Nailboo Instructions: Step-by-Step

1. Prep Your Nails

Wash and dry your hands thoroughly.
Gently push back cuticles and shape nails using the provided file.
Lightly buff the nail surface to remove shine.

2. Apply Base Coat & Build Powder

Apply a thin layer of Base Coat to the nail.
Immediately dip into Build Powder at a 45-degree angle.
Tap off excess powder and brush lightly after drying.
Repeat for each nail.

3. Add Color

Apply another layer of Base Coat, then dip into your chosen Nailboo color powder.
Tap and brush off excess.
Repeat for a second coat for vibrant, even color.

4. Apply Activator

Once colored layers are done, apply a generous layer of Activator.
Let dry for 1–2 minutes, then shape and buff nails if needed.
Wipe nails with a dry cloth or paper towel.

5. Seal with Top Coat

Apply a thin layer of Top Coat and let dry.
Add a second coat for extra shine and durability.
