DIP APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. Wash and dry hands. Remove the shine from the natural nail with a nail file. Be sure to buff the entire nail plate. 2. Shape the natural nails and select appropriate size tip. A properly-sized tip should cover no more than 1/3 of the nail bed and extend across the width of the nail from nail groove to nail groove without contacting the skin. Apply a small amount of glue to the tip “well” area. Holding prepared tip at a 45 degree angle, press tip “well” section to the nail free edge. Blend the tip to the natural nail and remove tip shine.

DIP KIT
This system is simple and has easy to use step by step instructions for non-acrylic wrap applications, resulting in strong, beautiful and natural looking nails. Seals in oils to prevent drying, cracking and splitting of nails.
On Resin to the new growth and nail and dip into the Dipping Powder. Spray with Resin Activator. Repeat. Finish as in main instructions.
2. Trim or file excess artificial nail length. With a coarse file, roughen the surface of the nail while removing excess thickness. The less product there is to soak off, the faster the removal process. Always be careful not to file into the natural nail. 3. Immerse fingertips into the bowl and cover with a terry cloth towel. DO NOT lift the nails out of the liquid to look at them during soaking as any reexposure to the air will allow the product to begin hardening again. After 10 minutes, remove the towel and gently scrape at the nail surface with a manicure stick while the nails are still under the surface of the acetone solution. Keep the fingers in the acetone solution until all of the remaining residue is dissolved and can be wiped from the nail with a paper towel.

7. Final coat: Apply a coat of Brush-On Resin as if you are applying polish and spray with Resin Activator. Wait 5 seconds and repeat. This will ensure a smooth surface to the nail and less filing time. 8. Finishing: Using a 180 grit file or white block; shape the left and right side of the nail groove. Apply cuticle oil to nails and cuticle. Massage the oil into the cuticles. Finish by buffing to a shine with a buffer. Use the white side first, grey second, and dark grey third for a high gloss shine. MAINTENANCE
8 Perform maintenance when nails are cracked, chipped or grown out (about every 2-3 weeks)
1. Remove polish and push back cuticles to fully expose new growth area. Lightly buff new nail growth area with a file. Check the sides of the nail for loose product and file it away so it blends with the natural nail. 2. On the 2 week fill, it is not necessary to dip into the powder. A fill-in can be performed by simply applying the Brush-On Resin and activating with Resin Activator and repeating this sequence until the desired thickness is achieved. 3.
