DependGel iQElemental

With its smart gel formula, Gel iQ makes creating salon-quality nails at home quick and easy. It produces super glossy nails with a plumping effect that will last for up to 14 days. The degree of coverage is clearly indicated on the bottle: solid, semi-transparent or transparent.

As a smart and gentle NO PREP product, there is no need to file your natural nails or use a strong primer. Gentle cleaning with mild Pre-Cleanser is sufficient. The UV/LED lamp has been specially developed for the system, taking just 30 seconds to cure after each step.

Polish and lamp combine to deliver a self-levelling effect, ensuring any ridges disappear during the curing process. After the top coat, clean your nails using High Shine Cleanser to produce maximum shine and intense colour. If using Gel iQ No Wipe Top Coat, simply cure the top coat for 2 x 30 seconds under the Depend UV/LED lamp. You do not need to use Cleanser. The result: polish that is immediately dry, impact-resistant and ready to go.

You can choose from two options for removal. Method 1 is a gentle removal process for the natural nail, using a special vegetable oil and warm water to remove the polish. Method 2 in combination with Removal Wraps is suited to slightly drier nails. Both methods are equally simple and effective.

Instructions

Important! If base coat, coloured polish or top coat 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. Applies to steps 2, 3 and 4 below.

To get the right amount of gel on your brush, stroke the brush against the inside of the neck of the bottle.

How to apply Gel iQ to the nails on your hands:

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: Now apply a thin coat of Gel iQ colour. Cure for 30 seconds under the UV/LED lamp.

Then apply another thin coat of Gel iQ colour and 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:

At this point the surface of your nails will be sticky; this stickiness must be removed to ensure a high shine. Therefore, it is important to clean the entire surface of the nail with Gel iQ High Shine Cleanser. Gently wipe the surface of the nail with the pad when removing the sticky surface. Keep at least 12 pads handy.

What to do 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 cotton wool pad for each nail and repeat the same process for all your nails.
5.Once all your nails have been cleaned in this way, clean them once more with High Shine 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 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, the long-wearing, high-shine polish will last for about two weeks.
