Beachy Keen
Spring/Summer, Step by Step
Nail Harmony’s Bryan Vu, the brand’s doctorate professor educator, reveals how to create this beach themed design using the Gelish Make A Splash collection.
“The beach is not only known as a place to relax, but as a place of beauty,” he comments. “Not only above, but under the water also. The ocean is filled with many colourful and astonishing marine life.”
Key shades:
Feeling Swim-sical
One Piece or Two?
Cellophane Coat

Step 1
After completing Gelish nail prep, apply a thin coat of FEELING SWIM-SICAL to half of the nail towards the free edge, ONE PIECE OR TWO? to the other half of the nail near the cuticle and blend the two shades where they intersect. Cure for 30 seconds in the 18G LED Light. Repeat for full coverage.
Step 2
With SHEEK WHITE, apply a thin coat to the entire nail. Do Not Cure.
Step 3
Using the larger end of the DOTTING TOOL and CELLOPHANE COAT, quickly add dots to the entire nail. Cure for 30 seconds.
Step 4
Using BRONZED and the MINI STRIPER BRUSH, create two star shapes near the cuticle. Cure for 30 seconds. Apply TOP IT OFF to the entire nail making sure to cap the free edge. Cure for 30 seconds.
With NAIL SURFACE CLEANSE and WIPE IT OFF lint-free wipes, cleanse the inhibition layer of the nail. Finish your look by massaging NOURISH Cuticle Oil into the skin surrounding the nail plate.
