CND Shellac Gel Polish Denim Patch 12.5ml

CND Shellac Gel Polish Denim Patch 12.5ml is a weathered denim hue, and CND's own line for it is simple: keep your cool. CND calls Denim Patch a striking colour and predicted it would become an all-year-round favourite, which is the case for giving it a permanent slot rather than a seasonal one. It is a worn-in denim rather than a clean bright blue. CND ranges it in the Cools family, the range it describes as a curated mix of misty pastels, mineral greens, weathered denims and jewel-toned violets, the same family as Vintage Blue Jeans and Indigo Frock. Build it over two thin layers cured separately under a CND Lamp.

Benefits:

• A weathered denim hue that CND calls a striking colour, a worn-in blue rather than a clean bright one.
• Predicted by CND to be an all-year-round favourite, which is the argument for a permanent slot rather than a seasonal one.
• Ranged by CND in the Cools family, the same family as Vintage Blue Jeans and Indigo Frock.
• Delivers 14+ days of high-performance wear as the colour step in the complete CND Shellac system of base coat, colour and top coat.
• Stretches to up to 21 days of wear when it is applied over CND Shellac Epic Smoothing Base rather than the standard base coat.
• Butterfly Removal lifts the coating away in minutes, with no filing or buffing of the natural nail and no damage when used and removed as directed.

How to Use

1. Prep the natural nail: shape the free edge with a fine 240 grit file, gently push back and lift away non-living cuticle tissue, then cleanse and temporarily dehydrate the nail plate with CND ScrubFresh on a plastic-backed, lint-free pad. No filing or buffing of the nail surface is required.
2. Roll the CND Shellac Base Coat bottle between your palms to blend. Apply one thin layer to the extension edge and nail surface, then cure for 10 seconds on preset button 1 in a CND LED Lamp. Do not wipe the top film.
3. Shake the CND Shellac Color Coat vigorously to blend. Apply one thin layer to the extension edge and nail surface and cure for one minute on preset button 2S. Applied correctly, this first layer looks slightly semi-sheer.
4. Apply a second thin layer of Color Coat and cure again for one minute on preset button 2S. Keep the layers thin, as colour applied too thickly can wrinkle as it cures.
5. Roll the CND Shellac Top Coat bottle between your palms to blend. Apply one thin layer to the extension edge and nail surface and cure for one minute on preset button 3.
6. Remove the top film with a plastic-backed, lint-free pad saturated in 99% isopropyl alcohol to reveal the gloss. This step is not needed with CND Shellac No-Wipe+ Top Coat. Finish with a drop of CND SolarOil to condition the nail.
7. To remove, saturate the pad of a CND Foil Remover Wrap with CND Offly Fast Moisturizing Remover, wrap each finger and set a timer to match the top coat used. Press and massage the nail, twist the wrap away, then wipe any residue with Offly Fast. No filing of the natural nail is needed.
