Ask the tech

Four habits that make every set last

Cure in thin layers

Thin coats cure evenly under any lamp and prevent wrinkling or heat spikes.

Match tip to nail bed

Size each tip edge to edge before gluing — a correct fit stops lifting at the sides.

Prime only the nail plate

Keep primer off the skin and cuticle area to avoid lifting and irritation.

Brush, don’t blow

A soft dust brush clears filings without scattering them back onto the work.
