Abstract
A nail tip curing composition includes an Extend Gel, an edge-off flat brush, a nail filing device, a plurality of GEL-X tips, a pH Bonder, and a Non-Acidic Gel Primer. The pH Bonder forms a pH Bonder layer on a surface of a fingernail. The Non-Acidic Gel Primer forms a Non-Acidic Gel Prime layer overlapped on the pH Bonder layer. The Extend Gel forms an Extend Gel layer overlapped on the Non-Acidic Gel Prime layer. The GEL-X tip is filed by the nail filing device and the Extend Gel is applied on an underside contact surface of the Gel-X tip by the edge-off flat brush. The underside contact surface of the Gel-X tip is contacted with the Extend Gel layer on the fingernail in such a manner that the Gel-X tip is firmly affixed on the fingernail.
Claims10
An artificial nail and curing composition set for a fingernail, comprising:
- at least one artificial nail tip, the artificial nail tip being made of acrylic material and having an underside surface which can be filed into a plurality of indented grooves;
- a nail filing device configured for filing the underside surface of an artificial nail tip to form a plurality of indented grooves;
- an adhesive composition consisting of:
- (a) 60.0 75-80.0% by weight of polyurethane acrylate oligomers;
- (b) 10.0-15.0% by weight of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate;
- (c) 1.0-5.0% by weight of 1-hydroxycyclohexyl phenyl ketone;
- (d) 1.0-5.0% by weight of phenylbis(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide;
- and
- a flat brush for applying the adhesive composition to the plurality of indented grooves on the underside of an artificial nail tip and to a surface of a fingernail;
- wherein curing the adhesive composition with UV light for about 2 minutes forms a bonding layer between the indented grooves on the underside of the artificial nail tip and the surface of the fingernail;
- and
- wherein the bonding layer affixes the artificial nail tip to the surface of the fingernail for at least two weeks.
