Professional Fully Comprehensive Acrylic Nail Art Kit – 34 Piece

How To Do Your Acrylic Nails at Home…You will need a UV Lamp to dry your UV Base and Top Coat. You won’t need to put the actual Acrylic polymer and monomer under the UV Lamp because they will chemically react when mixed together and naturally harden when exposed to air. It takes about 10-15 minutes for Acrylics to dry.

Step One: Nail Prep
The first thing you will need to do for a basic acrylic application is to prep.
Remember, you always want to be sure that you prep correctly because if you don’t do this right your nails are going to have lifted and you’re going to have problems.
With prepping, you first want to sanitize your hands and make sure they’re nice and clean. Use the nail brush with soap and water and scrub your nails underneath. Don’t be too rough!
Then you’re going to use a Cuticle Pusher and push back your Cuticles.
Next, you are going to want to go ahead and remove the shine on the nail and you can do that with a sanding ban on low-speed.
You want to lightly tap the nail so that you’re not pushing into the nail you’re not putting any pressure on it. You just want to take off the shine. Use the dusting brush to remove all dust from your nails.

Step Two: Choose Your Tips
In the next step, you’re going to get started with your tips apply if you will be using the tips.
I want to give you a few pointers on correct sizing for the tips; you don’t want your tips to be too small and you don’t want to have to push down or they will not fit correctly.
If your tips are too big, they are going to pop up if you try to glue them down.
Similarly, if your tips go past the nail on the sidewalls, it is going to cause irritation and not look very good.
Essentially, your tips will not look that great if they lift. So, it’s important when choosing your tips that you get the proper size, you want them to fit nicely when you place them down on your nail.
Plus, you can always shape them if you want a more rounded tip.

Step Three: Tip Application
You don’t want to have to put too much pressure on them for them to fit.
You want to look at the side and make sure it’s not going over the edge of the nail and when you’re applying it you don’t want to completely cover the nail because then you’re not going to have a good foundation or ratio of acrylic to your nail plate (and it can pop off).
You want to place the tip as far down as possible but still have enough room for it to be secure.
Remember, you don’t want to put too much pressure when placing your tip on each nail because then you’ll get a tip that’s facing down and it’s going to be curving too much.
Instead, you just want to lightly place it on there.
Now, you’re going to go ahead and repeat this process to the rest of your nails.

Step Four: Shape the Tips
For this, I like to pre-shape my nails before my acrylic application.
This way it just goes smoother and I can get a good idea of how the nail is going to look when it’s finished.
For this design, you first need to file in the sides and repeat that process on the rest of the nails.
So once you are done shaping the nail to roughly how you want, you can then move on to using a sanding band.
This will help you to lightly take the ledge off of the tip and make this smooth.
The reason for doing this is that you want a smooth foundation to apply the acrylic on. It also helps and prevents breaking and lifting.
So, with the same sanding band you will then need to buff the tip and make it a little rougher.

Step Five: Use a PH Bond (Dehydrator)
Next, you are going to use a pH Bond also known as a dehydrator and you’re going to apply it to the nail plate.
What this does is dehydrate the nail and remove any excess oils. This is because you want a really dry nail plate for the acrylic application so you don’t get lifting.

Step Six: Apply Primer
Now you’re going to apply Primer. Primer is essential for acrylic application and it is going to create a perfect foundation for your acrylic to adhere to your nail and this will also prevent lifting. Without your Primer, your nails are just going to pop right off.
So let’s start with a Wet Bead…
When you pick up a Bead you dip your brush in your Monomer and you want to push it down and get rid of all the bubbles.
This is called burping your brush and what this does is prevent bubbles in your acrylic when you apply it.

Next, wipe off the excess Monomer and all your liquid is going to be at the top of the brush. You want to turn that and dip it into your powder. A Wet Bead is going to spread and what these are primarily used for is around the Cuticle area when you want it to really sync with your natural nail.
You are in control of your acrylic application so if it’s not looking the way you want it to just wipe it off and start over.
One Bead Application:
You first want to fill your brush with Monomer and you’re going to pick up a pretty good-sized Bead to look glossy.
You’re then going to place it at the top, not too far from the Cuticle.
Now you’re going to go in with the tip of your brush and you’re going to lightly feather it up into the top area, making sure not to get any of the product on your skin.

Then you’re going to use the body of the brush to drag that all the way down and by doing a smooth application of acrylic it cuts down on your filing which makes life easier.
So when I’m doing an acrylic application, I prefer the one Bead method, just because it’s faster and I can get to my art sooner.
So once you’re done placing the Bead you allow it to dry. A good way to determine if your acrylic is dry and ready for filing is if you just tap it. If you can hear the clicking sound the nail is dry.

Step Seven: Finish Filing/Shaping
Then you’re going to go in and file and shape.
If you file your natural nail into a slope this is ideal for proper retention of the acrylic.

Step Eight: Design
Now that you’ve applied your acrylics you can either: Apply the Top Coat to ensure your manicure is sealed in to enhance their look and feel. This also extends the wear. (Recommended), Or you can start straight away with your polishes and your art. (not recommended)
Topcoat is the perfect foundation for your nails whether you want to elaborate on this or you just like them how they are.
