- Size the GELevate Soft Gel Tips to all 10 nails, making sure the tips cover the nail from side to side and fit at the cuticle line.
- Apply a coat of Bondex Bonding Agent and allow to dry (skip this step if a HEMA-free service is desired).
- Apply a thin coat of GELevate 4-in-1 Builder Gel to all 5 nails, leaving a thin free margin around the perimeter of the nail. Cure for 30 seconds in the Star Light Lamp.
- Apply a small amount of GELevate 4-in-1 Builder Gel to the inside of the tip.
- Align the cuticle line of the tip to the natural nail at a 45° angle and gently rock the tip forward, pushing the gel to the free edge of the nail.
- Flash cure the nail for 5 seconds with the Lightning Flash Cure Gel Lamp.
- Repeat steps 5-6 on remaining nails until all nails are complete. Cure for 30 seconds in the Star Light Lamp. Repeat on the other hand.
