Technical Tips
  • Each layer of gel needs to be cured for a full 2 minutes.
  • If you are going to use primer, make sure you do so very sparingly. Too much primer will cause lifting.
  • The high gloss gel requires a curing time of 4 minutes in order to obtain a lasting shine.
  • To test you have applied enough ultra bond gel, brush on a layer and cure it for 2 mins. Now wipe off the sticky residue. The gel should look shiny and should not be patchy.
  • You can also wear the sheer gels alone by applying them like a coloured gel.
  • The sheer gels also add a different tone to colour gels. You can apply a sheer gel over a coloured gel.
  • Never stir the ultra bond, strengthen & shine, base & build, all in one, the build & sculpt or gloss gels.
  • Colour gels and white gels need to be mixed well before use
  • To apply a ‘c’ curve, the gel should be thicker down the centre of the nail (like a ‘spine’) and thin around the cuticles, down the sides and at the free edge.
