1) Make sure client cleans surface of hands with Cleanse hand sanitizer. Push back cuticles. |
|
|
 |
2) Gently remove shine from natural nail with medium grit file or sanding band.
Use Swipe to wipe off any oils and contaminants from surface of natural nail. |
|
|
 |
3) Apply two coats of Protein Bond.
Protein Bond will leave a tacky residue on natural nail. |
|
|
 |
4)
Apply body with one pearl of Young Nails Acrylic. The key to reverse
application is keeping the majority of the bulk towards the stress area.
Keep the surrounding area around the cuticle and growth channel areas flush. |
|
|
 |
5) Notice the thickness from one side to the other when looking down the barrel of the nail. |
|
|
 |
6) The thickness must stay the same from side to side to prevent any shadowing from occurring at the Corners. |
|
|
 |
7)
Apply form and add small beads to the corners. Tuck the product up to
the smile. It does not matter if the product gets on the body. It will
file away when using your electric file to shape the nail. When
marbleizing acrylic, make sure you lay down a wet pearl of white. |
|
|
 |
8)
Quickly set a couple of small wet red pearls on the white and swirl in
the design. Make sure you swirl up to the smile so that the product
connects to the stress area. You can use the tip of your brush, a
needle, or marbleizing Tool. |
|
|
|
9)
Don't over swirl the product or it will turn to pink. A couple of
swirls are enough. If the product runs down the side of the form,
flatten your brush and cut away the loose product so that it lines up
with the sidewalls. |
|
|
 |
10) Apply a pearl of Speed Clear to cap the design. This layer will strengthen the free edge. |
|
|
 |
11)
Dip the C Curve stick into the powder and then make an impression into
the clear that you capped the free edge. The powder will prevent the
tool from sticking to the free edge. |
|
|
 |
12)
Fill in the circles with Green color powder and let dry. Make sure you
apply the green wet, and press it down into the impressions so that it
does not file away. |
|
|
 |
13) Pinch the C Curve in with the Magic Wand. |
|
|
 |
14)
File enhancement into shape with your electric file. Use your hand
files and buffers to smooth surface of enhancement. Apply coat of

area and hyponicium. |
