Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Applying Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint is straightforward, but preparation is key for a flawless, long-lasting manicure:
- Prep Your Nails: Ensure nails are clean, dry, and free of any oils or old polish. File and shape as desired.
- Apply Basecoat: Apply one thin layer of your preferred basecoat. This helps protect your natural nails and provides a smooth surface for the color.
- Apply First Color Coat: Apply a thin, even coat of Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint in Calla Lily. Allow it to dry for 2-5 minutes.
- Apply Second Color Coat: Apply a second thin, even coat. This typically provides full coverage and intensifies the 'gel-look'. Allow it to dry completely.
- Apply Topcoat: For best results in shine and longevity, finish with a high-shine topcoat. Allow ample time for the topcoat to dry fully.
Compatibility
- Nail Types: This nail paint is compatible with both natural fingernails and artificial acrylic nails.
- Other Products: For optimal results, it is recommended to use with a quality basecoat and a high-shine topcoat, such as the Barry M Plumpy Topcoat.
Care
- Storage: Store the nail paint upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature thickening or drying.
- Usage: Ensure the cap is tightly sealed after each use to prevent air exposure, which can cause the polish to thicken.
- Disposal: Dispose of empty bottles according to local regulations for cosmetic waste.
