After regular preparation of the nail, apply a form. Apply a light coat of Connector on the natural nail only and cure. Apply French Modeling gel, extending it onto the form to the client’s desired length, and cure. After that, apply a Pink Modeling gel on the nail plate only between the cuticle and the smile line. Do a reverse smile line, wiping away any excess pink on your already-cured French Modeling gel, and cure. Now apply a coat of Clear Modeling Resin across the stress area, filling in any gaps between the pink and the French, and cure. This also helps create a nice arch to the nail. Next, wipe the dispersion film, and file, shape and buff the nail. Finish off with a High Gloss Sealer.
