DUEL SYSTEM FREEFORM POPITS - a full set of nails in 35mins This new system is not meant to replace your current way of doing things but gives you a wider product offering whilst allowing you to compete with NNS. This system enables you do any nail biter no matter how badly bitten their nails. Would you like to fit in more clients in a day and make more money then read on.... Take your skills to a new level.
Here are the instructions for the use of DUEL SYSTEM FREEFORM Popits which may be used again and again!
1. Prepare the natural nails using the same procedure you would always follow for your brand of product.
2. You may apply tips at this stage but it is optional.
3. Sanitise the natural nails and allow to dry.
4. If you brand requires it - apply primer to the natural nail only and let dry.
5. Choose the 10 DUEL SYSTEM FREEFORM Popits that fit each individual nail exactly from side wall to side wall and then lay then out. (Make sure the Popits are not to big).
6. Fill the DUEL SYSTEM FREEFORM Popits just short of the length of DUEL SYSTEM FREEFORM Popits with one colour acrylic. The mix ratio should be little wetter than you would normally use allowing you to work quicker. For best results use one bead only. Press the product into place. make sure you take the product all the way up the side walls however do not over fill popits
7. Place the DUEL SYSTEM FREEFORM Popits at the Eponychium as tightly as you can while holding at a 45 degree angle to the nail. For best results slide the Popits under the Eponychium very gently.
8. Slowly lower the DUEL SYSTEM FREEFORM Popits on the prepared nail and hold with gentle and even pressure with the thumb over the nail bed for 15-30 sec. How long would depend on the temperature and mix ratio. Set up times can also vary from product to product. It's best to use one medium to fast setting enabling you to complete a full set even faster.
9. Turn the hand over and remove any excess product that has oozed out from the side walls or free edge. With a little practice you will know how much product to use.
10. When sculpting a set miss out step 2 and ensure the product is not to thin at the free edge.
11. Now repeat the above steps on the other fingers.
12. When all DUEL SYSTEM FREEFORM Popits have been applied go back to the first one and gently pinch the DUEL SYSTEM FREEFORM Popits off each nail. (You may hear a click sound when removing the Popits and this is perfectly normal. File or trim to the desired length and shape, leaving a completely buff free - smooth surface ready for polish. (Use a gentle abrasive to smooth all the edges if necessary)
If you are not sure if your product is set or not use your brush handle to check - if you don't know how to do this please email me back for help.
These moulds can be used for Pink and White Sculpting and Nail Art. When doing Pink and Whites mark on the top of the Popits where you would like to put the smile line. Apply the White to the DUEL SYSTEM FREEFORM Popits and repeat this procedure on two or three nails before going back to apply your pink or clear which should overlap the white to ensure proper adhesion at the free edge and nail bed. Apply to the natural nail.
Any coloured acrylics or glitters may be used however I would do just a natural set to start with 2 or 3 times. That tedious task of doing your own nails just became a breeze....
