Step-by-Step Execution Guide

  1. Icy Base: Paint a sheer, pastel sky-blue or iridescent white shimmer polish as your foundation; cure for 60 seconds.
  2. Waterfall Glitter Gradient: Sweep fine silver holographic glitter from the cuticle area downward toward the middle of the nail, fading it out softly to create a fountain cascade effect.
  3. 3D Water Drips:
    • Using clear 3D building gel paste, place raised droplets and long dripping streams along the length of the nail.
    • Flash cure each droplet for 10 seconds to keep the water droplets round and dimensional.
  4. Crystal Placement: Embed tiny AB round flat-back crystals into the wet base near the cuticle line to mimic mist catching light.
  5. Final Cure: Cure for a full 90 seconds under your UV/LED lamp and cap surrounding areas with a glossy top coat.
