How to apply - Understanding our powder types and application methods

Modified on Tue, 15 Apr at 1:50 PM

We offer lot of types of powders in our range. Each one delivers stunning results—but it’s important to follow the correct application method for the specific type of powder you're using.

Know Your Powder Type; 

  • Holographic Powders: For a multi-dimensional, light-reflective finish

  • Metallic Powders: For a sleek, mirror-like effect

  • Classic Powders: For bold, solid colors with a timeless look

Each type requires a slightly different approach, so be sure to follow the instructions specific to your chosen powder.


Application Tips for All Powders

  • Apply fine coats: Less is more! Thin layers of each product will give you the smoothest finish.

  • Need a smoother flow? You can stand your bottles of base and top coat in a container of semi-hot water for a few minutes before applying. This helps thin the product slightly for easier application.

  • Powder application should also be light — avoid heavy or clumpy layers.


Specific Instructions for Each Powder Type

Classic Powder

  • Apply your Base Coat and cure it under the LED lamp for 2 minutes.

  • After curing, the Base Coat should still feel slightly tacky — that’s normal and necessary.

  • Now, apply your powder gently over the slightly sticky surface.

Holographic & Metallic Powders

  • Apply your Base Coat, then immediately follow with a thin layer of Top Coatdo not cure between these two layers.

  • Once both layers are on, cure together under the LED lamp for 2 minutes.

  • After curing, the surface should be completely dry and smooth — now it’s ready for you to rub in your powder to achieve that signature Holo or Metallic shine.


Follow the Guide for Best Results

These methods are all outlined in your included instructions, and we highly recommend giving them a careful read. Following the right steps will help you achieve that flawless, professional-looking finish every time.
