Gel Polish - Detox, 10 ml

Detox Gel Polish, 10 ml by ReformA is a carmine with a cool raspberry undertone and full coverage in two coats. A rich carmine for saturated single-colour nails.

The cool raspberry undertone takes carmine into berry territory, so the colour looks deeper than a classic red and cooler than fuchsia. It comes in a 10 ml bottle with a brush. Apply Detox over a cured base and finish with a top coat.

How to apply

1. Prep the cuticle area with Cuticle Remover: apply a small amount to the cuticle, gently push it back with an orange stick or a pusher and lift off the pterygium.
2. Prep the nail plate: degrease it with a cleanser such as Cleanser, then dehydrate it with Nail Prep. Duo Prep covers both steps in one product. Then apply Ultrabond Primer for better adhesion to the nail plate. The primer needs no curing, it air-dries.
3. Apply Rubber Base or Base Coat in one thin layer and cure.
4. Apply Detox in one or two thin coats, curing each coat.
5. Finish with a top coat and cure according to its instructions.
6. Wait at least 60 seconds after curing the top coat before applying cuticle oil, so the top coat keeps its shine.

Gel polish curing time: 60-120 sec in an LED lamp, 30-60 sec in a 48 W dual LED lamp. Curing time depends on the power of the lamp and its LEDs, so check it separately for each product.

Frequently asked questions

Why does colour pull away from the free edge after curing?
Usually the coat was too heavy at the tip or the free edge was not capped. Keep Detox thin, run the brush lightly along the edge of the nail with each coat and cure straight away, so the product has no time to draw back from the tip.

How is Detox different from Revolution?
Detox is a carmine with a cool raspberry undertone, Revolution a fuchsia with a cool pink-purple one. Detox is deeper and closer to berry, Revolution brighter and pinker. Both cover fully in two coats.

How do I avoid a gap at the cuticle with a rich shade like Detox?
Keep the margin small but equal on all sides. Place the brush 1-2 mm from the cuticle first, then ease the product towards it with the tip. On saturated shades an uneven margin shows most, so check the line before you cure.

Colours on screen can look different from the real shade: monitor calibration and display settings both affect it. If you are unsure about a shade, get in touch and we will show you the actual colour.
