Use a unique mixture of clear powder and glitter to create a backdrop for the sweetest foral manicure that customers will love!
- Prep and Base Layer:
-
- Start by applying a thin layer of no-top-needed LeChat Gel Polish color 057 Lucia to the entire nail.
- Cure the nail under a UV/LED nail lamp for 60 seconds. This sets the base color.
- Second Layer Application:
- Apply another thin layer of color 057 Lucia, but do not cure this layer just yet. This will help the glitter adhere better.
- Prepare Glitter Mix:
- Mix equal parts (1/2) of Perfect Match 3in1 french color powder- Clear and fine iridescent glitter such as Crystallite Glitter EFFX in a small container. Set this mix aside for the next step.
- Add Some Sparkle:
- Sprinkle the prepared glitter mix over the wet layer of 057 Lucia, making sure to cover the entire nail.
- Cure the nail under the UV/LED lamp to set the glitter.
- Check the Curing:
- Ensure the nail is completely cured and no longer sticky. This creates a smooth base for your nail art.
- Start the Tulip Design:
- Using a small brush and LeChat Gel Polish color 083 Taffy, paint a droplet shape on the nail. This will be the base of your tulip.
- Do not cure this layer yet.
- Add Depth to the Tulip:
- Use LeChat Gel Polish color 035 Piper to refine the shape of the droplet and add some shadow. This gives the tulip a more three-dimensional look. Now cure this layer.
- Define the Petals:
- Paint over the droplet shape with LeChat Gel Polish color 013 Jane to define the outer petal of the tulip. This layer adds detail to your design.
- Blend the Colors:
- Before Curing, add LeChat Gel Polish color 035 Piper over the previous layer to blend the colors and create a seamless transition. Cure the nail again.
- Draw the Leaves:
- Use LeChat Gel Polish color 084 Jenny, to draw leaves around the tulip. This adds to the floral design.
- Add LeChat Gel Polish color 032 Chameleon to the leaves for detailed highlights and definition.
- Add Final Details:
- Go over any areas that need additional detailing to perfect your design.
- Draw the Stem:
- Using LeChat Gel Polish color 084 Jenny, draw the stem of the tulip.
- Cure the nail once more.
