1. PREPARATION: Thoroughly prepare the nail, removing any dead skin and loose cuticle off and around the nail plate. Lightly buff the nail with a sponge buffer to remove any dirt and excess shine. Wipe any moisture from the nail using alcohol to prepare it for your gel application.
2 BASE: Apply KOKOIST Base Gel to the natural nail and cure using an UV and/or LED lamp. OPTIONAL: Apply two layers of the base coat, curing in between for extra durability.
3. OPTIONAL STEP - COLOR: Apply gel color of choice and cure using an UV and/or LED lamp.
4. TOP: Apply KOKOIST Velvet Matte Non Wipe Top Coat Gel and cure using an UV and/or LED lamp.
NOTE:
- KOKOIST Non-Wipe Top Gel will appear cloudy if cured for an insufficient amount of time or if the gel is applied too thick.
- Store out of direct light and at room temperature after each use.
- We recommend using a strong curing unit or else gel will not cure all the way through causing lifting or peeling. Follow the recommended curing times for each step.
- Be careful not to get gel onto the skin. Gel applied over the cuticle or around the eponychium area can cause lifting. Uncured gel left on the skin can cause allergic reactions to occur. Discontinue use immediately if itching, redness or swelling occurs on your skin, and contact a physician.
