Abstract Gel is an intensely pigmented, thick black painting gel that allows the creation of dramatic abstract patterns and creative designs. Its special feature is that, when applied over Abstract Base, it flows on its own across the surface, producing exciting, random patterns, lines, and spots – as if the design forms itself on the nail. This natural, spontaneous effect makes each nail unique and one-of-a-kind.
How to use:
-
Prepare the nail as usual and apply a colored base or gel polish as the base color.
-
Apply Abstract Base and pre-cure for about 30 seconds – do not fully cure.
-
On the semi-cured base, apply Abstract Gel with a thin brush in dots, lines, waves, or across the entire surface.
-
Use a dotting tool or orange stick to create small holes – these will guide the gel’s flow.
-
Watch as the material “comes to life” and flows on its own, creating the unique abstract effect.
-
Flow time depends on the depth of the design: small holes approx. 10 sec, larger 30–60 sec.
-
Once the desired effect is reached, fully cure under the lamp and seal with top coat.
Professional tips:
-
Experiment with material amount: less = finer, dotted effect; more = higher contrast, more striking pattern.
-
Combine with different shades or other decorations for enhanced effects.
-
Abstract Gel works best on natural nails, as body temperature (35–36 °C) helps the flow. If needed, use a warmer environment or near a lamp.
-
Use a thin brush for precise lines or a dotting tool for marbled, ink-like patterns.
-
Before full curing, gently move the pattern to further shape the abstract effect.
Abstract Gel is perfect for any creative nail artist who loves artistic, spontaneous yet controlled designs. Ideal for modern, elegant, and expressive manicures.
