You Are Cute Juicy Gel №12, 15ml

You Are Cute Juicy Gel is a light-curing polymer material which, thanks to its strength, allows for significant nail extension. It contains photoinitiators that trigger the polymerisation process when exposed to ultraviolet light of a specific wavelength.

Features:
- Acid-free.
- Has shock-absorbing properties; does not crack on impact.
- Has a medium consistency.
- Has medium pigmentation; covers the free edge.
- Suitable for the ‘no-file extension’ technique.
- Suitable for extensions ‘on top forms’. Does not cause a burning sensation in the lamp.
- Thickens in the cold and thins in the heat.
- Thixotropic — becomes thinner if the brush is moved whilst working.
- It can be heated further to make the gel thinner.
- Hard at a thickness of 1 mm. If the thickness is less than 1 mm, it may bend slightly, but this does not affect wear.
- Does not shrink and holds the curve well.
- Must be used with a Rubber Base.
- Polymerisation wavelength 365–405 nm.
- UV/LED lamp power 36–48 W.
- Permissible coating thickness 0.5 mm at the tip / 1 mm at the apex.
- Full curing time: 120 seconds.

Application method: 

REINFORCEMENT
1. Removal.
2. Do not file the nail shape, or leave 2 mm in length, which will be removed after levelling.
3. Using a 220-grit file, file the top of the nail without applying too much pressure, lifting the cuticles, or use a 100-grit buff.
4. Perform a manicure.
5. If using removers, wash your hands with soap after use.
6. Degrease the nail using Nail Prep. Apply two coats. Use 4 wipes for this (1 wipe for 5 fingers). First coat: wipe the surface of the nail. Second coat: take an orange stick, place a wipe on it and wipe the entire cuticle area and the ridges.
7. Use a primer if desired, but if the base coat has sufficient acidity, it is not necessary.
8. The Rubber Base is best applied with a flat gel brush. The base coat should be applied in an even layer. Fill in all the nail grooves and cure under the lamp for 60 seconds.
9. We recommend not removing the tacky layer from the base, as it helps the gel chemically bond with the subsequent layers (gel, colour, base). Removing the tacky layer weakens the chemical adhesion and increases the risk of lifting.
10. Smooth the surface. If smoothing with gel, leave a 0.5–1 mm gap from the cuticle. Cure under the lamp for 60 seconds.
11. File the shape after smoothing. This is necessary to create thickness at the edge of the nail, which will hold the free edge in place.
12. If the nail was thin, it may curl, so be sure to file off 1 mm of the natural nail from the inside. This will prevent the material from lifting. If the material is hard and the nail is very soft, the nail itself will start to separate from the hard material at the free edge.
13. Once filed, remove the tackiness and apply gel polish.
14. Apply a top coat. Cure for 120 seconds. Do not wipe with anything after curing, as this may cause the shine to fade.

CLASSIC EXTENSIONS
1. Removal
2. Shorten the nail to 1 mm and shape it into a rounded shape.
3. Using a 220-grit file, file the top of the nail without applying too much pressure, lifting the cuticles, or use a 100-grit buff.
4. Perform a manicure.
5. If using nail polish removers, wash your hands with soap after use.
6. Degrease the nail using Nail Prep. Apply two coats. Use 4 wipes for this (1 wipe for every 5 fingers). First coat: wipe the surface of the nail. Second pass: take an orange stick, place a wipe on it and wipe the entire cuticle area and the nail grooves.
7. Apply the primer.
8. The Rubber Base is best applied with a flat gel brush. The base should be applied in an even layer. Fill in all the nail grooves and cure under the lamp for 60 seconds.
9. We recommend not removing the tacky layer from the base, as it helps it chemically bond with subsequent layers of the coating (gel, colour, base). Removing the tacky layer weakens the chemical adhesion and creates a risk of lifting.
10. Position the form for extending the free edge of the nail.
11. Apply a layer of clear gel to shape the artificial nail. Cure for 30 seconds.
12. File the free edge and shape the nail as desired.
13. Wipe away the tacky layer and any excess dust.
14. Apply another coat of Rubber Base to the areas where the file was used. Cure for 30 seconds.
15. Smooth with gel, place under the lamp and press down at 10–15 seconds. If the gel is very sticky or contains glitter, press down at 20 seconds.
16. Cure in the lamp for 120 seconds.
17. Wipe off the tacky film before applying the gel polish.
18. Apply a top coat. Cure for 120 seconds. Do not wipe with anything after curing, as this may cause the shine to fade.
