Once you have applied your Base Coat, it is time to apply your Base Color. This can be a Rubber Base, Liquid Builder, Polygel, or Gel Polish. In this guide, we will focus on Gel Polish. Before opening the bottle, it can be a good idea to roll it between your palms. We have designed the bottle so that it is easy and comfortable to roll in your hands. This ensures that the pigments are evenly distributed in the bottle. It is important not to shake the product, as this can create air bubbles in your Gel Polish, which may become visible on the nail.
The consistency of your Gel Polish may vary slightly depending on the color, as the more pigmented shades can be a bit thicker. Apply your Gel Polish in the same way as your Base Coat. Start by applying a thin layer of Gel Polish on the nail. Make sure there is not too much product on the brush, and place the brush head in the middle of the nail. Press the product down toward the cuticle while keeping the brush close to the nail plate. Then pull the product along the sides of the nail toward the tip, and seal it.
It is important that your Gel Polish comes close to both the base and sides of the nail without touching the skin around it. Once your Gel Polish is applied as desired, cure it in our UV/LED lamp for 60 seconds. You can advantageously work one nail at a time and flash-cure it for 10 seconds, then finally cure all nails for 60 seconds. This prevents the product from running while you are working on your nails.
If you want a more pigmented look, you can apply several layers. Remember, it is better to apply four paper-thin layers than two thick ones. It is important to cure each layer for 60 seconds in our UV/LED lamp.
