Nails: Watercolour Florals by Julie Anne

With Watercolour Florals an upcoming AW19 nail trend, Salon System nail expert Julie Anne has created a step-by-step using Gellux gel polish to help you recreate this look in the salon. 

Step 1

Prepare the nails. File to shape and push back cuticles and buff nail plate. Cleanse nails with Gellux Profile Prep + Wipe. 

Apply Gellux Fast Bond to nails and let dry. Apply Gellux Easy Off Base Coat and cure.

Apply two layers of Gellux Piggy Pink gel polish, curing after each layer. 

On a piece of foil place three drops of Gellux Easy off Base Coat and mix each drop with a very small amount Gellux Surf's Up, Gellux You Can Can and Gellux Peach Perfect to create three sheer colours. 

Dip a detail brush into Gellux You Can Can shade and create small randomly placed petals on the side of each nail, and cure. 

Step 6

Repeat Step 5 using the Gellux Peach Perfect, and cure.

Step 7

Now repeat Step 5 using the Gellux Surf's Up, and cure.

Step 8

Dip a fine liner brush into Gellux Black Onyx and paint random petals and dots over the petals you have created previously, cure for 60 seconds.

Apply Gellux Shiny Top Coat, and cure. Wipe with Prep&Wipe and apply Gellux Nail & Cuticle Oil.
