Abstract autumn nails
Autumn/Winter, Step by Step
Salon System nail expert, Julie-Anne, has created an autumnal nail design using the new Without Limits collection from GELLUX in collaboration with Karen Louise.
Step 1
Prepare nails by pushing back cuticles, trimming excess, shaping the free edge, and buffing the nail plate with a white block. Scrub clean with GELLUX Prep + Wipe. Apply GELLUX Fast Bond, let it dry for 30 seconds then apply base coat of choice and cure for 30 seconds.
Step 2
Apply two layers of GELLUX We Rise by Lifting Others, curing for 30 seconds in between each coat.
Step 3
Dip a fine liner into GELLUX For-Evergreen and swipe your brush from the base of the nails in a downward motion. This creates the stem. Cure for 60 seconds.
Step 4
To create the leaves, start by dipping a medium dotting tool into GELLUX For-Evergreen and dot around the stem. Do not cure.
Step 5
Using a fine liner extend the tip of the dots into a leaf shape and connect the leaf to the stem using into GELLUX For-Evergreen, cure again.
Step 6
Repeat the same process this time using GELLUX Kallie-Blue. Cure for 30 seconds.
Step 7
Now dip a detail brush into GELLUX Love U and paint a leopard pattern in random areas, cure again.
Step 8
Finally, apply GELLUX Mirror Glaze Top Coat and cure again. Wipe nails with GELLUX Prep + Wipe and GELLUX Nail & Cuticle Oil to finish your Autumnal inspired nails.
