-
No drying out: This gel doesn’t dry out, ensuring its longevity and reliability.
How to Use
-
Preparation: Start by thoroughly prepping the nail. Remove any dead skin and loose cuticles, then lightly buff the nail to remove dirt and excess shine. Clean the nail using alcohol to prepare for the gel application.
-
Base: Apply a base gel (recommended: Nail Thoughts Builder Base) and cure using an LED or UV lamp. You can apply two layers of the base coat for extra durability.
-
Color: Apply Nail Thoughts NT-12 Tortoise Shell gel color and cure for 30 seconds under LED light or 60 seconds under UV light. You can apply additional layers for more opacity, ensuring thin layers between each cure.
-
Top Coat: Apply a top coat and cure once again.
Additional Tips
For the best results, be sure to use a strong curing unit and follow the recommended curing times. If the gel is applied too thickly, it can lead to an uneven surface or air bubbles, resulting in improper curing. Store your gel away from direct light and at room temperature to preserve its quality.
