Gel Nail Polish Application Removal Care Guide By S&L
Application Guide
1. Prep Your Nails
- File and shape your nails to your desired length and style.
- Gently push back cuticles, trim if needed, and buff the nail surfaces.
- Cleanse nails with alcohol pads to remove any oils or residue for better adhesion.
2. Apply Base Coat
- Apply a thin, even layer of S&L Base Coat.
- Cure under the UV LED lamp for 60 seconds.
- Note: The base coat & gel color will remain slightly tacky / sticky after curing - this is normal. Refrain from touching.
3. Apply Color Gel
- Apply a thin layer of S&L Color Gel.
- Cure for 60 seconds under the lamp.
- Repeat for a second coat for a more vibrant color.
- Pro tip: Avoid applying on your cuticles. Keep a small gap between the gel polish and your skin for best results.
4. Apply Top Coat
- Apply a thin, even layer of S&L Top Coat.
- Pro tip: Cap the edges of the nail to help prevent chipping.
- Cure under the lamp for 60 seconds to seal in a shiny, durable finish.
