Triple Waves
1. Apply a base layer of a sheer purple. We’ve used Calgel Lavender Milk Builder. Ensure a total cure of 2 minutes before applying a second layer.
2. Using Calgel Sundae, create a swirl down the centre and just off-centre of the nail using a striping nail art brush. Fill in the space using a filbert #6 brush. Cure fully.
3. Repeat step 2.
4. Using Calgel Jelly Bean, create a second swirl on the inside of the green with a striping nail art brush. Fill in the space using a filbert #6 brush. Cure fully.
5. Repeat step 4.
6. Finish with Gel&Go 2in1, you can apply it slightly thicker to correct any bumps. You can also finish with a small build layer of Base & Build if required.
3d French
1. Apply a base layer of a sheer pink. We’ve used PRO COLOUR Whisper Builder. Ensure a total cure of 30 seconds before applying a second layer.
2. Using a striping nail art brush, create a French tip using PRO COLOUR Bon Bon and fill in the space with a Filbert #4 Brush. Cure fully.
3. Apply a layer of Gel&Go 2in1 over the entire nail and cure for 60 seconds.
4. Wipe the nail with Guard to remove the inhibition layer.
5. Using a striping nail art brush, create 3D shapes to the tip of the nail using iZ Pro Base & Build, making sure to freeze cure in between. Cure the entire nail fully for an extra 10 seconds.
