How to Use Rio Quick Dip Acrylics:
Before you begin, read the user guide and watch the DVD for tips and techniques. Allow plenty of time to do your nails. As a novice it may take up to two hours to do a full set of nails. Once practised you should be able to do everything in as little as 40 minutes. Your treatment area should be a flat surface covered with a towel or disposable covering.
Select a tip for each nail that fits neatly against the free edge of your natural nail. Cut the base of each tip so the stop point covers a maximum of one third of your natural nail then pre-blend the edge so that the well area is thin and tapers to the end.
Preparing your nails is the most important part--if the nails are not correctly prepared the extensions will start to lift. Remove any jewellery, wash your hands and dry thoroughly. Gently push back the cuticles with the hoof stick and wipe all residual skin cells from the nail surface. Then lightly buff over the nail surface with the sanding block to remove the shine and brush away dust particles.
Apply a thin line of nail glue onto the well area of the tip, hold it at an angle as you tilt and slide the nail tip snugly onto the nail. Hold the tip in position for about five seconds. Apply all five tips to one hand then cut and file to the required length before doing the other hand.
Apply two layers of resin over the entire nail and extension tip and dip them into the powder ensuring a thorough and even coating. Remove excess powder, apply another layer of resin over the nail and spray activator over the treated nails covering the surface and sides. Finally, for a longer lasting finish, seal the acrylic nails with UV gel and apply 2-in-1 varnish to seal the nails and give a glossy finish.
