CND Shellac Gel Polish Statement Earrings 12.5ml

CND Shellac Gel Polish Statement Earrings 12.5ml is the glitter in the CND Party Ready collection, a holiday range of effortless but glam shades. Statement Earrings is a glittery mauve: sparkle suspended through a soft dusty-purple base. Two thin layers give the density most clients want, and because cured Shellac shades can be layered, it also works as a sparkle pass over a deeper cured colour when a party nail needs more punch.

Benefits

• Glitter is suspended in the mauve base rather than sold as a separate topper, so the shade covers and sparkles in the same two layers.
• Layer this shade over another cured Shellac shade to build a custom sparkle without buying a dedicated glitter coat.
• Cures in one minute per layer under a CND Lamp on preset 2S, so the manicure leaves the chair instantly dry with no smudging and no dent risk.
• Delivers 14+ days of high-performance wear as the colour step in the complete CND Shellac system of base coat, colour and top 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.
• Yields roughly 34 manicure services per professional bottle, which is where the maths works on a seasonal shade.

How to Use

Shake Statement Earrings vigorously before use so the glitter is evenly dispersed through the base, then apply in two thin layers as below.

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.
