Glitter dip nail colors online shopping from dipnailpolish.com? Now you’re really ready for your dip mani! If you’ve familiarized yourself with your kit, you know that you first start with an application of the base coat. This should be applied thinly and evenly coat to about 3/4th of your nail (which we’ll get more into later) before – and we can’t stress this enough – immediately dipping into the bottle of powder at a 45-degree angle. The base coat dries up really fast, so it’s a good idea to have the bottle of powder next to your finger when doing this. In line with this, it’s also a good idea to shake the bottle of powder before you even start applying the base coat, to loosen it up.
Buff the entire nail (natural & faux tip) with 180 grit buffer just enough to create a rough surface for the dip product to adhere to. Over-buffing will thin your natural nail, which we don’t want. Moderation is key. You can also use the buffer to gently push back your cuticles from your nail plates. PRO TIP: Especially buff down the area where the faux nail tip meets the natural nail to an even surface. The goal is to smooth out the faux nail tip to the natural nail to create a nice, even foundation for smooth dip powder application. Before starting dip application, sweep a generous coat of Step 1 Bond to the entire natural nail area, especially at the line where the faux nail tip meets the natural nail. This gets rid of oiliness that may prevent dip products from adhering.
Dampen a paper towel with alcohol or nail sanitizer. Rub the moistened towel over your nails and fingers – from the closest knuckle to your cuticles, and then down towards your nails. This step cleans and dehydrates your nails in preparation for a dip manicure. Trust me, you don’t want to seal in any bacteria or grime. If you’re wanting to extend the length of your nails, you should find a tip for each nail that covers no more than a third of your nail bed. Each tip should stretch across the whole width of your nail without overlapping onto your skin. Coat the tip wells with tip resin, and hold each one to the tip of the nail at a 45 degree angle for twenty seconds. Discover extra info at dip nail colors.
Less Equals Success: “In the dip powder class I teach, students almost always start by applying too much base and top coat, which can lead to uneven surfaces and make it difficult to remove later.” —Jason Rivera, educator, SNS. Think Thin: “Apply the first dip layer halfway up the nail, leaving a small margin at the sides. With the second coat, apply a little farther back and closer to the sidewalls. The third and last coat should cover the entire nail surface. This helps build a natural-looking shape, with an arch from cuticle to free edge and sidewall to sidewall. It also ensures a thin application around nail perimeters.” —Allie Baker, global brand ambassador, EzFlow.
