid varnish and cure in a Multi Led lamp for 30 seconds.
- Apply a second coat of colour and cure in the Multi Led lamp for 30 seconds.
- For a perfect finish, reach for a matching top coat (e.g. Tip Top or Wet Look).
- Cure top for 30-60 seconds in the Multi Led lamp.
- Wait about 1 minute after removing the lamp.
- If you have chosen a non-sticky top, choose a protein serum, keratin shea elixir or your favourite cream as a finishing touch.
- If you have used a top with a sticky layer, wipe each nail with a dust-free cotton swab soaked in Shea Super Shine Effect Cleaner.
