The LED lamp cures the gel polish in just 30 seconds, making it a quick and convenient option for busy individuals.

  • Start by pushing back your cuticles gently to expose the nail plate.
  • File your nails into your desired shape, ensuring there are no sharp edges.
  • Wipe each nail with an alcohol-soaked pad to remove any oils and ensure the gel polish adheres properly.

Applying the Base Coat

The base coat is the foundation of your gel manicure, promoting adhesion and preventing staining. Here's how to apply it:

  1. Paint a thin layer of base coat onto each nail, leaving a small gap from the cuticle and the free edge.
  2. Cure the base coat under the LED lamp for 30 seconds.

Applying Gel Polish

Now that your nails have a base coat, it's time to apply the gel polish. Follow these steps for a flawless application:

  1. Paint a thin layer of gel polish onto each nail, starting at the cuticle and working your way to the free edge. Ensure you leave a small gap at the cuticle and the free edge to prevent lifting.
  2. Cure the gel polish under the LED lamp for 30 seconds.
  3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 for a total of two thin layers of gel polish.

Applying the Top Coat

The top coat seals in your gel manicure, providing a high-shine finish and protecting your nails. Here's how to apply it:

  1. Paint a thin layer of top coat onto each nail, ensuring you cover the entire nail surface.
  2. Cure the top coat under the LED lamp for 30 seconds.
  3. Wipe each nail with an alcohol-soaked pad to remove any tackiness and reveal your high-shine gel manicure.

Removing Gel Polish

When it's time to remove your gel manicure, follow these steps to minimize damage to your natural nails:

AD
  • Soak cotton pads in acetone and place one on each nail, wrapping each finger in aluminum foil to secure the pad.
  • Leave the pads on your nails for 10-15 minutes to allow the acetone to break down the gel polish.
  • Gently scrape off the gel polish using a cuticle pusher or orange wood stick, working from the cuticle to the free edge.
  • Wipe each nail with an alcohol-soaked pad to remove any remaining acetone and reveal your natural nails.

With this comprehensive guide, you're now equipped to achieve stunning, long-lasting gel nails at home with Olive & June's innovative system. Happy polishing!
