Prep: File, shape, and lightly buff. Clean dust, then dehydrate the nail (cleanser/alcohol).
Base Coat: Apply a thin layer, cap the free edge, and cure (follow lamp instructions — typically 60s LED / 120s UV).
Color Coats: Apply 1–2 thin coats of Red Wine Gel Polish, capping the edge. Cure each coat (about 60s LED / 120s UV).
Top Coat: Apply a glossy top coat, cap the edge, and cure (≈ 60s LED / 120s UV).
Finish: If your top coat isn’t no-wipe, cleanse the tacky layer with gel cleanser/alcohol.
Removal (Soak-Off)
Break the seal: Lightly file the top coat to remove shine.
Soak: Place acetone-soaked cotton on the nail and wrap with foil (or use clips) for 10–15 min.
Lift gently: Use a cuticle pusher to nudge off softened gel — don’t force.
Refine & nourish: Lightly buff, cleanse, and finish with cuticle oil.
