FREE EDGE FORMS 120

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 

Create an ideal nail arch or as it's often referred to - a deep C curve using the Gellifique® Precision Free Edge.

The forms can be used with Acrylic Gel or Advance Builder Gel to create the desired shape, length and structure professionally and quickly!

These are great, reusable alternatives to regular nail forms. It is also a quick and simple way to create a "base" for sculpted french design.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

• Sanitize your own and your client's hands
• Ensure the client's nails are completely free from polish or gel
• Perform a dry manicure removing any non-living tissue with cuticle nippers

• Cleanse the nail with an Isopropyl Alcohol solution 
• Apply Gellifique Acid-Free Primer
• Apply Microcrystal Base Coat and cure for 30 sec with Gellifique Pro Cure 48W lamp

APPLYING THE TIP 

• Choose the correct size by placing the form to the free edge of the nail
• The form must cover lateral nail folds

Professional Tip

• When choosing the correct size if the form slightly bounces back when you gently press it down on the nail, then opt for the next size.

• Using the markings on the inside of the form apply a thin layer of product ensuring the walls of the form are coated evenly
• Remove excess material from the free edge of the form to avoid creating a 'border"
• Apply the tip to one-third of the natural nail and ensure the form is not angled downwards
• Hold it gently and flash cure for 30 seconds with the Gellifique Pro - Cure Mini Lamp
• Gently remove the form after the initial cure
• Cure 30 seconds in the Gellifique Pro-Cure 48 W

Professional Tip

• After the cure, if there is excess material on the sidewalls of the nail remove it using an E- file (if trained) or by using a nail file before creating the rest of the enhancement to avoid product lifting.

CREATE YOUR ENHANCEMENT 

• Remove inhibition layer with an Isopropyl Alcohol solution
• Gently file the enhancement into the desired shape
• Cleanse again to remove any dust
• Apply a thin coat of the product on the natural nail and the enhancement 
• Follow by applying a large "sculpting" bead of product to the apex of the nail (the highest point of the nail) and sculpt the product in the desired length and shape
• Cure in the Gellifique Pro Cure 48W Lamp for 60 sec. each layer if doing multiple

Professional Tip

• While sculpting with hard gel if you see the product distributing towards the lateral nail folds, making the nail appear wider than desired. Place the hand upside down to allow the product to self-level and distribute correctly. Use a Gellifique Liner Brush 7 mm to "guide" the product. 

REFINE

• Remove inhibition layer by cleansing with Isopropyl Alcohol 
• Refine, shape and file the free edge into the desired shape
• Cleanse as above to remove any dust 

GEL COLOUR or TOP COAT

• If applying gel polish colour there is no need to apply a Microcrystal Base Coat
• Apply gel polish colour as normal
• Apply Microcrystal Top Coat and cure for 30 sec with Gellifique Pro-Cure 48 W

PRODUCT MAINTENANCE
