Question 2

What are your pro tips for a perfect glossy finish?

Accepted Answer

Apply Earthy Nail Polish and Gel Lock in thin coats, this way you are able to get a clean and even finish every time.

Allow each coat of nail polish to fully air dry.

Cap the free edge of your nail by running the brush along the edge of your nail to help wrap the Gel Lock at the edge of your nail and prevent chipping.

Make sure to remove any Gel Lock you accidentally get on your skin before curing in the Earthy LED lamp.

Apply a small amount of Earthy Cleanser to the Earthy Lint Free Wipe then cleanse the nail, do not apply Cleanser directly to nail.

Use Earthy Gel Remover to easily remove Gel Lock.

Question 3

What should I do if the polish is not curing properly?

Accepted Answer

This is often the result of incorrect positioning of the fingers inside the lamp.  Do not bend the fingers upward or downward.  Make sure they are lying completely flat.  This is why we recommend doing four fingers and then thumbs on their own.

Question 4

What should I do if the polish is gathering/shrinking?

Accepted Answer

Make sure that you are covering the entire nail as thoroughly as possible.  This means capping the free edge and applying your polish as near as possible to the cuticle as well as the sidewalls.

Question 5

What should I do if the polish is tacky?

Accepted Answer

If the nails are sticky or tacky after curing, they may not be completely cured and will require further time under the light.

Question 6

How can I quickly remove gel nail polish?

Accepted Answer

You do not need to be overly aggressive with removal.  When you are ready to remove your gel polish, take your time by applying Earthy Gel Remover to an Earthy Lint Free Wipe and holding it on the nail for 15-20 seconds.  This allows the product to slowly soak in, then you can simply swipe the gel polish off.  If you do have difficulty removing the gel polish, you can gently buff the nail before applying Remover to break the Gel Lock seal.
After you’re done, give your nails a boost of hydration using our natural origin Cuticle Oil.
