Product Questions & Answers

 

What is High Shine & How does it work?  High Shine is a soakable base and top in one. It is cured in UV or LED light. UV cure time is 3 min or LED is 60 seconds. It MUST be fully cured or you can experience peeling.  High Shine can be used as a base, pigment or glitter press and then used as a top! Comes in a refill size to maximize your profits. Can be used as a top gel for acrylics or hard gels and it has killer shine for the entire time between appointments!! *Dispersion layer must be removed after full cure with nail cleanser.

 

Elegant Glass Nails Acryle Acrylic-  Our acrylic line is different in that the monomer determines the set time versus the powder.  The set time is 20-30 seconds and it will be as hard as it will ever be in 7 minutes.  Most products on the market take 24 hours to be completely cured. It is self-leveling and dries to a satin finish.  It has impeccable strength. It is a perfect particle blend so you will not experience the product compacting or clumping. Optimal temp to work the product is 72 degrees. The colors available are: Clearvue, Sheer Pink, Nordic White and Barely Pink. Available sizes are 2oz, 4oz or 16oz.

 

Fusion- What Why How? STOP lifting in it's tracks- Fusion is our universal primer and it is better known as a MUST HAVE for any enhancements that you put on nails.  It is a keratin bonding agent that acts as a double sided sticky tape to adhere the enhancement to your nail.  This product can be used under acrylics, gels, soakable gels (only on the free edge if you plan to soak easily), or polish. To use Fusion you want to apply 2 coats to the surface of the nail that has been properly prepped and cleansed using our nail cleanser. Air will activate the "sticky" creating a better bond yet.  This product will stop lifting in its tracks. Available in a 1/4oz salon size or a 2oz refill to maximize your income potential.

How do I get my Stones & Bows to STAY??  I have the perfect combo. Resin Gel and Spray Activator.  Your stones won't budge. The key is that you have to us them both.  If they are not used together they will NOT have the strength they need.  Apply the resin gel and attach your stones.  Finish it by spraying 2-3 sprays of Spray Activator and TADA! No more missing stones.
