Application features
A manicure will last a long time if you learn how to apply it correctly. There is nothing difficult here - once you learn and turn it into a habit, you will already be performing these actions on the machine.
The first thing to do is to clean the nails from the natural shine. Then the varnish will fall better and the coating will be more durable.Only you should not use an abrasive file for cleaning, otherwise it may damage the surface. Then you should use a degreaser and process their nails.
The primer will be needed if you want to preserve your manicure for a long time, as it allows the varnish to more closely “engage” with the surface of the nail. It is better to choose a primer without acid in the composition - it will not harm the nail and protect it.
After all these manipulations, it is worth applying the base, having dried it under the lamp for two minutes - no more. And in the end you can apply gel varnishes E.Mi. They are bright enough, so one layer is enough for a start.
