{"title":"Blooming Base","description":"\u003cp\u003eBlooming base is a specialist gel formula that causes ink, pigment, and gel colour to spread and diffuse on contact, creating soft watercolour-style effects on the nail. It is the foundation product for blooming nail art techniques, where controlled colour spread produces organic, painterly designs that are difficult to achieve with standard gel application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow blooming base works\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen applied over a cured gel layer and left uncured, blooming base creates a reactive surface. Drops or strokes of gel ink or diluted colour gel applied on top spread outward through the blooming base, softening at the edges and blending naturally. The spread can be guided with a brush or left to move freely for a more organic result. Once the design is set, cure under lamp to lock it in place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWorking with blooming base\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLayer order:\u003c\/strong\u003e apply blooming base over a fully cured colour or base layer.
