NOTE
- Close the lid after decanting the desired amount of Calgel Plus art glitter. Clean the rim of the jar before closing.
- Your mixing amount should be 1:1 as this will allow the gel to self-level and adjust the thickness for a pliable & effortless application.
- You will finish your design with any of the Calgel Top Gel options (Non-wipe Top Gel, Top Gel or Matte Top gel)
- You can also use Calgel natural clear gel (CG0s, CG0, CG00)
It is not recommended that you top with a nail varnish top coat like the High gloss top coat, as the rough surface would remain.
- When you want a streaky or “glad wrap nail art look” look you will use the gel without mixing it with anything to maintain the original texture.
