A delightful mix of pressed and dried flowers, perfect for encapsulating or creating "milk bath" style nail art looks.
Please note these are real flowers so each jar is unique- colors, texture and flower clusters will vary.
Do not use on or around eyes, discontinue use if irritation occurs.
To get you on the road to flower power nail art success: here are some specific tips for applying dried flowers.
Application tips for dried flowers with gel:
- Apply a precise dot of clear gel so the flower has an anchor to adhere to.
- Gently place the shaped flower (cut to fit if necessary) and use a handheld lamp to flash cure it into place.
- If the flower is too large and unable to lay flat, gently press it into place with a clear piece of plastic, holding it in place and flash cure through the clear plastic to ensure it’s as flat as possible to the nail. Here's a video example.
- Fully cure once all flowers are placed.
- Encapsulate with a layer of builder gel and finish file if necessary. Use your finger to feel for any protruding corners or bits.
- Remove all dust and debris and add top gel, cure.
Application tips for dried flowers with traditional polish:
- After applying your base coat and color, let it dry completely.
- Before you apply your flower(s) test your placement and trim to fit as flat as possible.
- Apply a dot of clear polish or nail glue (you’ll have to work fast with nail glue)
- Place your flower(s) and let the polish or glue dry completely.
- Apply a thick topcoat to seal in the flower(s), if it’s not laying completely flat, you’ll have scratchy bits.
- Please note, dried flowers will still have raised texture under traditional polish.
