Let's look at first at the SEMILAC BASE & TOP COAT COLLECTION for Soak Off Gel Manicure.

 We recommend selecting the gel base, depending on your needs:

  • for maximum durability recommend classical base Semilac Base.
  • for increased protection of the natural nail recommend base vitamin Semilac Vitamin Base.
  • for convenient application and savings recommend Base / Top 2 in 1 Semilac Base Top.

Classic Semilac Base: makes the color stay on nails up to 21 days.

 

Semilac Vitamin Base - is enriched with vitamins E and B5, so that doubles the protection of the natural nail. With vitamins, it is delicate in dealing with the natural nail plate, while we ask to take into account its slightly less durability compared to our conventional base. Vitamin base makes the color stay for around 14 days.

 

Semilac Leveller Base - is a self-leveling base for soak off gel / hybrid colors. Thanks to the very dense consistency this base is very easy in the application witch certainly will meet the approval of people starting their nail styling adventure.

Leveller Base id different from the other bases because Leveller Base can fill the nail plate unevenness and self-leveling properties. In addition, it's dense and flexible, witch makes it easy to use. A product with such properties requires a special composition witch results in the highest quality of the styling criteria being fulfilled by its use up to 14 days.

No primer is required before application of this base.

This base is dedicated to problematic nail plate with uneven structure, witch provides better adhesion of the soak off gel / hybrid products.

STEP BY STEP HOW TO APPLY LEVELLER BASE:

  1. prepare nail plate and degrease it with nail cleaner or alcohol.
  2. Apply one layer of Leveller Base. Its thickness depends on the effect that we want to achieve - in order to build up the nail you should apply more layers and each cure under the lamp. When using Leveller Base in the form of a regular soak off gel /hybrid manicure, simply apply a thin layer of the product and cure it under the lamp (curing time depends on the power of the lamp).
  3. Apply thin layer of color and cure it in the lamp.
  4. Apply one more layer of color and cure (remember to secure the free edge of the nail with color).
  5. Apply Semilac Top of your choice and cure it.
  6. Finish your manicure with Semilac Cuticle Oil.
