Muse Gel Polish, 10 ml by ReformA is a dark plum-aubergine with a cool undertone. A dark plum-aubergine for deep single-colour nails.

Thanks to the cool undertone, the plum looks almost black in low light and shows its aubergine depth in sunlight. It comes in a 10 ml bottle with a brush. Apply Muse over a cured base and seal it 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 Muse 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

What does it mean if the gel feels rubbery after curing?
It means undercuring: the gel has not set all the way through. With a very dark shade like Muse the usual cause is a coat that is too thick, because a thick layer of dark pigment cures less well. Keep each coat thin, then check the curing time and your lamp.

How is Muse different from Silken?
Silken is a dark plum-burgundy with a violet undertone and more red in it. Muse leans towards aubergine and reads cooler.

Why use lint-free wipes with a dark shade like Muse?
Fibres from cotton pads stick in the base and show through the colour, and on a very dark shade they are hard to miss. A lint-free wipe removes oil and dust without leaving anything behind.

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.
