Professional Tip

• Pay great attention to prep around the cuticle area as most product lifting can occur in this area if insufficiently prepped, with this type of enhancement 

APPLYING THE FORM

• Choose the correct size by placing the form to the free edge of the nail
• The form must cover lateral nail folds
• There should be a gap between the form and the nail bed as this is where the product will be placed

Professional Tip

• You can adjust the fit of the form around the cuticle by buffing it with a nail file for a snug fit, following the natural curve of the cuticle area on your client

CREATE YOUR ENHANCEMENT 

• Using the markings on the inside of the form apply a bead of Gellifique Acrylic Gel using the Gellifique Dual-Ended Acrylic Gel Brush
• Sculpt the material using the brush dipped in Isopropyl Alcohol solution
• Keep the sidewalls and cuticle area thin, with the majority of the product in the middle of the form to create the apex
• Place the filled form on the nail at a 45-degree angle, remove any excess product with a brush or Gellifique Fix It Silicone Wand
• Ensure there are no air pockets 
• Flash cure with Gellifique Pro Cure Mini for a few seconds 
• Remove your hand and turn it upside to shape the sculpted free edge in order to avoid extra filling and shaping after the cure
• Place your hand into the Gellifique Pro-Cure 48 W and cure for 15 sec.
• Tightly holding the form next to the cuticle area remove the form
• Now place your hand into the lamp and cure for 60 sec.

REFINE
