Application

On Gel-X® Tips

1. Prepare the surface of the Gel-X® Tip with Gel-X Prep® or an e-file.
2. Apply an even coat of Prismatic Gel Couleur and cure under an LED lamp for 30 seconds.
3. For a more intense effect, apply a second coat and cure again for 30 seconds.
4. Finish with Builder Top Gelcoat or Non-Wipe Top Gelcoat and cure for 30–60 seconds.

On Natural Nails

1. Lightly buff the natural nail, prep with pH Bonder, and allow it to air dry. Optionally apply Acid-Free Gel Primer.
2. Apply a thin layer of Base Gelcoat or Base Gelcoat X and cure for 30 seconds.
3. Apply Prismatic Gel Couleur and cure for 30 seconds.
4. If desired, apply a second coat and cure again for 30 seconds.
5. Finish with Builder Top Gelcoat or Non-Wipe Top Gelcoat and cure for 30–60 seconds.

Removal

Carefully remove the top coat and color layer using an e-file. Then soak the nails in 100% pure acetone for 10–20 minutes until the gel becomes soft and jelly-like. Gently remove the softened gel using a remover tool or cuticle pusher. Do not force the product off. Lightly buff the natural nail and finish by applying cuticle oil.

Recommendations

• For a more intense color shift, apply Prismatic Gel Couleur over a complementary base color.
• For an ultra-glossy, multidimensional finish, pair with Builder Top Gelcoat.
• For a bold Y2K-inspired look, finish with Heavenly Top Gelcoat for an iridescent mirror-like shine.
