French Modeling

1. With a small amount of French Modeling on your brush, sculpt a nail extension. Roll the product onto the nail form or tip higher up than the clients natural smile line. This will gives the appearance of a longer nail plate. Roll the brush side to side down to the client's desired length.

2. Using a clean, dry brush, keep the brush flat to the surface; create a crisp "French" smile line.

3. Cure in the light. Repeat on the other hand.

Fill in the area up to the already cured white resin. It is important to keep product thin around cuticle area and thicker towards the smile line. If product gets on the cuticle or surrounding skin remove it before curing in the light.
