Step by step
1. Prep & Disinfect: Gently remove cuticles and cleanse the natural nail with Nail Prep.
2. Form & Bond: Position a reinforced nail form secured with metallic tape, then apply Fantasy Bond for better adhesion.
3. Base Layer: Sculpt the nail foundation with Master Gel Camu Ivory, ensuring a smooth, even surface.
4. First Extension Layer: Use Gel Paintings from the Pastel Collection to create the first extension. Cure under a UV/LED lamp, then rub in AB Magic Flakes Pigment for a shimmery effect.
5. Encapsulate: Seal your extension with Master Gel Clear and cure in a UV/LED lamp. Cleanse with Cleanser, then file the fresh “smile line” so you can repeat Steps 4 and 5 with a different Gel Painting shade, layering multiple colors for a dimensional look.
6. Refine: Remove the form, then file and buff to achieve a flawless Pipe structure.
7. Floral Artwork: Paint intricate flowers using White Gel Painting, then cure under a UV/LED lamp.
8. Crystal Accents: Secure Swarovski crystals in the flower centers with Stickey for a luxurious sparkle.
9. Finish: Surround the crystals with Finish Gel for extra durability and gloss, then cure under the UV/LED lamp for a brilliant, lasting shine.
