Introducing the step 2 base coat of GEL IQ by BETER. To achieve a semi-permanent manicure, you will require a UV/LED lamp along with all items found in the Gel iQ starter kit. This product isn't just for fingernails; you can also use it on your toenails by following the identical procedure. Be sure to review the usage guidelines and safety details that come with the packaging before beginning your application. Key benefits of Gel IQ include: - Free from HEMA and Di-HEMA: The enhanced formulation uses more soothing ingredients aimed at reducing potential allergies and skin irritations, making it safe for both skin and nails. - No need for pre-buffing: Unlike other products, Gel iQ does not require you to buff your natural nail surface or apply a primer, both of which can compromise nail health. Just a gentle cleanse of the nail with the pre-cleanser is sufficient before applying the base coat. The specially designed UV/LED lamp ensures that each layer dries in just 30 seconds. This lamp-polish collaboration guarantees a flawless nail finish, smoothing out any imperfections during the drying process, even if the polish was not flawlessly applied. The UV/LED device comes with an adapter as well. - Exceptional shine and longevity: The final touch with the High Shine Cleanser delivers a brilliant shine and color that lasts. Once the polish has fully dried, it can be touched without the fear of smudging as it sets quickly. Gel iQ can maintain its integrity for up to 14 days and is resistant to chips. - Simple and gentle removal: This polish is easy to take off with a specialized vegetable oil and a soak in warm water. In cases of particularly dry nails, Gel iQ Remover might be required for effective removal.
