How to

Step 1: Nail Prep Scrub each nail with a lint-free pad thoroughly to remove any oils or lotions.

Step 2: Base Coat Apply two layers to each nail, allowing each coat to dry matte. If Base Coat is cloudy or jelly-like, stand the bottle in one inch of hot water until the product becomes clear. **Do not microwave or submerge in water. 

Step 3: Lacquer Apply two layers of Nail Lacquer to each nail, allowing each layer to dry matte. **Avoid contact with cuticles and skin to prevent lifting.

Step 4: Top Coat Apply one layer of Top Coat to each nail after the Lacquer has dried matte. Wait five minutes—your manicure is done!

+Revive: Add 6-8 drops of Revive to a Top Coat, Transform, or Nail Lacquer whose consistency is too thick. Add more if necessary. 

**DO NOT add Revive to a Base Coat. It will ruin the product. Store with original cap to prevent evaporation from occurring.

Vivian Valenty, Penn State Alumna
Dazzle Dry Inventor/ VB Cosmetics Founder

"As a proud Penn State alumna, some of my most meaningful life memories were shaped during my time there. From seeing the bright autumn leaves on campus for the first time, meeting my husband, and welcoming our first child. The people I met and the experiences I had there played a profound role in shaping who I am today. I view this partnership between Dazzle Dry and Penn State as a way to give back and an opportunity for further involvement with my alma mater."
