When to Apply:
Structure should be applied AFTER you have applied the Gelish Foundation and cured it. For the best application, wipe the tacky layer off of your foundation with a lint-free alcohol wipe prior to applying Structure.
How to Apply:
Applying Structure is much like applying any polish except it’s a bit thicker. To apply Structure, dip your brush into the pot and pick up just a small round ball of the gel, and apply a thin coat to the nail just as you would a polish. Cure under a UV light for 2 minutes, or 30 seconds with a LED light.
Repeat this process with a second thin coat if desired.
After your Structure is cured, proceed with the regular Gelish polish application.
Tips:
- When you are curing your nails in the light, remember to cover your pot of Structure and the brush, or move them away from the light because they could harden!
- To clean your brush after applying Structure, just wipe it off with a lint-free wipe and some alcohol. Always store your brush in a dark place so it doesn’t harden in the sun light.
- Be sure to avoid getting Structure or gel polish on the cuticle area. If you do get some of the product on your cuticles, clean it off with a brush and acetone (or alcohol) prior to curing under the light. Curing with the product on your cuticles can cause premature peeling/lifting of your manicure. If applied cleanly, your gel manicure should last at least 2 weeks.
