- Use the Gellifique® complete gel system
- We do not recommend using acetone to clean/prep the nails
- Use a primer + base coat for better adhesion
- Use a responsibly purchased (reliable supplier) UV/LED lamp of at least 48W so the gel cures faster
ATTENTION
- Keep away from direct sunlight and UV/LED lights to stop the gel polish from curing inside the bottle
- Avoid cold temperatures as it thickens the gel polish
- Please read & follow the application guide
GEL POLISH APPLICATION ON NATURAL NAILS
STEP #1: NAIL PREP
- Sanitise your own and your client's hands
- Do not use cuticle softening products or warm water
- Gently push back the cuticles and "tidy up" the area using a soft buffer or a tool which you have been trained with
- File the nails into shape using a 100/180 grit nail file
- Gently buff the natural nail with a soft buffer to remove any shine
- Cleanse the nails with Isopropyl Alcohol or specialised cleanser
- Apply the Gellifique acid -free Primer
STEP #2: BASE COAT
- Apply a thin and precise layer of Gellifique Microcrystal Base Coat or Microcrystal Rubber Base Coat
- Do not let it run into the cuticle area and seal the free edge
- Cure using a responsibly purchased UV/LED lamp of at least 48W for 30 seconds with LED or 60 seconds with UV
STEP #3: FIRST LAYER - GEL POLISH COLOUR
- Apply the first layer of a Gellifique Gel Polish Colour of your choice and seal the free edge
- Cure using a responsibly purchased UV/LED lamp of at least 48W for 30 seconds with LED / 60 seconds with UV lamp

- Apply the second layer of a Gellifique Gel Polish Colour of your choice and seal the free edge
- Cure using a responsibly purchased UV/LED lamp of at least 48W for 30 seconds with LED / 60 seconds with a UV lamp
- If you are a perfectionist and would like to cover any areas on the nail which you feel need a bit more coverage we recommend using a thin drawing nail brush and with gentle downward or upward strokes place or move the gel around as you see fit. This technique is often used to perfect the area around the cuticle or any areas which seem a little more translucent than the rest of the nail
STEP #5: ULTRA SEAL

- Soak a lint-free wipe in 100% acetone liquid and wrap each finger in foil or place into nail clips. Leave to soak for 10-15 minutes. The time for soak off will depend on the products used and amount of glitter and other nail art applied as well as the number of gel polish layers
STEP #4: REMOVAL - GEL POLISH REMOVAL

STEP #5: BUFF & SHAPE - GEL POLISH REMOVAL
