Glitter - Light Elegance
Description and Recommended Uses:
The Glitter product is an attractive yet subtle addition to the services you can offer you clients. It is a product that any one of your clients can wear either to a football game or to an elegant party! Just apply the Glitter over the nail and cure. Wipe-off the sticky residue and the nails are done. The shine and sparkle appearance is attractive and beautiful.
Recommended uses:
· Party nails
· Going out on the town
· Everyday use with a flair

Application:
Cleanse, file and prep the natural nail and existing product, making sure to remove all of the shine. Cleanse the nail again. Apply a small amount of Glitter over the existing product as if you are applying polish. Make sure that the Glitter has the desired appearance. When satisfied with the way the nails look, place hand in the light and cure. When curing process is complete, cleanse the nails to remove the remaining sticky residue. There may be a slight texture to the surface of the nail. Remove this texture by buffing, then applying Finisher, 1-Step or Reconstructor and curing again (in some cases, this texture will go away on it's own). The nails should look glossy and beautiful, and the nail is complete. 

Hints & Trouble Shooting:
Glitter will lift from the free-edge if the nail is not roughed-up properly. Use a 100 to 180 grit file to prepare the nail sufficiently for the Glitter. Not removing the pterigyum from the nail plate, not sufficiently removing the shine from the nail plate, or touching the cuticle or sidewall with the product causes lifting of the Glitter near the cuticle. Apply the Glitter thinly on the nail for a less drastic appearance, or apply it thicker for a more noticeable appearance.

Storage:
Avoid exposure to all UV light sources (including but not limited to sunlight, UV light from curing lamps and "full spectrum lamps" such as Ott lights), inert gases and flame.
