The How To Do Anything Better Guide 949.837.8849 www.biosculpturegel.com sponsored by MASTER A LONGER-LASTING Gel Manicure That Nurtures the Natural Nail Clients want you to give them gel-color for its durability. You want to give them a natural nail manicure that keeps their nails strong and protected. Is it possible to do both? Yes it is, if you use the right method and products. The Bio Sculpture Gel gel manicure system includes pre- treatment of the natural nail with Vitamin Dose; this step ensures that the nails are receiving important nutrients, and the formulation will not cause lifting. Bio Sculpture Gel overlays last as long as 4 weeks, and add strength to the natural nail. Here is the simple 5-step service to get you started: 1. Prepare the natural nail: Remove nail polish with Bio Sculpture Polish Remover on a Lint Free Nail Wipe. Apply Bio Sculpture Cuticle Softener/ Remover to the cuticles. Gently push back the cuticles with a Multi-Use Metal Tool, trimming only the dead tissue. Trim and reshape the nail if necessary. 2. Drip a few drops of Bio Sculpture Vitamin Dose onto a Nail Wipe and press onto the center of the nail plate of each finger. Repeat this process using the same dampened nail wipe on all ten fingers. Make sure not to flood the cuticle and nail walls to prevent lifting; only a little product is needed on each nail. The Vitamin Dose will penetrate the nail plate and any remaining product will evaporate. 3. Do not sanitize the nail again after the Vitamin Dose treatment. Continue immediately with a first layer of Bio Sculpture Clear Gel: Start with a clean brush to create an even application near and around the cuticle. Using a 20-degree brush angle (this creates lighter pressure), apply the Clear Gel with long, even overlapping strokes. Starting at the cuticle area, stroke down and past the free edge for a smooth and shiny finish. Remove any traces of gel that might have touched the skin before curing, using a Metal Pick. Cure for 30 seconds under an LED or 2 minutes under a UV-A lamp. 4. Apply a thin first layer of Bio Sculpture Color Gel. Cure for 30 seconds under an LED or 2 minutes under a UV-A lamp. Check your work and fix any problem areas if needed. Apply a second layer of Color Gel to make sure the color is consistent and the natural nail's free edge is sealed. Cure for 30 seconds under an LED or 2 minutes under a UV-A lamp. 5. As a final layer, apply Bio Sculpture UV-Gel Top Coat for an extra shiny finish. Cure for 30 seconds under an LED or 2 minutes under a UV-A lamp. After curing, remove the tacky layer with a nail wipe soaked in Nail Cleanser/Sanitizer. 2 4 3 5
