Happy Memorial Day! Share your patriotism with client’s by offering a stars and stripes design. Follow these steps from Gelish to find out how to execute it.

1. Prep the nails for Gelish application. Apply a thin coat of Hot Rod Red diagonally across half of the nail bed. Cure in the Pro 45 Led Light for 45 seconds. Repeat for full coverage.

2. Using Ocean Wave, apply a thin coat diagonally across the other half of the nail. Cure for 45 seconds. Repeat for full coverage.

3. Using a Gelish Mini Striper Brush and Arctic Freeze, draw four thin stripes diagonally along the nail. Cure for 45 seconds.

4. Next, carefully apply small silver stars to the nail. Apply a thin coat of Top It Off sealer gel to the entire nail, making sure to cap the free edge. Cure for 45 seconds. Remove the tacky residue from the nail using Nail Surface Cleanse and Wipe It Off lint-free strips. Massage Nourish Cuticle Oil into the skin.
