The key to gel manicures, our Gel Nail Lamp is designed to work perfectly with our Gel Nail Polish, curing it quickly and effectively.
A Base Coat, Colour Coat and Top Coat are essential. Apply Nail Primer before your Base Coat for better adherence, and a Builder Gel after your Base Coat for extra strength.
For application and removal, you'll need a Nail File, Orangewood Cuticle Sticks, Lint-Free Wipes and Cuticle Oil.
Use our Nail Polish Remover and Manicure Removal Clips to remove your Gel Nail Polish traditionally, or try our Express Gel Nail Polish Remover for a quick alternative.
Let's take it step-by-step.
Around 15-30 minutes before starting your gel manicure, wash your hands and apply sunscreen. Take care to avoid getting sunscreen on your nails, and wipe off if you do.
Use the curve of your Nail File to push back your cuticles, and the fine-grit side to shape your nails. With the same side, buff the entire nail surface, roughing it up to prevent lifting.
Apply Nail Polish Remover to a Lint Free Wipe and thoroughly clean the surface of your nails to dehydrate them. For added adherence, you can then optionally apply Nail Primer.
Apply a thin coat of Base Coat to your nails and cap the free edge. Cure for 60 seconds under the UV/LED Gel Nail Lamp.
For a super strong gel manicure, apply 1-2 thin coats of Builder Gel and cap the free edge. Cure each coat for 60 seconds under the Gelous UV/LED Gel Nail Lamp.
Apply 2-3 thin coats of Gelous Colour Coat, making sure to cap the free edge. After each coat, cure for 60 seconds under the Gelous UV/LED Gel Nail Lamp.
Apply a thin coat of Top Coat and cap the free edge. Cure for 60 seconds under the UV/LED Gel Nail Lamp. After the final cure, your Gel Nail Polish will be hard and smooth.
Apply Cuticle Oil around your nails and rub into your skin to nourish and moisturise. Make sure to avoid cleaning without gloves and picking at your nails.
Let's break it down.
Use the rough-grit side of your Nail File to gently buff away the shiny Top Coat of your Gel Nail Polish.
Soak a Lint Free Wipe in Nail Polish Remover and place it on top of your nail. Clip on the Manicure Removal Clips, and press down once your finger is inside. Leave on for approximately 15 minutes, then remove. For a faster solution, try our Express Gel Nail Polish Remover.
Gently push the Gel Nail Polish off with an Orangewood Cuticle Stick, or pull away using a Gel Nail Polish Removal Tool, always working in the direction your nail grows. If the polish doesn't come off easily, soak again.
Apply Cuticle Oil around your nails and rub into your skin to nourish and moisturise. Make sure to avoid cleaning without gloves and picking at your nails.
Expert tips for a flawless finish.
Use all Gelous products (Base Coat, Colour Coat, Top Coat, and Gel Nail Lamp) to ensure compatibility.
Thoroughly buff, clean, and dehydrate your nails with Nail Polish Remover before application for ultimate adhesion.
Apply your Gel Nail Polish away from sunlight and your Gel Nail Lamp when turned on to avoid it curing on the brush.
Apply your Gel Nail Polish in thin, even coats, leaving a gap between the Gel Nail Polish & cuticle to prevent lifting.
Remove any Gel Nail Polish on your skin before curing to prevent reactions or allergies.
Use Builder Gel or Rubber Base Coat if your nails are weak or flaky.
Cap every coat of Gel Nail Polish by running the brush horizontally over the free edge of your nail.
Avoid washing dishes or using cleaning products without gloves, and use Cuticle Oil daily.
