Pretty color
Incredibly beautiful color. I thought you would get a brush to polish the chrome with, but you don't. Also, the color doesn't hold well at all, and I usually don't have any problems with regular gel iq, the color chipped off after just a few hours.Translated from swedish

INSTRUCTIONS
Important: if UV-curing product comes into contact with the skin around your nail, this must be removed prior to curing using Gel iQ Pre-Cleanser applied to a cotton bud.
Instructions for application of Chrome effect as part of the Gel iQ system
1. Cleaning: Apply Gel iQ Pre-Cleanser to a cotton wool pad and thoroughly clean your nails. Allow your nails to dry completely for 30 seconds. Do not touch the nail surface after it has been cleaned.
2. ¤ Base Coat: Apply a thin coat of Gel iQ Base Coat. Cure for 30 seconds under the UV/LED lamp.
3. ¤ Colour: Apply a thin, even coat of any Depend Gel iQ colour. Cure for 30 seconds under the UV/LED lamp.
4. ¤ Top Coat: Apply a thin coat of Gel iQ Top Coat and cure for 30 seconds under the UV/LED lamp.
5. Cleaning/Top Finishing: see point 8.
6. Chrome: NB: You can only do one finger at a time. Apply a generous coat of Chrome and allow to air-dry for around 8-10 seconds. Then buff gently using Chrome Sponges until the Chrome effect is visible. Repeat step 6 in full until you achieve the desired effect.
7. ¤ Top Coat: Apply a thin coat of Gel iQ Top Coat and cure for 30 seconds under the UV/LED lamp.
8. Cleaning/Top Finishing: The sticky surface that forms on the nail after curing your Top Coat must be removed to achieve optimum shine. Therefore it is important to clean the entire surface of the nail using Gel iQ High Shine Cleanser. Wipe down the surface in one firm motion to remove the sticky surface. You will need at least 12 cotton wool pads to hand.
Method for each nail:
1. Apply plenty of Gel iQ High Shine Cleanser to a cotton wool pad.
2. Place the saturated surface of the pad over the entire nail and wait 5 seconds.
3. With 2 fingers on the pad, press down to ensure even pressure across the surface of the nail. Now wipe from the cuticle to the tip of your nail in one firm motion.
4. Use a fresh, clean pad for each nail and repeat the same process for all your nails.
5. Once all your nails have been cleaned in this way, you can clean them once more with the cleanser. This will bring out the gel’s fantastic colour and shine. Soak the pad with cleanser and clean from cuticle to tip. First wipe down the centre of the nail and then do the left and right sides. Use a fresh, clean pad for each hand.
6. Important: complete the treatment by washing your hands thoroughly with soap and water.
Once you have completed all these steps, your hard-wearing, high-shine polish will last for about two weeks.
TIP: For even longer-lasting results, apply a thin coat of Gel iQ Base Coat to your Chrome nails once the surface is completely dry. Cure for 30 seconds under the UV/LED lamp. Finish with a thin coat of Gel iQ Top Coat and cure for 30 seconds under the UV/LED lamp. Repeat the cleaning process from point 5.
Do not use this product if:
• You have previously experienced an allergic reaction after using UV/LED-cured nail products.
• You are allergic to acrylates, as these products may cause an allergic reaction.
• Your cuticles are split or damaged, etc. or if your nails are in poor condition (thin, dry or split).
• You bite your nails or have short nails, where the tip of your nail (the top) ends below the skin of your fingertips.
The product is not intended for use by persons under 16 years old. Keep out of the reach of children.
The product is not intended for application more than once every 14 days.
Avoid contact with the skin. Take care to ensure the product is only applied to the surface of the nail and not the surrounding skin or cuticle. If you end up with any on the skin or cuticle, use a cotton wool pad moistened with Gel iQ Pre-Cleanser to gently remove it. Once curing is complete, wash the skin well with soap and water to remove any residue.
Avoid contact with the eyes. If you get any of the product in your eyes, rinse gently with water for several minutes, remove contact lenses (if applicable) and continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists, seek medical advice/care.
Curing with the UV/LED lamp: The Gel iQ lamp is preprogrammed for 30 seconds when you press the button once. For a curing time of 60 seconds, press the 30-second button twice. It is essential to always adhere to the times stated in the instructions. A shorter curing time will result in under-cured material and consequently an increased risk of allergy and a less durable finish.
Allergy information: Contains ingredients that may cause an allergic reaction in sensitive individuals. Stop using the product if you experience any redness or itching. If you experience any smarting pain, itching or swelling during the treatment, remove uncured material using a cotton wool pad moistened with Gel iQ Pre-Cleanser, and then wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water. If the problems persist, contact a doctor for advice. If any skin irritation or rash occurs after treatment, seek medical advice/care.
When applying products, always leave a decent safety margin around the cuticles.
