Press the glitter flat with your finger and cure for one minute. Apply an additional coat of UV Phoria to all the nails and cure.


6. Apply UV Phoria to the underside of the nail and apply glitter and cure. Hold nails with palms up in UV lamp. With the buffer side of the Shaper file, refine any edges where you can feel the glitter and make them perfectly smooth.
