Step-by-step instructions for applying "Cinderella + Medium Pink + Crystal Clear" Dipping Powder

Materials:

• Cinderella Dipping Powder
• Medium Pink Dipping Powder
• Crystal Clear Dipping Powder
• Base coat
• Activator
• Top coat
• Nail file and buffer
• Dusting brush or soft brush

Preparation

File your nails into the desired shape and gently push back your cuticles.

For optimal adhesion, lightly roughen/match the natural nails with a buffer block or the fine side of a file before application.

Be sure to remove invisible cuticle and skin debris as well, to avoid lifting.

Do not apply oils or creams before use.

Step 1: Base coat

Apply an even, thin layer of base coat across the entire nail, making sure to cover the edges and cuticle area without flooding them. While the base coat is still tacky, take a small, fluffy application brush and pick up a small amount of “Cinderella” dipping powder. Hold your brush at about a 45-degree angle and gently tap the powder onto one side of the nail, working in light motions to distribute the color evenly. Concentrate more product toward the outer edge to build saturation, then softly feather the pigment toward the middle for a diffused, blended transition.

Next, using a clean brush, pick up “Medium Pink” and begin tapping the powder onto the opposite side of the nail. As you move closer to the center, use a lighter touch to blend where the two shades meet, creating a seamless, two-tone gradient that softly merges together. Take your time blending both shades to achieve that balanced, airy transition without harsh lines.

After completing the color application, gently tap off excess powder and use a clean, soft brush to remove any loose particles from around the nail bed and sidewalls. Apply another thin, even layer of base coat over the entire nail and immediately dip into “Crystal Clear” to encapsulate the design. This layer locks in the color gradient and gives the nail a smooth, even structure for a high-gloss finish later.

Step 2: Base Coat & Color Powder

Repeat step 1 for optimal coverage, adhesion and beautiful and stunning color intensity.

Step 3: Activator Coat

Apply enough Activator Coat over the entire nail surface, edges and also at the tip. The Activator is the most important step in the application process because it seals and binds the layers to the nail, preventing air bubbles from forming and ensuring long-lasting adhesion. Allow the Activator Coat to dry for at least two minutes.

Step 4: Filing & Polishing

Now you can use the fine side of the file or a buffer to buff away all bumps and imperfections and bring the nails to the desired shape and thickness. It is important to file carefully so that you do not damage the surface and nails.

Step 5: Activator Coat

Repeat step 3. Again, apply enough Activator Coat to the entire nail and its perimeter to seal the layers optimally. Then allow the Activator Coat to dry for at least two minutes. To make sure the Activator Coat is dry, you can clean the surface of the nail with a paper towel after 2 minutes. This is to prevent the Top Coat from curing due to contamination.

Allow 2-3 minutes of waiting time between Top Coat and Activator Coat.

Step 6: Top Coat

Apply a thin layer of Top Coat evenly with 2-3 quick strokes and allow it to dry for at least two minutes.

Step 7: Top Coat

Repeat step 6. Apply a second, thin coat of Top Coat to the nails. Then let this dry for 2-3 minutes.
