STRENGTHENING:

Perform a manicure
-
If using removers, wash hands with soap
-
Degrease the nail with LUNAmoon Nail Prep. Two passes with 4 cellulose wipes (1 wipe for 5 fingers). First clean the surface, then clean the nail edges and cuticle with a wooden stick and wipe
-
Use primer as desired – not necessary if using a sufficiently acidic base
-
Apply LUNAmoon Rubber Base with a flat gel brush, cover all edges, cure for 60 sec.
-
Remove the dispersion layer
-
Build with gel, leaving 0.5–1 mm distance from the cuticle. Cure for 60 sec.
-
File the shape after building to strengthen the nail tip
-
Thin nails: file out 1 mm of the natural nail from underneath to prevent lifting
-
Remove the dispersion layer and cover with color polish
-
Apply top coat, cure for 120 sec. Do not wipe afterwards to maintain shine
