How to apply
- 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.
- 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.
- Apply Rubber Base or Base Coat in one thin layer and cure.
- Apply Boxing Day in one or two thin coats, curing each coat.
- Finish with a top coat and cure according to its instructions.
- 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
What gel colour works for a party or New Year?
Shades that catch the light photograph better in evening lighting than flat creams. Boxing Day fits well: a dark plum base with opalescent flash particles that give a pearly flash under direct light or a camera flash.
How is Boxing Day different from Fireplace?
Both carry opalescent flash particles and cover fully in two coats. The base is what differs: Boxing Day is a plum with a cool violet undertone, Fireplace a gold with a warm yellow-gold one.
Does the flash show more on a dark base?
Yes. The contrast between a dark base and light particles is at its strongest, which is why the flash in Boxing Day is so noticeable. On lighter shades the same effect reads more softly.
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.
