Light Elegance Gels are engineered to perform well on any type of nail, from full-coverage color saturation to free edge-extended Frenches, and even 3-D sculpting. Light Elegance gels come in both soak-off and traditional gels and are made to be durable and strong, yet flexible and supportive. The gels are available in a wide range of colors including glitters and metallics.

1. Apply two thin coats of Light Elegance Made in Maui Gel Polish. Using your #4 Oval Brush, take a dollop of Light Elegance 3-D White Gel and roll it into a ball toward the middle of the nail. Do not cure.

2. Push your #4 Oval Brush into the dollop of 3-D White Gel and pull toward the free edge. Do not cure.

3. Repeat this four more times in a circular pattern to create your flower petals. Using your striping brush, drag in between the petals toward the center of the flower. Do not cure.

4. Starting in the middle of the petal, pull outward with your striping brush and repeat on each petal. Cure for two minutes.

5. Dip your striping brush into Light Elegance 3-D Purple Gel and roll into a tiny ball in the center of the nail.

6. Drop a tiny rhinestone into the center and use the handle of your #4 Oval Brush to press it into the 3-D purple gel. Cure for two minutes.

7. For a little extra sparkle, add a small dab of Light Elegance Crystal Glitter Gel to each petal. Cure for two minutes.

8. Put a thin coat of Light Elegance Top Gloss over the whole nail. Cure for two minutes.
