How to apply
- Do the manicure with a cuticle remover: place a drop on the cuticle, push it back and take off the pterygium.
- Degrease the plate with Nail Prep, then apply Ultrabond Primer for better adhesion. The primer is not cured, it flashes off in the air.
- Apply a base coat in two thin layers and cure.
- Apply the first coat of Iris. Keep the hand in the air and do not touch the underside of the free edge with the brush. Cure.
- Apply the second coat to full coverage and cure.
- Seal the coating with a top coat and cure.
- Apply cuticle oil no earlier than 30 seconds after the top coat is cured.
Curing time: 60...120 sec in an LED lamp, 30...60 sec in a 48 W dual LED lamp. The time depends on the power of the lamp and on the diodes themselves, and has to be checked separately for each product.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a milky gel and a white gel?
The difference is what happens to the nail bed underneath. A white shuts it out; a milky one keeps a little of it visible and softens what shows. That is why milky shades read warm and skin-like where a white reads flat. Iris is milky, with a cool lilac pulled through it, and it reaches its own colour in two thin coats.
How is Iris different from Tulip?
Iris is milky and cool, Tulip is pink and neutral. Iris reads as milk with a chill in it, Tulip as a dusty pink nude. For a cool milky manicure, take Iris.
How many coats of Iris do I need for an even milky finish?
Two thin coats. Milky shades are especially sensitive to thickness: one thick coat leaves patches and streaks, two thin ones lay down evenly and reach the final coverage in two passes.
The colour on screen may differ from the real shade of the product: monitor calibration and the display modes you have switched on both affect it. If you have any doubt about the shade, get in touch and we will show you the colour in person.
