Application Method
STRENGTHENING
Removal.
Do not file the nail shape or leave 2 mm length to be removed after leveling.
Lightly file the surface with a 220-grit file without pressure, lifting the nail plate scales, or use a 100-grit buffer.
Perform manicure.
If using removers, wash hands with soap afterward.
Degrease the nail using Nail Prep LUNAmoon (2 passes, 4 wipes total — 1 wipe per 5 fingers):
- First pass: wipe the nail surface
- Second pass: use an orange stick with a wipe to clean cuticle area and sidewalls
Primer is optional. If the base has sufficient acidity, it is not required.
Apply Rubber Base LUNAmoon with a flat gel brush using rubbing motions. Cover all sidewalls and cure for 60 seconds.
Remove tacky layer.
Level with gel, keeping 0.5–1 mm distance from the cuticle. Cure for 60 seconds.
File the shape after leveling to create thickness at the free edge.
If the natural nail is thin, it may curl — file 1 mm from the inside to prevent lifting. If the material is rigid and the nail is very soft, the natural nail may separate from the product at the free edge.
Remove tacky layer and apply gel polish.
Apply top coat and cure for 120 seconds. Do not wipe after curing to maintain shine.
CLASSIC EXTENSIONS
Removal.
Shorten the nail to 1 mm and create a rounded shape.

Apply LUNAmoon Primer.
Apply Rubber Base LUNAmoon with a flat brush, cure for 60 seconds.

Reapply Rubber Base on filed areas, cure for 30 seconds.
