Lightly buff the nail surface to remove shine (use a fine-grit buffer) and clean the nails. Select the Right Tip Size - choose soft gel tips that fit each nail perfectly from sidewall to sidewall. If needed, slightly file the edges for a better fit. Apply Gel Adhesive Apply a thin layer of soft gel adhesive (gel base or builder gel) to the natural nail. Cure under an LED lamp for 30–60 seconds (depending on the product instructions). Attach the Soft Gel Tip Apply a small amount of gel adhesive to the underside of the gel tip (where it will contact the natural nail). Place the tip onto the nail at a 45-degree angle, starting at the cuticle and slowly pressing it down to avoid air bubbles. Hold the tip in place and flash cure for 10–15 seconds to secure it. Fully Cure the Nails Once all tips are applied, place the full hand under the LED lamp and cure for 60 seconds to ensure proper adhesion. Shape and Finish - Lightly buff the tip surface to prep for gel polish application. Apply your desired gel polish colour and cure between coats as needed. Finish with a top coat and cure for a glossy, long-lasting result.
