HOW TO USE:

- Gently Etch the nail plate with our Ugly Duckling Medium Zebra File. If you prefer using our e-file, a Medium Arbor Sanding Band works great!
- Remove all dust - dust is the enemy! Do not use a cleanser, as most cleansers contain oil. Do not use acetone or alcohol either as these products can smooth the surface of the nail plate too much.
- Apply Ugly Duckling Prep to all 10 nails.
- Apply Ugly Duckling Primer to all 10 nails.
- Apply 1 thin coat of Build-A-Base in Clear to the nail plate and fully cure in your Ugly Duckling LED Gel Lamp for 60 seconds.
- Continue to apply additional coats for added strength, or build structure on the nail with your desired Build-A-Base color of choice, or use as a base to sculpt your Acrygel or Sculpting Gel enhancements over. Fully cure in your Ugly Duckling LED Gel Lamp for 60 seconds.
- If application is not as smooth as you would like, finish file with an Ugly Duckling Medium grit Premium Zebra File or if you prefer an e-file, a Medium grit Arbor Sanding Band works great! Finish with your favorite Ugly Duckling Gel Polish or Color Gel.
