Step by Step - Mani Tip Application
STEP 1
Gently remove shine from the natural Nails, with a 180 grit Crystal Nails Green Extreme file. Do not shorten, just shape the free edge.
STEP 2
Wipe off dust, and deeply dehydrate, and sanitize the natural nail with Crystal Nails Spray Prep
STEP 3
Match the tip to the natural nail. The tip should fit from side to side of the natural nail, within the finger’s lateral sidewalls. Place a small amount adhesive to the white tip. Be sure, you spread the adhesive even, also to the corners.
STEP 4
Secure the Crystal Nails Mani Tip to the natural nail’s free edge, and hold it for a few seconds. Press firmly against the free edge, to be sure, it’s securely adhered. Be sure, that the tip is fitting side to side to the natural nail’s surface, and the smile line is in the right place, and direction.
STEP 5
Clip off the clear guide tip, and the tab.
STEP 6
Refine the mani tip’s free edge, with a Crystal Nails Green Extreme Curved abrasive, and gently buff the surface of the tip.
STEP 7
Wipe off the dust, and use a very thin layer of Acid Free Primer (only on the natural nail’s surface). Let the Primer dry.
STEP 8
Apply a thin layer of Easy Off Base gel. Avoid skin contact, and be sure to cap the free egdes. Cure for 2 minutes in regular UV Lamp or 10 seconds in LED.
STEP 9
Apply a coat of Crystal Nails Cover Mani Gel thinly, over natural nail. Do not cover the free edge. Be sure that the gel didn’t flow into the cuticle, and into the lateral folds. Create a beautiful fade halfway to the cuticle, to make the new growth area invisible.
STEP 10
Refine the smile line with a clean brush, and double check, the cover gel is separated from the tip.
STEP 11
Apply a thin layer of Easy Off Top Gel, and cure for 2 minutes. Avoid skin contact, and be sure, to cap the free edges as well.
