Molding with liquid stone

For molding nail design with the presence of liquid stone, the order of registration will be different:

1. Apply the basic background of the gel. Dry a couple of minutes.
2. Determine the location of the stone and the black gel. Draw a substrate repeating the desired stone shape.
3. Print the desired color foil. For the substrate, a silver brilliant surface is usually used, since its reflection does not change the shade of a liquid stone.
4. Circle a black gel substrate for edging effect.
5. Also draw it an extra drawing in the desired area of \u200b\u200bthe nail plate.
6. Take the golden foil and diligently print it in places of edging and the rest of the pattern.
7. Save the drawing in the lamp for about three minutes.
8. To create a material for a liquid stone, prepare a small container.
9. Pour in shape first a colorless gel and add a few drops of color to it. You can use nail paint. Do not overdo it, as the stone is essentially transparent, and excessive saturation color will reduce the main effect.
10. Carefully stirre the consistency and give a little thickening, periodically stirring.
11. Neat movements apply the first dense layer on the substrate, closing it completely, but without going beyond the edge. Then the second layer above, create a stone rounded convex shape. The structure of the gel must be very thick, so that the stone is frowning, like from plasticine. Dry nails.
12. Cover the nail sculptural gel. He visually adds the effect of bulging and secure all the elements of the picture.
13. Complete the manicure to apply the finish and make a drying under ultraviolet.
