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 Elixir 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

Which gel polish colours work for spring and summer?
Warm, vivid shades such as coral come into their own in the warmer months, especially on tanned skin. Elixir is a coral with a warm orange undertone and covers fully in two coats, so it carries a bright summer manicure or pedicure on its own.

How is Elixir different from Safari?
Elixir is a coral with a warm orange undertone, Safari a neon orange with a warm red one. Safari is the brighter of the two and needs a light base underneath, while Elixir covers well on its own.

Does coral fade in the sun?
Coral pigments are among the most sensitive to sunlight, along with neons and fuchsias, so after a week by the sea Elixir may look a little paler. A top coat with UV protection slows the change down but does not stop it completely.

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.
