DARK SMART GEL is a medium-thick gel designed to strengthen, extend, and repair nails.
Description:
- The gel is easy to work with on both long and short nails;
- It is a high-temperature gel, so it can be buffed well;
- We recommend curing at a lower power setting and removing your hand if you feel a burning sensation;
- It is strong yet not brittle.
How is SMART GEL different from other builder gels?
- It has a slightly thinner consistency, yet it’s firm;
- It does not have a tacky layer;
- You don’t need to remove the tacky layer from the base before application when using the DARK base;
- There’s no need to remove the tacky layer before applying the top coat;
- Minimal risk of lifting.
Directions for use:
- Perform a manicure, buff and degrease the nail, then apply Dehydrator and Ultrabond;
- Apply a thin layer of SCOTCH BASE clear base coat using rubbing motions, then cure for 60 seconds;
- Perform strengthening or extension using DARK SMART GEL. Curing time: 60–120 seconds in the original lamp (depending on the gel’s pigmentation);
- If necessary, remove the sticky layer and file the nails;
- Apply the top coat and cure for 120 seconds.
Tips:
- It dries quickly when working with upper forms;
- The gel should be cured for 12–15 seconds;
- You can cure it briefly for 15 seconds;
- When applying, do not push the gel too far under the cuticle; there should be a smooth transition of the gel near the cuticle with minimal thickness;
- If you’re strengthening the nails, be sure to file your natural nail back by at least 1 mm from the inside to prevent lifting at the free edge;
- When working with base coats from other brands, we recommend removing the sticky layer from the base coat;
- The more transparent the gel, the stiffer it is;
- If the room is cold and the gel is too thick, you can warm the gel to a warm temperature (but not on the heating pad—instead, take the required amount of gel onto a palette separately);
- Gels with glitter must be stirred before use.
