The new ON-OFF Gel technique allows to apply color on the natural nail in a semi-permanent way. With a much longer durability than a traditional nail polish.

Technique of intermediate durability between traditional glazing and UV color gels.

4. Give the desired length and shape to the natural nail with the blue 120/240 padded file.

5. Remove cuticle using the Cuticle Pusher or Cuticle Separator Brush.
6. File the nail plate with the Flash finisher file in a superficial way to leave the nail plate porous and facilitate the adhesion of the gels.

7. Apply a layer of acid-free Primer with the help of Brush No. 0, to slightly degrease the nail plate.

8. Apply a thin layer of Base Coat On-Off as a glaze leaving a separation of one millimeter between cuticle and product sealing the free edge.

14. After the drying time has elapsed, moisten a Finishing Wipe in Gel Finisher and slide it over the nail plate to remove the excess product.
