Troubleshooting

Polish appears streaky or uneven.

Ensure nails are clean and dry before application. Apply thinner coats and allow each coat to dry sufficiently before applying the next. The `wide, easy-to-use brush` is designed for smooth application; ensure you're using it to cover the nail in 2-3 strokes.

Manicure chips quickly.

Always use a good quality basecoat and finish with a topcoat, ideally the Barry M Plumpy Topcoat, as recommended for `best results`. Ensure nail edges are sealed by swiping the brush along the nail tip. Avoid exposing freshly painted nails to water or harsh activities immediately after painting.

Polish looks dull, not `ultra shiny`.

Make sure you are applying two full coats of the Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint. For the ultimate `gel-look finish`, ensure you use a clear, glossy topcoat, such as the Barry M Plumpy Topcoat, which is specifically formulated to enhance shine.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup and Application

To achieve the `perfect manicure every time` with your Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint, follow these steps:

  1. Prepare Nails: Ensure nails are clean, dry, and free of any old polish or oils. Gently push back cuticles and file nails to your desired shape.
  2. Apply Basecoat: Apply one thin, even layer of your favorite basecoat. This helps protect your natural nails and provides a smooth surface for the polish. Allow to dry completely.
  3. Apply First Color Coat: Using the `wide, easy-to-use brush`, apply a thin, even coat of Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint in 'Cactus'. Start from the base of the nail, stroke up to the tip, and ensure good coverage on the sides. Let it dry for a few minutes.
  4. Apply Second Color Coat: Apply a second thin, even coat. This will build up the `high-coverage` and `ultra shiny` finish. Allow to dry completely.
  5. Apply Topcoat: For `best results` and enhanced `long lasting` wear, apply one coat of Barry M Plumpy Topcoat. This will seal the color, add extra shine, and further mimic a gel-look finish.
  6. Allow to Dry: Give your nails ample time to dry fully to prevent smudging or chipping.

Compatibility

This nail paint is `suitable for both natural and acrylic nails`, offering versatility for various users.

Care

  • Storage: Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent thickening and preserve the formula.
  • Shake Well: Before each use, gently roll the bottle between your palms to mix the polish without creating air bubbles.
  • Clean Edges: If polish gets on your skin, clean it immediately with a cotton swab dipped in nail polish remover for a neat finish.
