• Consistency: Has a medium consistency and is self-leveling, providing a smooth and even layer.

• Curing lamp: Requires a 36–48 W lamp (must be an original lamp).

• Durability: Offers long wear of 3–4 weeks without lifting or chipping.

• Removal: Can be removed by filing or by using liquid.

• Hypoallergenic: This base is suitable for sensitive skin and has a neutral scent.

Application method:

1. Removal:

   • Do not file the nail shape or leave it 2 mm long, so you can remove the excess length after leveling.

   • Use a 220-grit file to gently file the nail without applying too much pressure, so you lift the scales of the nail plate. You can also use a 100-grit buffer.

2. Manicure:

   • Wash your hands with soap after using a remover.

   • Degreasing: Use Nail Prep LUNA to properly degrease the nail. Do this in two steps:

     1. Wipe the nail surface with a wipe.

     2. Wrap an orangewood stick in a wipe and use it to clean the cuticle and the nail grooves.

3. Dehydrating:

   • Apply a dehydrator (if needed).

4. Primer:

   • Ultrabond LUNA (optional): Apply Ultrabond LUNA with a semi-dry brush and wait one minute to allow it to absorb well into the nail plate.

5. Applying Rubber Base:

   • Apply the Rubber Base LUNA with a flat gel brush. Move the brush tip over the nail to cover all the cuticle areas well. Cure under the lamp for 60 seconds.

   • Remove the sticky layer after curing.

6. Leveling with Rubber Base:

   • Apply the Rubber Base LUNA to level the nail. Cure under the lamp for 90 seconds.

   • After leveling, you can file the shape of the nail to create a good thickness at the free edge, so the nail remains strong.

7. Final Steps:

   • Remove the stickiness after filing.

   • Apply a thin layer of gel polish or cover base.

   • Finish with a top coat and cure it for 120 seconds.

   • Note: Do not wipe the nails after curing to maintain the shine.
