๐ Nail preparation
Preparing your nails is crucial for a good result. Here are the steps you should follow:
- Cut and shape your nails: Make sure they are the desired length and shape.
- Push back the cuticles: Use a cuticle remover to gently push back the cuticles.
- Roughen the nail surface: This ensures that the gel adheres better.
This preparation will help you achieve a professional result.
๐ก Tips for use
When applying the gel, there are some important points you should keep in mind:
- Use thin layers: Start with a thin layer of gel to achieve an even result.
- Position the lamp correctly: Make sure your hand is well positioned under the lamp to cure the gel evenly.
- Apply the gel evenly: Be careful not to get the gel on the skin, as this can encourage flaking.
