From Couch to Salon-Level Nails with OPI GELement


Application

1. Shake Each Bottle: Always shake base, color, and top coats for 30 seconds.
2. Apply Thin Coats: Start with a thin base coat, sealing the edge. Cure under the lamp for 60 seconds.
3. Color (1st Coat): Drain excess polish, cap the free edge, and apply a thin coat down the center and sides. Cure for 60 seconds. Repeat for thumb separately.
4. Second Color Coat: Repeat application and curing for additional coverage. Multiple thin layers are always better than one thick layer.
5. Top Coat: Apply the no-wipe top coat, again in a thin layer, sealing the edge. Cure for 60 seconds.
6. Repeat for the Other Hand: Complete each step for one hand before moving on—this improves control and reduces mistakes.
7. Avoid Getting Gel on Skin: Careful edge work means less risk of lifting or irritation.

The “juice cleanse” method (named for loading product on just one side of the brush and draining excess) is emphasized for precise, even application that’s less likely to flood the cuticles or create thick, hard-to-cure layers..
