Gel polish "Cat's Eye" on a stained-glass base 8ml M-02 - violet amethyst
Cosmic gel polish CAT'S EYE MAGNETIC is a fantastic mix of enchanting magnetic "cat's eye" highlights and a translucent stained-glass base. The coating looks incredibly deep, reminiscent of the shimmer of precious and semi-precious stones. They are ideal for "Korean" designs when applied without a dark or colored matching underlayer. The plastic cat's eye pigment allows you to play with magnets, creating highlights of various shapes, curves, and sizes.
Application technology:
0. Prepare the nail plate for gel polish application: do a manicure, give the free edge of the nail the desired shape. If using a remover, remove its residue with a damp wipe
1. Degreasing: degrease the nail plate mechanically (with a buffer) and chemically (with PREP&FINISH and a lint-free wipe)
2. Dehydration: apply NAIL FRESHER to the entire nail, allow it to air dry until a whitish tint appears on the surface of the nail plate
3. Bonding: with a semi-dry brush, apply acid-free primer ULTRABOND to the entire nail, leaving 1 mm from the cuticle and side walls. Allow to air dry for 15 seconds
4. Base coat: apply a base coat in a medium layer. Cure the base coat in a UV lamp for 2-3 minutes, in an LED lamp for 60 seconds.
To level the nail plate with a base, we recommend using only bases with a low acidity level.
5. Color. If using an underlayer, apply the color and cure in a lamp: in a UV lamp for min 2-3 minutes, and in an LED lamp for 60 seconds. After that, apply a layer of CAT'S EYE MAGNETIC gel polish. Before curing, magnetize the highlight* (you can use a regular magnet, a strengthened magnet, or magnets of various shapes and sizes). Cure the gel polish in a lamp: in a UV lamp for 2-3 minutes, and in an LED lamp for 60 seconds. If necessary, apply a second layer in the same way.
We recommend working in an assembly-line manner, i.e., one finger at a time.
6. Finishing coat: secure the coating with a top. Cure in a UV lamp for 2-3 minutes, in an LED lamp - 1 minute.
If using RUBBER TOP with a sticky layer, let the coating cool down, then remove the stickiness with PREP&FINISH and a lint-free wipe.
To level the nail plate with a top, we recommend using tops of medium-thick and thick consistency.
Strict adherence to the gel polish application technology is the key to long-lasting manicure wear without chips, cracks, or peeling
PRO tip: if the highlight didn't work the first time, simply disturb the pigment with a brush (simulate applying a layer of gel polish) and start over
