Flower Gel №1 Extension Gel

Flower Gel is a milk-based gel with dried flowers, designed for modeling, strengthening, and building.

It has a medium consistency and self-levels well. Thanks to the gel consistency, the dried flowers remain at different depths of the material and do not settle to the bottom of the jar.
The milky base blends harmoniously with various designs.

The ideal choice for masters who seek to create a delicate but spectacular manicure.

Application method:

CLASSIC EXTENSION:

1. Withdrawal
2. We shorten the length of the nail to 1 mm and make a round shape.
3. Use a 220-grit file to file the nail without applying strong pressure from above, lifting the scales of the nail plate, or use a 100-grit buff.
4. Let's do a manicure.
5. If we work with removers, we wash our hands with soap after working with them.
6. Degrease the nail with Nail Prep LUNAmoon. Do two approaches. Use 4 wipes for this (1 wipe for 5 fingers). First approach: wipe the surface of the nail. Second approach: take an orange stick, put a wipe on it and wipe everything in the cuticle area and in the sinuses.
7. We use LUNAmoon primer.
8. The Rubber Base LUNAmoon base coat is best applied with a flat gel brush. The movements should be rubbing. We draw all the sinuses of the nail and dry in the lamp for 60 seconds.
9. We erase the stickiness.
10. We install a form for building the free edge of the nail.
11. Apply Flower Gel, modeling the desired length and architecture.
12. Dry for 30 seconds, clamp the arch at the 20th second.
13. Dry in the lamp for another 90 seconds (total 120 seconds).
14. Remove the sticky layer and sand the mold.
15. Cover with top coat, dry for 120 seconds. After drying, do not wipe with anything to maintain the shine.

STRENGTHENING:

1. Withdrawal.
2. We do not file the nail shape or leave it 2 mm long, which we will remove after leveling.
3. Use a 220-grit file to file the nail without applying strong pressure from above, lifting the scales of the nail plate, or use a 100-grit buff.
4. Let's do a manicure.
5. If we work with removers, we wash our hands with soap after working with them.
6. Degrease the nail with Nail Prep LUNAmoon. Do two approaches. Use 4 wipes for this (1 wipe for 5 fingers). First approach: wipe the surface of the nail. Second approach: take an orange stick, put a wipe on it and wipe everything in the cuticle area and in the sinuses.
7. We use a primer if desired, but if the base for the substrate has sufficient acidity, then it is not needed.
8. The Rubber Base LUNAmoon base coat is best applied with a flat gel brush. The movements should be rubbing. We draw all the sinuses of the nail and dry in the lamp for 60 seconds.
9. We erase the stickiness.
10. Align. Make a 0.5–1 mm indent from the cuticle. Dry in the lamp for 60 seconds.
11. File the shape after it has been smoothed out. This is necessary so that a thickness forms on the edge of the nail that will hold the free edge.
12. If the nail was thin, it may curl, so be sure to cut 1 mm of the natural nail from the inside. In this case, there will be no peeling of the material. If the material is hard and the nail is very soft, the nail itself will begin to separate from the hard material from the free edge.
13. After filing, we erase the stickiness and cover with gel polish.
14. Cover with top coat, dry for 120 seconds. After drying, do not wipe with anything, as the shine may be lost.

Shelf life: 24 months. Store opened for no more than 18 months.
