AquaColor Pen Tutorial
Instructions
Preparation is everything...
- Use the Bluesky Nail File to file your nails to the desired shape.
- Push back and trim your cuticles.
- Gently buff your nails with your Bluesky Nail Buffer.
- Clean your nails with a Bluesky Cleanser Wipe.
- To prep your AquaColor pen if it's your first time using it, you'll also need to open the box and remove the empty pen and cartridge; disassemble the pen and carefully remove the rubber cap from the cartridge keeping the cartridge upright.
- Plug the cartridge into the pen and reassemble.
Choose a white or light colour...
- Apply a thin layer of Bluesky Base Coat to all five nails, capping the ends. Avoid the skin and cuticle.
- Cure for 60 seconds under the Bluesky lamp, it will still be tacky but this is normal.
- Apply a white/light colour polish in the same way as the base coat; a thin coat, cap the end, avoid your skin.
- Cure for 60 seconds.
- Repeat steps 3 and 4 building up the colour each time. 1 coat will give a sheer finish, 2 is normal, 3 will be a solid colour.
- Take your desired AquaColor pen and get designing! As shown above, dotting small circles and then use your brush to help you create patterns.
- Let each design dry naturally for 30-60 seconds before applying a top coat and curing for 60 seconds.
- Use a Bluesky Cleanser Wipe to remove the sticky residue leaving super shiny nails.
