LUNAmoon. Mousse Gel #01, 30 ml, thick builder gel with shimmer

Mousse lab collection by Lora Sheiderova
Mousse gel 01-06

Mousse gel — modeling gel with a thick creamy texture, created in collaboration with Lora Sheiderova × LUNAmoon. The material stretches plastically with the brush while holding the desired shape and not spreading during work. Thanks to minimal thixotropy, the gel is convenient for laying in top forms: it stays in place and provides enough time for precise modeling without rushing. The dense controlled consistency allows working with several forms at once, without worrying that the material will flow or lose the required architecture. The coating gains a special effect from delicate glitter, which creates a soft glow in the light, similar to a light rubbing effect.

Features:

• Has a very thick and viscous consistency, so the material does not spread and allows calm work with the shape.
• Practically does not self-level, so the gel can be precisely laid with a brush and each modeling step can be controlled.
• Has high strength after polymerization and preserves the built nail architecture well.
• In its properties, the material is close to hard, so during modeling it is important to control the thickness of the coating, especially in the cuticle area.
• Has moderate amortization at 1 mm thickness, remaining maximally stable and maintaining a good arch.
• Suitable for nail extension and modeling.
• Requires a Rubber Base layer.
• UV/LED lamp power 36-48W.
• Allowable coating thickness 0.5 mm at the free edge / 1 mm at the apex.
• Full polymerization 120 seconds.

Application method:

STRENGTHENING

1. Removal.
2. Do not file the nail shape or leave 2 mm length, which will be removed after leveling.
3. With a 180 grit file, file without strong pressure on the nail from above, lifting the nail plate scales, or use a 100 grit buffer.
4. Perform a manicure.
5. If working with removers, wash hands with soap after handling them.
6. Degrease the nail with Nail Prep LUNAmoon. Do two passes. Use 4 wipes (1 wipe for 5 fingers). First pass: wipe the nail surface. Second pass: take an orange stick, place a wipe on it, and wipe everything in the cuticle area and grooves.
7. Primer is optional, but if the base layer has sufficient acidity, it is not necessary.
8. Apply the Rubber Base LUNAmoon layer best with a flat gel brush. Movements should be rubbing. Paint all nail grooves and cure in the lamp for 60 seconds.
9. Wipe off the sticky layer.
10. Level the nail plate with gel, leaving a 0.5-1 mm gap from the cuticle. Do not create excessive thickness in the cuticle area: the material is close to hard, so excess material on the soft and mobile part of the nail plate may cause lifting. Cure in the lamp for 60 seconds.
11. We file the shape after leveling. This is necessary to create thickness at the nail edge that will hold the free edge.
12. If the nail was thin, it may curl, so be sure to file 1 mm of the natural nail from the inside. In this case, there will be no material lifting. If the material is hard and the nail is very soft, the nail itself will begin to separate from the hard material at the free edge.
13. After filing, wipe off the sticky layer and apply color coat.
14. Apply top coat. Cure for 120 seconds. After curing, do not wipe anything, as shine may be lost.

CLASSIC EXTENSION

1. Removal.
2. Shorten the nail length to 1 mm and create a round shape.
3. Using a 220 grit file, file without strong pressure on top of the nail, lifting the scales of the nail plate, or use a 100 grit buffer.
4. Perform a manicure.
5. If working with removers, wash hands with soap after handling them.
6. Degrease the nail using Nail Prep LUNAmoon. Do two passes. Use 4 wipes for this (1 wipe per 5 fingers). First pass: wipe the nail surface. Second pass: take an orange stick, wrap a wipe around it, and wipe everything in the cuticle area and sidewalls.
7. Use LUNAmoon primer.
8. It is best to apply the Rubber Base LUNAmoon overlay with a flat gel brush. Movements should be pressing. Paint all nail sidewalls and cure in the lamp for 60 seconds.
9. Wipe off the sticky layer.
10. Place the extension form for the free edge of the nail.
11. Apply the artificial nail shape with clear gel. Cure for 30 seconds.
12. File the free edge and give the nail the desired shape.
13. Wipe off the sticky layer and excess dust.
14. Go over the areas where the file was used once more with Rubber Base LUNAmoon. Cure for 30 seconds.
15. Perform gel sculpting, controlling the thickness of the material and not overloading the cuticle area. Leave a small gap from the cuticle. Place in the lamp and pinch the arch approximately at the 20th second of polymerization, since the gel contains glitter. After pinching, finish curing the material in the lamp.
16. Finish curing in the lamp for 120 seconds.
17. Wipe off the sticky layer before applying color coat.
18. Apply top coat. Cure for 120 seconds. After curing, do not wipe anything, as shine may be lost.
