Nail Labo introduces its new LED soak-off gel system, Presto. Using the latest technology in the dental industry, Presto takes just five seconds to cure, making a full set of gel nails in under 20 minutes a reality. The LED lights have an almost infinite lifetime, says the company, so techs will likely never have to change the bulbs.


1. Prep the nail surface with a 180/220-grit Sponge Buffer, then spritz the nail bed with Nail Cleanser and wipe off with cotton pad.



2. Apply one coat of Clear Gel and cure with LED light in only five seconds.



3. Apply one coat of Color Gel and cure with LED light for five seconds. Repeat this step once or twice, as needed.



4. Apply one coat of Top Gel and cure with LED light for 20 seconds. Then spritz Gel Remover and wipe the uncured gel off the nail for a clean finish. Apply cuticle oil, if desired.



5. To remove, sand off the top coat using a 150-grit Zebra file.



6. Apply Gel Remover to nail using cotton pad and cover the nail with aluminum foil.



7. After 10 minutes, take off the foil and check to see that the gel is dissolved. Remove gel using an orangewood stick and apply cuticle oil to rehydrate the nail bed.
