2. Apply a thin layer of your Lexy Line gel over the natural nail and form or tip
3. Cure for 1-minute in the LEDdot or LED MiniDot
4. Apply a thin slip layer over the entire nail, then roll off a dollop of your Lexy Line to build structure and allow to self level into the slip layer. Be sure to consider the nail length and shape when building structure. (If using a non-self leveling gel such as Builder, apply using the Frosting Technique)

Tips for achieving the best results using each LE color line over Lexy Line!

LE Color Gel & Glitter Gel
Consider the thickness of your Lexy Line product application because LE Color Gel and Glitter Gel can add thickness and additional strength to the nail. Color & Glitter Gels can also easily fill-in and camouflage small imperfections on the gel surface perfecting your finished nail!
LE Color and Glitter Gels

LE ButterCream
Be sure your nail structure is complete as ButterCream color gels should be applied very thin and do not add strength to the nail. ButterCream should be applied over a completely smooth gel surface. 

Remember, ButterCream is highly pigmented, yet thin and will show any imperfections in the nail. A Foamie File works great for creating a perfectly buffed and smooth gel surface for flawless ButterCream application! 
*Extra tip: Because ButterCreams are so pigmented, apply each ButterCream coat as thinly as a sheet of paper to ensure a proper cure!

P+ Gel Polish (soak-off)
P+ Gel Polish should be applied very thin and do not add strength to the nail. P+ Gel Polish should be applied over a completely smooth gel surface. 

A Foamie File works great for creating a perfectly buffed and smooth gel surface for flawless P+ Gel Polish application! 

P+ Gel Polish should always be finished with P+ Top Coat to ensure a long lasting beautiful shine. 

Pro Tip: For a matte finish, use the 280 side of the Foamie File, lightly buff the top coat and the viola, you have the perfect matte finish!
