Step-by-step instructions for applying "Smoke + Crystal Clear" Dipping Powder

Materials:

Smoke 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 a thin, even layer of Base Coat to the entire nail. The first coat should be quick and does not need to be too precise. Be careful not to touch the cuticles or surrounding skin, as this can cause lifting and affect adhesion.

Apply base coat to the entire nail and dip fully into “Crystal Clear.” Tap off excess powder and gently brush away any loose particles. This creates a clear base for the design.

Next, apply a thin layer of base coat to the upper half of the nail, shaping it like a French tip. Follow the natural curve of the nail and keep the lower portion of the nail uncovered.

Dip the coated upper section into “Smoke.” Tap off excess powder and gently brush away loose particles, making sure the French tip edge stays clean and defined.

Apply a second thin layer of base coat to the upper French tip section and repeat the dip into “Smoke” if additional opacity is needed. Brush thoroughly to remove any remaining loose powder.

To finish, apply a thin, even layer of base coat over the entire nail and dip fully into “Crystal Clear.” This encapsulates the Smoke French tip, smooths the surface, and adds a glossy, durable finish.

Be sure to cover the edges well while avoiding the surrounding skin for clean adhesion and a polished result.

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.

And voila! With these simple steps, you will create beautiful, long-lasting nails with the 'Smoke + Crystal Clear' dipping powder. Have fun with your beautiful nails!
