1. Prep Your Nails (1 minute)
Start with clean, dry nails. File them into your desired shape (round, square, or almond) and push back cuticles gently. Wipe each nail with the included alcohol pad to remove oil—this helps the gel adhere better and last longer. No need for a separate base coat—One Coat Gel has you covered!
2. Apply One Coat Gel (1.5 minutes)
Shake the bottle well to mix the cat eye pigments. Use the curved brush to apply a thin, even layer over your entire nail. The brush’s flexible bristles hug the nail’s curve, so you won’t get polish on your skin (hello, no cleanup!). For opaque color, one layer is enough—no need to layer multiple coats.
3. Create Cat Eye Effect (30 seconds)
Here’s the fun part! Hold the included magnet 1-2mm away from your wet nail (don’t touch the gel!). Experiment with different angles to get your favorite look:
◦ Classic Straight Line: Hold the magnet vertically along the center of the nail for 5-10 seconds.
◦ Full Moon: Tilt the magnet slightly toward the tip for a soft, rounded cat eye.
◦ Galaxy Sparkle: Move the magnet in a gentle circular motion to disperse the pigments for a starry effect. The gel will “set” the cat eye pattern instantly—no waiting around!
4. Cure (1.5 minutes)
Place your nails under a UV/LED lamp (a standard 36W lamp works) for 60-90 seconds. Since One Coat Gel includes a built-in top coat, there’s no need to add a separate sealant—your nails will come out with a glossy, chip-resistant finish.
5. Finish & Admire (30 seconds)
Once cured, check for any uneven edges (though the brush makes this rare!). If needed, use a small cuticle pusher to clean up tiny mistakes. That’s it—you’ve got salon-worthy cat eye nails in just 5 minutes!
Pro Tips for Long-Lasting Results
• Avoid applying gel too thick—thin layers cure better and prevent chipping.
• For extra durability, wrap the gel slightly over the free edge of your nail.
• Store the magnet in a dry place to keep its strength (it works for dozens of manicures!).
• Switch up shades easily—with 9 colors, you can match your nails to your outfit, mood, or occasion (commute, date night, or travel!).
Final Thoughts
One Coat Gel isn’t just a nail polish—it’s a lifestyle upgrade for anyone who loves pretty nails but hates the time and hassle of traditional manicures. It’s perfect for busy professionals, travel enthusiasts, DIY lovers, and even students living abroad (no more expensive salon visits or shipping multiple products!).
