1. Step

Preparation of the natural nail

Before applying CND Shellac, the natural nail must be prepared accordingly. For this purpose, a simple manicure is sufficient in which the nails are placed in the desired shape and the cuticles are removed. Before applying, the nail must be degreased with CND Scrubfresh, because only on a grease-free surface can CND Shellac last for at least 14 days.

2. Step

Apply the CND Shellac base coat

The CND Shellac base coat, or base coat, is applied thinly to the degreased nail and cured for 10 seconds in the CND LED lamp. It is important that the nail tip is also coated with the base coat

Step 3:

Apply the CND Shellac colour coat

The third step is to apply the CND Shellac Color Coat. For optimal colour results, shake the bottle vigorously before use. The colour coat is also applied in a very thin layer, with proper application, this layer is still slightly transparent.

Important: The nail tip must be sealed When the CND Shellac Color Coat is applied to every 5 fingernails, it cures for one minute in the CND LED lamp. Then followed by another layer of the colour coat. This second colour application now has full coverage. Even the second layer of the colour coat hardens again for 1 minute in the CND LED lamp

4. Step

Apply the CND top coat

The CND Shellac top coat is used to finish the CND Shellac manicure. This layer is also applied very thinly again and then the nail tip is sealed. The top coat is also cured for just one minute in the CND LED lamp. This final paint with the CND Shellac top coat creates the so-called dispersion layer when curing. This film can be easily removed with a lint-free pad soaked in UV nail polish cleaner. For final care, CND SolarOil should be applied to the nail and surrounding skin tissue.

Removing shellac is easy and absolutely gentle on the natural nail. There are the practical CND Shellac Remover Wraps, and the gentle CND Offly Fast Remover.

The Shellac Remover Wraps have been specially developed to remove the Shellac paint quickly and efficiently.

Due to the integrated cotton pad, the remover can act specifically on the fingernail.

After 5 minutes exposure time, the remover wraps are removed from the finger with a slight turning motion and any residue can be easily removed with a wooden stick.

The removal time is extended when using the Top Coat Original and Top Coat Duraforce.

CND Solar Oil nail oil nourishes your nails and cuticles during and after a shellac finish. Thanks to its lightweight, natural oils and vitamin E, it protects with skin and nails. Cell damage is prevented by the jojoba oil, which carries the vitamin E deep into the skin. It also draws rice germ oil and sweet almond oil into the natural nail and through the nail polish. It strengthens your nails and they gain strength and flexibility.
