HOW TO DIP WITH GEL LIQUIDS
NOTE: *You will need a UV lamp with a minimum of 48 watts to use gel liquids.*
1. Apply Gel Base to the nail in a thin even layer. Avoid touching the cuticles and sidewalls of the nail.
2. Pour the dip powder over the wet gel liquid. Tap off excess dip powder and clean around cuticles with a precision tool or orange woodstick.
3. Place hand under UV lamp with a minimum of 48 watts and cure for 30-60 seconds. (Time will vary with each light)
4. Remove hand, brush off all excess powder from your nails. The powder will be cured at this point, so it will not smear.
5. Repeat on all nails.
6. Once excess powder is brushed off, repeat steps 1-4 two more times.
7. 🌟If clear encapsulation is desired, repeat steps 1-4 again using Glass to clear encapsulate. Then use a high grit 180+ buffer to smooth the surface of the nail.
8. 🌟If Gel liquid encapsulation is desired, apply Gel Base, Cure for 60 seconds then apply Gel Top and cure for 60 seconds. Then buff with a high grit buffer 180+ until nails are smooth.
9. Apply a thin layer of Gel Base to all of your nails and cure for 60 seconds.
10. Then, without touching your nails, apply a thin-medium layer of Gel Top coat to all of your nails and cure for 60 seconds.
11. The Gel Top coat is no wipe, meaning your nails will not be sticky after curing.
12. Apply cuticle oil and you’re done!
