Technical specifications

What is the purpose of the central guide line on American-style capsules?

The Central Guide Line, or central guide line, is a distinctive feature of this Medium Round LuluNails model.

It acts as a visual guide to help centre the tip during application.

1. To make positioning easier

The line helps to check that the tip correctly extends the axis of the natural nail.

2. Minimising alignment errors

It makes it easier to spot a tip that is tilted to the right or left before curing.

3. Checking symmetry

The rounded shape must remain balanced on either side of the central axis.

4. Support the learning process

This guide can be particularly useful for those learning the American application technique.

5. Facilitating professional checks

Nail technicians can use the centre line as an additional aid during positioning.

LuluNails tip: the guide should be used in conjunction with observing the natural nail. A visually centred line does not, on its own, guarantee a correctly fitted tip.

How to apply Medium Round American tips using LuluNails Base Coat Expert?

For this American application method, use the LuluNails Expert UV/LED Base Coat as an adhesive, in accordance with the brand’s recommendations.

This is a UV/LED polymerisation bonding method, which differs from a conventional air-drying adhesive.

Equipment required

• LuluNails Medium Round American tips.

• LuluNails Expert UV/LED Base Coat.

• Professional nail file.

• Buffer.

• Dust brush.

• Suitable cleaner.

• Nail Prep or Primer if required by the procedure.

• Compatible UV/LED lamp.

• LuluNails Semi-Permanent Nail Polish.

• LuluNails Top Coat.

Step 1 – Prepare the natural nails

Clean your hands and carefully prepare the surface of the nails.

Gently push back the cuticles and remove any residue.

Prepare the natural nail plate according to the instructions for the system being used, without filing excessively.

Proper preparation helps to minimise the risk of lifting.

Do not apply the tips to a nail that is damaged, irritated or suspected of having an infection.

Step 2 – Choosing the right tip size

LuluNails Medium Round tips are available in 15 sizes, from 0 to 14.

Before applying the Base Coat Expert, try each tip on your natural nail.

Check:

• The width of the nail.

• The natural curve.

• The fit at the sides.

• The positioning near the cuticles.

• The alignment of the tip.

A tip that is too small may exert excessive pressure and cause discomfort.

Step 3 – Use the centre line to align the tip

Position the tip without any product to check its alignment.

Look at the central guide line.

This should help you compare the axis of the tip with that of the natural nail.

Check the result from the front and in profile.

If the tip appears misaligned, correct its position before securing it.

The rounded shape should look balanced on both sides.

Step 4 – Prepare the inside of the tip

Prepare the inner area to be apply the Base Coat Expert in accordance with the protocol applicable to this LuluNails product.

Check whether further surface preparation is required.

Do not routinely file the inside unless instructed to do so by the manufacturer.

Step 5 – Apply LuluNails Expert Base Coat

Use the LuluNails UV/LED Expert Base Coat in accordance with the curing protocol

Apply an appropriate amount to ensure even contact between the natural nail and the tip.

Gradually position the tip.

The product should spread evenly without forming any significant air bubbles.

Before curing, check:

• Alignment using the centre line.

• That there are no bubbles.

• That the Base Coat Expert is evenly distributed.

• That there is no overspill onto the skin.

• That the capsule is stable.

Remove any uncured excess from the skin or cuticles.

Step 6 – Cure under a UV/LED lamp

Ensure the tip is correctly positioned.

Cure under a compatible UV/LED lamp, following the curing instructions for LuluNails Expert Base Coat.

The base coat must be fully cured before applying opaque top coats.

Do not use an arbitrary curing time: the duration must be adapted to the product and the lamp.

Step 7 – Applying the finish

Once the base coat has fully cured, prepare the outer surface in accordance with the finishing protocol.

You can then use compatible LuluNails products:

• GelColor Semi-Permanent Nail Polish 10 ml.

• Gel Polish 7 ml.

• Glossy Top Coat.

• Matte Top Coat.

• Pat Pat Gel for ombre effects.

• Nail art accessories.

Follow the curing instructions specific to each product.

What manicures can you create with the Medium Round Capsules?

The medium-round shape allows you to create several styles, particularly suited to understated and elegant manicures.

Rounded French Manicure

The Medium Round shape allows you to create a classic white French manicure, a micro-French or a coloured French manicure.

Natural Nude Manicure

Pair the tips with a LuluNails semi-permanent nail varnish in nude, pale pink or natural beige for a subtle look.

Milky White Nails

A milky white finish creates a soft, luminous and modern manicure.

Medium Round, Almond or Square: which shape to choose?

The shape of American nail tips directly influences the result of the manicure.

Medium Round

A rounded tip, medium length and a soft silhouette.

Particularly suitable for classic French manicures, nude manicures and natural styles.

Almond

A gradually tapering shape with a soft tip.

Suitable for those wanting a more slender look.

Square – Square

A shape with relatively straight sides and a square tip.

The distinctive feature of the LuluNails Medium Round model is its central guide line, which provides additional visual assistance during alignment.

How can you avoid American tips being applied at an angle?

Misalignment can result in an asymmetrical finish, even when the tip is correctly attached.

To minimise this problem:

1. Choose a tip suited to the width and curvature of the nail.

2. Observe the natural axis of the finger.

3. Use the centre line as a positioning guide.

4. Check the sides and the front shape.

5. Correct the orientation before curing.

6. Keep the tip stable whilst curing.

The guide line facilitates visual checking, but the final quality always depends on the technique used.
