Loving Libra nails

Libra Inspired Nails Step 6

Step by Step

Salon System nail expert, Julie-Anne Larivière, has created a Libra-inspired step-by-step to celebrate Libra season, using GELLUX.

Step 1
File the nails to shape, push the cuticles back with the Salon System Gellux Cuticle Handy Manicure Tool and gently buff the surface of the nails with a white block. Thoroughly wipe nails with Gellux Nail + File Cleansing Spray and a lint free pad. When the nails are dry, apply Fast Bond and let it dry for 30 seconds. Then apply one very thin layer of the Gellux Cover Pink Base Coat and cure for 30 seconds.
Step 2
Apply one coat of Gellux in Rose Pearl and do not cure.
Step 3
Next, apply a few drops of Gellux in Unicorn and Gellux in Lilac Love and marble them together using a thin nail art brush, before curing for 30 seconds.
Step 4
Using a nail art brush dipped in Gellux in Black Onyx, create black half-moons on each nail, then cure for 60 seconds. Apply a second coat of Gellux in Black Onyx if necessary and cure again.
Step 5
With a fine liner dipped in Gellux in Purely White, create the Libra constellation on the index and little finger. Then create the Air element symbol on the middle finger and the Libra symbol on the ring finger. Cure for 30 seconds.
Step 6
Apply a thin coat of Gellux Mirror Glaze Top Coat onto all nails and do not cure. Then, take some small glitter stars and apply them to the nails. For the index and little finger, apply the stars on each point of the constellations. Apply the stars randomly on the middle and ring fingers. Cure for 60 seconds. Finally, apply the Gellux Mirror Glaze Top Coat and cure for 60 – 90 seconds. Wipe the nails with Gellux Prep + Wipe and apply Gellux Nail & Cuticle Oil.
