Really Fully Covering
Provides basically full coverage with one layer. Many of the other colors require at least two layers even though they are supposed to be fully covering. The color is also incredibly beautiful clear red - perfect now when you're longing for spring, but would also work perfectly for fall😍1 product in post Really Fully Covering545 views
DependGel iQSpring Awakening Glow Within
Introducing the new gel formula with high IQ! Quick and easy application that delivers a super glossy finish with a plumping effect, setting it apart from regular nail polish. NO PREP means you don’t have to file your natural nail or use harsh primers that can damage your nail quality, which is a total no-go. Gel iQ only requires a light cleanse with a gentle Pre-Cleanser before you dive into your polish treatment. The UV/LED lamp is specially designed with a curing time of just 30 seconds for each application step. The synergy between the lamp and polish creates a self-leveling effect, smoothing out any streaks during curing, even if your application isn’t perfectly even.
After curing the top coat in the lamp, finish off with the High Shine Cleanser to reveal an incredible shine and color payoff. Your polish is now cured, dry, and ready to be touched without any worries about chips. Gel iQ gives you a long-lasting result for up to 14 days.
Usage:
Important: If the base coat, colored polish, or top coat comes into contact with the skin around the nail, it must be removed before curing with Gel iQ Pre-Cleanser on a cotton swab. This applies to steps 2, 3, and 4 below. To get the right amount of polish on the brush, wipe it against the inside of the bottle neck first.
Here’s how to apply Gel iQ on your nails:
1. Cleansing: Apply Gel iQ Pre-Cleanser on a cotton pad and thoroughly cleanse your nails. Let the nail dry for 30 seconds to ensure it’s completely dry. Avoid touching the nail surface after cleaning.
2. Base Coat: Apply a thin layer of Gel iQ Base Coat. Cure for 30 seconds in the UV/LED lamp.
3. Color: Next, apply a thin layer of Gel iQ Color. Cure for 30 seconds in the UV/LED lamp. Then apply another thin layer of Gel iQ Color and cure for 30 seconds in the UV/LED lamp.
4. Top Coat: Apply a thin layer of Gel iQ Top Coat and cure for 30 seconds in the UV/LED lamp.
5. Cleaning/Top Finishing: Your nail will now have a sticky surface that needs to be removed to achieve the ultimate shine. It’s crucial to cleanse the entire nail surface with Gel iQ High Shine Cleanser. Wipe the surface with a firm motion to eliminate the sticky layer. You’ll need at least 12 cotton pads on hand.
Here’s how to do it for each nail:
1. Generously apply Gel iQ High Shine Cleanser on a cotton pad.
2. Place the wet side of the pad over the entire nail and wait for 5 seconds.
3. Press with two fingers on the pad to ensure even pressure across the nail surface. Then, pull from the cuticle up to the tip of the nail in a firm motion.
4. Switch to a new clean pad for each nail and repeat the same steps for all nails.
5. Once all nails are cleaned using this method, do another cleanse with the cleanser. This will enhance the amazing shine and luster of the color. Dampen the pad with cleanser and clean from the cuticle out towards the tip of the nail. Start in the middle and then move to the left and right sides. Use a new clean pad for each hand.
6. Important! Finish the entire treatment by washing your hands thoroughly with soap and water.
You’re now done with the treatment and have a high-gloss, durable manicure that lasts about 2 weeks.

Avoid contact with eyes. If the product gets in your eyes, rinse gently with water for several minutes, remove any contact lenses, and continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists, seek medical advice/care.
Always cure for 30 seconds between each layer in the UV/LED lamp. Shorter times will not cure the material properly, increasing the risk of allergies and reducing durability.

How to Use:
How to apply Gel iQ to the nails on your hands:
1. Cleaning: Apply Gel iQ Pre-Cleanser to a cotton wool pad and thoroughly clean
your nails. Allow your nails to dry completely for 30 seconds. Do not touch the nail surface
after it has been cleaned.
2. Base Coat: Apply a thin coat of Gel iQ Base Coat. Cure for 30 seconds
under the UV/LED lamp.
3. Colour: Now apply a thin coat of Gel iQ colour. Cure for 30 seconds under the UV/LED lamp.
Then apply another thin coat of Gel iQ colour and cure for 30 seconds
under the UV/LED lamp.
4. Top Coat: Apply a thin coat of Gel iQ Top Coat and cure for
30 seconds under the UV/LED lamp.
5. Cleaning/Top Finishing:
At this point the surface of your nails will be sticky; this stickiness must be removed to ensure a high shine. Therefore, it is important to clean the entire surface of the nail with Gel iQ High Shine Cleanser. Gently wipe the surface of the nail with the pad when removing the sticky surface. Keep at least 12 pads handy.
"Do not use Gel iQ:
If you have ever experienced any reaction after use of UV/LED-cured nail products.
If you are allergic to acrylates, as these products may cause an allergic reaction.
If your cuticles are split or damaged, etc. or if your nails are in poor condition (thin, dry or split).
If you bite your nails or have short nails, where the tip of your nail (the top) ends below the skin of your fingertips.
Warning: Avoid skin contact. Read directions for use carefully. Keep out of reach of children. May cause allergic reaction. If any adverse reaction occurs, stop using the product. In case of contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice. Store locked up, at room temperature, out of direct sunlight. The product is not intended for use by persons under 16 years old.
Safety information:

Avoid contact with skin. If applied to nails, care should be taken to ensure application to the surface of the nail only and not surrounding skin or cuticles. If on skin or cuticles, remove the product carefully using Gel iQ Pre-Cleanser on a cotton bud. Once curing is complete, wash skin carefully with soap and water to remove any incidental contamination.
Avoid contact with eyes. If in eyes: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention.
Always cure for 30 seconds between each coat using the UV/LED lamp. A shorter curing time will result in under-cured material and consequently an increased risk of allergy and a less durable finish.
Allergy information: Contains ingredients that have the potential to cause an allergic reaction in sensitive persons. Stop using this product if you develop redness or itching. If you experience a smarting pain, itching or swelling during the treatment, remove uncured material using a cotton wool pad moistened with Gel iQ Pre-Cleanser, and then wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water. If the problems persist, contact a doctor for advice. If skin irritation or rash occurs after treatment: Get medical advice/attention.
When applying products, always leave a decent safety margin around the cuticles.
Read through the separate set of instructions for the UV/LED lamp before using it for the first time. Do not look directly at the light from the UV/LED lamp when it is in use. Always unplug the lamp when you have finished applying the products. The lamp has a timer, which must always be set to 30 seconds. The lamp generates heat and may feel slightly hotter if you have thin nails or apply too thick a coat of gel to the nail. This abates after treatment.
