How to apply nail powder?

The nail application process is very simple, but just like any procedure, this one needs the right tools. The necessary tool that will collect the powder and spread it over the surface of the nail is the Semilac SemiStick Sponge.

Before starting the application, you must decide which powder you want to apply to your nails. This is extremely important because each type of powder has a different application purpose. Some of them, e.g., the galaxy effect powder, which you can read about, are universal and can be applied both on the dispersion layer and on the top no wipe layer, or on the black colour 031 Semilac Black Diamond, which does not have this layer. Thus, a different result can be obtained.

At Semilac, we also have nail powders, which are applied only to the dispersion coating or only to the no-wipe hardened nails. You don't know what the said dispersion layer is? It is nothing more than a sticky layer that forms after the polish is cured in the lamp.

Prepare your nails for a standard gel polish manicure. Then apply the base, then the selected colour of gel polish. Make sure that the selected powder can be applied to the polish, or you need to finish the styling with a Top No Wipe. Then start the application. Using the applicator, apply the powder to the nail and use circular movements to spread it over the surface. The powder should be carefully rubbed into the surface. The SemiStick sponge will help you in this task, with which you will perfectly cover your nails with powder.
