From preparation to application and maintenance, we’ll cover everything you need to know to master the art of acrylic nails.
Essential Tools and Preparation
SAVILAND’s complete acrylic nail kitincludes everything needed for successful home manicures. It contains three different acrylic powders, one acrylic monomer liquid, three brushes of varying sizes, and additional tools such as a nail drill, gel nail polish, base and top coats, and nail art decorations. Before starting, prep your nails by buffing them gently, pushing back the cuticles, and cleaning with alcohol to remove oils. This ensures better adhesion of the acrylic mixture.
Proper preparation sets the stage for flawless results. Gather all necessary supplies, including SAVILAND’s pink acrylic powder and acrylic liquid monomer. Mix the powder and liquid in a 1.5:1 ratio for optimal consistency. Start by laying down a base layer from the cuticle to the tip, setting the foundation for your design. Each step, from mixing the monomer and powder to applying the initial layers, requires attention to detail to ensure a smooth and professional finish.
Application Techniques
Mix the acrylic liquid and powder in a 1:1.5 ratio until the consistency resembles soft-serve ice cream. Dip your brush into the mixture and start applying it from the cuticle area, working towards the tip. Build thickness gradually and shape the nails as you go. Allow each layer to dry completely before moving on to the next. Use the nail drill to refine the edges and achieve the desired shape. Once the base is ready, let your creativity run wild with paints, decals, or rhinestones.
Mixing the acrylic liquid and powder correctly is crucial for achieving the desired consistency. Too much liquid makes the mixture too thin, leading to weak nails, while too much powder makes it difficult to work with. The ideal ratio ensures that the mixture is neither too runny nor too thick, allowing for smooth application and shaping. After applying each bead, gently press and shape the nail using the brush. This step-by-step process ensures a strong and durable base that lasts.
Daily Care Tips for Longevity
Maintaining your acrylic nails requires regular care. Keep them moisturized with SAVILAND’s nourishing cuticle oil to prevent dryness and peeling. Avoid using your nails as tools, such as opening cans or scraping off stickers, as this can lead to cracks and breaks. Protect your manicure from harsh chemicals by wearing gloves during household chores. Regularly check for lifting or chipping and patch up any areas promptly to maintain the integrity of your acrylics.
