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 Caramel Antike 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

Does room temperature affect gel polish application?
Yes. Cold makes gel thicker and slower to level, while warmth makes it runnier, so it slips into the sidewalls more easily. Keep Caramel Antike at normal room temperature, and if it feels stiff, roll the bottle between your palms before use.

How is Caramel Antike different from Nuts?
Nuts is a pastel beige with a yellowish undertone. Caramel Antike is noticeably more yellow.

Does Caramel Antike work as a base for nail art?
Yes. A creamy light yellow makes a soft background for fine designs such as thin lines and small florals. Cure Caramel Antike fully before you start, then seal the design with a top coat.
