Step-by-step instructions for applying "Sweet Pink Bling + Crystal Clear + Fuchsia Pink" Dipping Powder

Materials:

• Sweet Pink Bling Dipping Powder
• Crystal Clear Dipping Powder
  
• Fuchsia Pink Dipping Powder
• Base coat
• Activator
• Top coat
• Nail file and buffer
• Dusting brush or soft brush

Preparation

File your nails into the desired shape and gently push back your cuticles.

For optimal adhesion, lightly roughen/match the natural nails with a buffer block or the fine side of a file before application.

Be sure to remove invisible cuticle and skin debris as well, to avoid lifting.

Do not apply oils or creams before use.

Step 1: Base coat

Apply a thin layer of Base Coat. The first coat should be quick and does not need to be too precise. Be careful not to paint the cuticles, as this can cause air bubbles under the nails and affect adhesion.

For the pointing (index) finger, apply base coat to the entire nail and allow it to stay tacky. Using a small, soft brush, lightly pick up "Sweet Pink Bling" and gently brush it onto the upper portion of the nail, concentrating the shimmer near the tip and softly diffusing it downward for a blended look. After brushing off excess powder, apply base coat to the "lower portion of the nail only" and dip that area into Crystal Clear to create contrast and seal the gradient effect.

For the middle and ring fingers, begin by applying base coat to the entire nail and dipping fully into "Fuchsia Pink". Tap off excess and brush clean. Apply a second thin base coat and repeat the dip into "Fuchsia Pink" to build solid, even color. Once the base color is set, use a small brush to apply "Sweet Pink Bling" onto the upper portion of the nail, focusing the sparkle toward the tip. After removing excess powder, apply base coat to the lower portion of the nail and dip into "Crystal Clear" to balance the design and smooth the transition.

For the pinky, apply base coat to the entire nail and dip into "Fuchsia Pink" for full coverage. After brushing away excess powder, apply another thin layer of base coat and dip directly into "Sweet Pink Bling".

For the thumb, dip it coverage in "Fuchsia Pink". Tap off excess and brush clean.

Be sure to cover the edges well, but do not touch the skin around the nail.

Step 2: Base Coat & Color Powder

Repeat step 1 for optimal coverage, adhesion and beautiful and stunning color intensity.

Step 3: Activator Coat

Apply enough Activator Coat over the entire nail surface, edges and also at the tip. The Activator is the most important step in the application process because it seals and binds the layers to the nail, preventing air bubbles from forming and ensuring long-lasting adhesion. Allow the Activator Coat to dry for at least two minutes.

Step 4: Filing & Polishing

Now you can use the fine side of the file or a buffer to buff away all bumps and imperfections and bring the nails to the desired shape and thickness. It is important to file carefully so that you do not damage the surface and nails.

Step 5: Activator Coat

Repeat step 3. Again, apply enough Activator Coat to the entire nail and its perimeter to seal the layers optimally. Then allow the Activator Coat to dry for at least two minutes. To make sure the Activator Coat is dry, you can clean the surface of the nail with a paper towel after 2 minutes. This is to prevent the Top Coat from curing due to contamination.

Allow 2-3 minutes of waiting time between Top Coat and Activator Coat.

Step 6: Top Coat

Apply a thin layer of Top Coat evenly with 2-3 quick strokes and allow it to dry for at least two minutes.

Step 7: Top Coat

Repeat step 6. Apply a second, thin coat of Top Coat to the nails. Then let this dry for 2-3 minutes.
