Application.
How to apply plantPRO.
We recommend applying the product to one hand at a time, starting by pushing back your cuticles and gently removing any excess cuticles.
Step 1: Prepare nails carefully.
Matt the top layer as well as the tips and edges of your nails with the Prep (240) side of the PRObuffer. Then clean the nails thoroughly with a cellulose pad moistened with the Prep & Finish Cleaner.
Step 2: Apply base coat.
Work in a thin layer of base coat using sliding movements - starting at the tip of the nail. Smooth the base coat and cure it under the PROlamp for 60 seconds. Ensure that the light covers the entire surface of each nail.
Step 3: Apply colour.
Apply an even, thin layer of colour and make sure to seal the tip of the nail. Cure the colour for 60 seconds under the PROlamp. Repeat this step with a second coat for more coverage, volume and optimum lastingness.
Step 4: Apply top coat.
Then apply an even layer of top coat, again making sure to seal the tips of the nails well. Leave this layer to harden under the PROlamp for 90 seconds.
Step 5: Finish.
Clean your nails with a cellulose pad moistened with Prep & Finish Cleaner to remove the sticky layer*. We recommend waiting about one minute after the top coat has cured before performing this step.
*The sticky layer forms during the curing of gel nail polish and is essential for the adhesion of the different layers. It should only be removed once application is complete. Even when the polish is fully cured, it may still feel tacky due to this layer.
Please note.
Preparing the nails, applying a thin layer of base coat, and sealing the nail tips at every step are essential for durability and easy removal.
The durability of plantPRO not only depends on precisely following the instructions but also on the health and condition of your nails. Just like your skin, your nails are unique. For the best long-lasting results, carefully seal the tips of the nails.
Depending on your speed and experience level, application can take 20-45 minutes.
plantPRO was developed as a system – for optimal results, we recommend using all associated products together.
Removal.
How to remove plantPRO.
We recommend removing your plantPRO nail polish first on one hand and then on the other. Ideally, carry out steps 1-3 once for all fingers on one hand and proceed finger by finger for steps 4 & 5. Removal may be a little difficult the first time - with more experience you will quickly develop a feel for it.
Step 1: File off polish.
File off at minimum the top layer of the nail polish with the "Remove" side (100) of the PRObuffer so that the entire nail, including the edges, is matt. The more you file off, the faster the soaking and removal will be. Take care to avoid damaging your nail plate.
Step 2: Apply nail oil.
Apply a nail oil, such as gitti's Nourishing Nail Oil, to your cuticles to protect them during the removal process. You can also apply and massage it in several times a week for nourishment.
Step 3: Leave Remover to soak.
Apply a generous amount of Soak-off Remover to a cellulose pad cut in half and place one on each nail, then secure with the PROclips. Leave the remover on for around 10 minutes.
Step 4: Remove.
Remove the PROclip and pad from the nail that was soaked first. Carefully push off any residue with a rosewood stick. Do not scratch the nail. If the nail polish still sticks, file again and repeat step 3 for 5-10 minutes.
Step 5: Finish and complete.
Using the Prep side (240) of the PRObuffer, remove any small residue especially at the tips of the nails. Then treat your nails with our nail and hand care products.
