French nails
“French nails” means decorating the fi ngernails with a white tip.
♦
Model the nail as described in the chapter entitled “Application” until you
have applied the fi rst layer of UV gel
a
and hardened it.
♦
Use the round application side of the Spot swirl
t
to apply French gel
s
to
the nail tip. Always take up new French gel
s
with the point and model the
white nail tip with light circular movements.
♦
Proceed with the other nails in the same way.
♦
Now harden the nail using a setting of 150 seconds.
♦
Then apply an additional layer of UV gel
a
. Apply a little less UV gel
a
to the white part of the nails than to the rest. This makes the transition to the
white tip disappear.
♦
Now harden the nail using a setting of 150 seconds. After the last hardening
of the gel layer, the nails may feel a little sticky (“sweat layer” or polymeriza-
tion layer).
♦
Moisten a cellulose pad
z
with fi nishing solution
o
and then wipe this over
the nail.
