Gel Lac Metallic Effect - 018.

 
Vibrant colours with metallic effects !

Metallic effects are polishes with metallic and glittering sheens having a fluid texture, similar to that of a liquid pigment. They can be used both in semi-permanent manicure to color a nail and for all nails, for 3D relief decorations, as well as in various other types of decorations on gel manicure or on a semi-permanent gel polish nail.

Use your imagination for surprising combinations !

This pollish does not meet the classic characteristics of a semi-permanent polish. We could describe it as a kind of liquid metallic pigment. It is not a UV / LED gel polish that requires drying (curing) in the lamp. The metallic effect is only fixed in the lamp AND dries in the air. The name "polish" was only considered appropriate because it is applied by brush like a conventional polish.
The metallic effect is ideal for gel modelling, as a colour all over the nail to achieve the mirror effect or as a decoration for nail art with highlighted baroque designs. It can also be applied to manicures with a semi-permanent polish.
Metallic Vibes & Styling Gel Technique :
 
I. Application method for manicures with semi-permanent polish
1. The natural nail is prepared according to the standard method : the cuticles are pushed back and cleaned, the nail is sanded with a buffer file and dusted.
2. Adhesion is achieved either by applying a layer of base gel or by applying a coat of Nail Bonder.
3. Apply a layer of Styling gel / cure 2 min under UV, 30 to 60 seconds under LED.
4. Apply a coat of metallic effect. The polish is fixed in the lamp for 2 minutes and air-dried for an additional 2 minutes. If necessary, after the first coat of dry polish has been applied, a second coat is applied.
The polish is applied with fast movements (because it tends to dry quite quickly on the brush during application) and must be well levelled.
5. The nails are sealed with a layer (or two) of Top Coat, (or with the Gloss & Go Flexible top coat gel) and it is cured for 2-3 minutes under UV or 60-90 sec under LED. Degrease with cleaner.
II. Surface application method on gel / acrylic technical nails
1. Nails are modelled / built according to the standard method. We end up buffering and dusting.
2. Same as from point 3 of the method described above. In the case of gel modeling, nails can also be sealed with Gloss & Go Flexible.
III. Application method between the modelling gel layers (encapsulated baroque or 3D design)
1. Nails are prepared according to the standard method.
2. Apply a well levelled modelling gel / cure / degreasing gel with cleaner.
3. On the shiny surface of the gel, we draw with a non-sticky gel paint, with relief motifs in the baroque style / cure.
4. Apply one coat (or two if necessary) of metallic effect. Dry 2 minutes under lamp and 2 minutes in air each coat separately.
5. Apply a new layer of gel and model the apex / cure / degrease with cleaner / final modeling / finish.
IV. Application method for 3D surface decoration
This method of decoration can be done on the surface in the case of gel modelling and those with a semi-permanent nail as follows :
Manicure with semi-permanent
1. Repeat all steps of method I up to and including step 3.
2. Make the desired decor with Cupio non-sticky gel paint / cure for 2 minutes.
3. Apply a well levelled coat (two if necessary) of metallic effect polish / drying 2 minutes under lamp and 2 minutes in air for each coat.
4. Seal with the top coat or Gloss & Go Flexible / cure / degrease with cleaner.
Gel modelling
1. Nails are modelled / built according to the standard method. We end up buffering and dusting.
2. Apply a layer of Styling gel (if not, you can apply a thin layer of a well levelled Builder gel) / cure for 2 min.
3. On the glossy surface, the desired decoration is achieved with a Cupio non-sticky gel paint / cure 2 min.
4. Apply a well levelled coat (two if necessary) of metallic effect polish / drying 2 minutes under lamp and 2 minutes in air for each coat.
5. Seal with Gloss & Go Flexible or any other top coat gel with dispersion, provided that it does not change the color of the metal polish.
Notes :
- It is very important to dry the polish sufficiently before sealing.
- The perfect appearance of the mirror is improved according to the smooth and shiny surface of the nails. Watch out !!! Do not apply to the dispersion layer of the base gel or modelling gel. It is applied only to the surface of the top gel (without dispersion layer) or the gel layer degreased with Cleaner.
It is recommended to work on two fingers, always alternating left / right.
