Everything you need to nail an at-home gel manicure, Manucurist’s Green Flash Starter Kit will have your nails primed, painted and set in under 40 minutes — plus, your new set will last for up to ten days

Let’s talk Green Flash; promising exceptional shine and staying power, the gel formula is made from bio-sourced ingredients that don’t damage your nails. Not only is it easy to apply, removal is a walk in the park — just use a gentle nail polish remover. This kit features the bestselling ‘Hortencia’ shade (a sheer tutu pink) as well as the brand’s base coat, top coat, gel polish remover and an 18W UK plug LED lamp.

Prepare your nails by removing any oil from your nails, using our Green Flash gentle remover.

Step 1: wipe well the brush to remove any excess and apply the Green Flash base in a very thin layer. Cap the free edge of the nail by running the brush over the tip of the nail. This is very important to prevent the polish from lifting and this will help the colour to adhere better.

Cure under the lamp for 2 mins if you are using our 18W LED lamp. Times might be different if you are using your own lamp.

Step 2: apply the colour in 3 or 4 brush strokes only, using as little product as possible. Wipe on side of the brush and just leave a tiny drop of product on the tip of the brush. Start in the middle of the nail, then paint each side in a very thin layer and cap the free edge without adding more polish. Cure under our 18W led lamp for 2 minutes and repeat the same step one more time so you end up with 2 thin layers of colour.

Step 3: Apply the Green Flash top coat in thin layer, cap the free edge of the nail and cure under the lamp for 3 minutes. Et voila! You can expect an exceptional shine and staying power for up to 10 days!

How to remove your Green Flash? Cut out 10 pads of cotton fitting your nails, soak each pad with our gentle acetone-free nail polish remover, apply to each nail and leave them on for 2 minutes. Rub very softly and remove the cotton pads while pressing gently towards the edge of the nail.
