Clearly Pink, as the name suggests, is actually closer to a clear polish with an addition of a pink tint. It is really sheer. It would be barely noticeable on the nails. So layers are the best. Choose this color if you want your nails to appear as natural as possible. For example, when you have dress code restrictions or prefer to do a more subtle French manicure.
Grapefruit sparkle looks beautiful even when applied in one layer for a French manicure, and in layers when you are only wearing this color. One of the latest trends in nail design is doing CND Shellac and Vinylux French manicure with a colored smile line instead of a white one.
Looks so delicate! Very beautiful for spring or for a year-round pastel manicure. Another lovely spring pastel color. But be careful when applying black to your French manicure tips because it may look like you have dirt under the nails. Shellac requires a multi-step process to apply it to your nails and to ensure it looks great and stays on the nails for at least 14 days, as CND promises. No need to remove the top layer of the natural nail for better bonding, like you may have to do with some other gel nail polishes.
Before you apply the Shellac base coat you need to remove any excess cuticle and hangnails and purify the nail plate by using CND ScrubFresh with a lint-free wipe. Then you need to apply a thin layer of the base coat, and cure it in the CND UV lamp, as the manufacturer suggests.
After that apply 2 layers of the color Shellac polish, curing each layer in the lamp, before applying the next one. Begin the application of each layer by swiping the brush against the tip of the extension edge of the nail to seal it. After you have applied the base coat layer and held it under the lamp, apply two layers of the pink French manicure base color. Actually, some people even prefer applying only one layer of a pinky nude polish to make their nails look as natural as possible.
Paint the white tip, also known as the smile line, with a couple of swipes along the edge of the nail from side to center of Shellac Cream Puff or Shellac Studio White.
You can see how to paint a white French manicure smile line in more detail in the video embedded above. You can also draw the smile line with a nail art stylus AKA the dotting pen tool dipped in white Shellac nail polish.
Cure each layer of the base color, the smile line and the top coat in the lamp after you apply them. If you want to make a colored smile line instead of the white one use any bright or pastel-colored Shellac instead of Cream Puff or Studio White on the tip of the nail. You also need to apply the base coat, add two layers of the base color, such as light pink Shellac color, paint a smile line with Shellac Cream Puff or Studio White and apply the top coat, curing each layer as you go.
However, you are more dependent on correcting the smile line with a gel brush dipped in Isopropyl Alcohol. And you also need to make sure no polish is left on your skin, especially when you seal the edge and paint the white tips. Wipe off the excess polish from your skin before you cure it with a lamp. If necessary, gently slide off any remaining product with an orangewood stick in the direction of nail plate growth. Be careful not to scrape away the surface layers of the natural nail plate.
P - Perform a manicure. Wash your hands with soap and water and towel dry. If necessary, trim the length from each nail, using nail clippers. Gently slide a cuticle pusher along the nail plate to lift cuticle. Clean with soap and water, rinse and towel dry. Step 2: Shellac Base Coat Application 1. Shake to blend. Shake vigorously to blend. Carefully detail with the 7. Step 4: Shellac Top Coat Application 1. Fold the cotton pad over the top of the nail.
Squeeze the top center of the foil together to secure. Securely grip each finger and apply slight pressure to the fingernail.
