Prep for Adhesion
Proper prep is crucial for maximum product bonding. Begin by pushing back the cuticles, trimming the nails, and filing the free edge to shape. Gently buff the surface of the nail plate, then clean thoroughly with 99% Isopropyl Alcohol or OPI N.A.S. 99 Cleansing Solution to eliminate all trace oils and dust.
Base Coat Foundation
First, shake your base bottle well to distribute the formula. When applying the Infinite Shine Gel-Like Base Coat, always paint the free edge of your nail first to cap it, then sweep a thin layer across the full nail plate. Let it air-dry for 1 to 2 minutes.
Color Application
Shake your chosen Infinite Shine crème or sheer base color thoroughly. Apply the color using the exact same technique: paint the edge first to seal it, then sweep a thin, even layer across the nail. Let dry for 1 to 2 minutes, and repeat the step for a second coat of color.
The Glaze Transformation
To apply your Infinite Shine Glaze Topper, gently roll the bottle between your palms instead of shaking vigorously (this prevents micro-bubbles from ruining the glass-like finish). Paint the edge of the nail first, then sweep a single thin layer of the glaze topper smoothly across the color coat. Let dry for 1 to 2 minutes.
Lock in the Shine
Finish the service by applying the Gel-Like Top Coat. Paint the edge of the nail first, then sweep a thin layer across the nail. Allow 1 to 2 minutes to dry. This specific top coat initiates a continuous gel-like reaction with the underlying layers, sealing your glaze effect under a plump, scratch-resistant barrier.
