Description

TITLE

FINGERNAIL AND TOENAIL ORGANIC POWDER WRAP

COATING TO APPLY WITH OR WITHOUT ARTIFICIAL TIPS

BACKGROUND

Artificial nails are applied onto the fingernails for various reasons, the most important reason among women is to enhance and beautify the fingernails by artificially lengthening the natural fingernails. Another reason for providing artificial nails is to protect the natural nails allowing them to grow into a strong healthy nail, unfortunately fingernail deterioration is accelerated by harsh chemicals, the underlying nail may have to be etched with an acid primer which damage the natural nail.

Furthermore, artificial application procedures may be painful and many persons are allergic to the chemicals that are used in these procedures.

Ventilation systems and masks are also needed to prevent the inhalation of chemicals fumes and toxic dust that accumulate on the lungs and can be built up and never be regurgitated. Chemical compositions that are used to build up over the natural fingernails and over the artificial nails can become heavy and weaken the underlying natural nails, making the natural nails thin and weak. Such products have to be removed from the fingernails with a soaking solution for long periods and can deteriate the condition of the natural nails and remain unattractive for a significantly period of time. Some artificial fingernail compositions that are applied to the natural nails cannot be removed with a soaking solution and only harsh aggressive filing can remove them, this can also weakens the natural nails.

SUMMARY OF INVENTION

It is therefore an object of invention to provide a multi-functional organic fingernail powder coating with no chemical ingredients and therefore eliminating offensive odours, allergic reactions and chemical fingernail damage often caused by such chemicals used on the fingernails.

It is a further object of invention to provide an organic nail wrap coating powder application, to first apply a thin layer of a cyanacrylate gel to the natural nails and using a flicking motion to apply the powder from a small powder bowl to cover the entire nail, to build layers of the powder in repeated steps, which effectively strengthens the natural fingernails providing a protective coating, preventing breakages and chipping as the natural nails grow.

It is therefore a further object of invention to provide an organic nail wrap powder as an alternative to the traditional acrylic powder and gel compositions, to extend the natural fingernails with the aide of an artificial tip that is positioned on the natural free edge with no blending required and a thin layer of a cyanacrylate gel is applied over the natural nail and artificial nail to build layers of the organic wrap powder coating to extend the natural nails.

It is therefore a further object of invention to provide an organic nail wrap powder coating to extend toenails with the aide of a French white tip with no blending required to the natural toenail, applying a thin layer of a cyanacrylate gel to the toenail and the artificial nail tip, one layer of the organic wrap powder is then applied by placing some powder on the edge of a file and tapping the side of the file to release the powder to cover the entire toenail, application is then repeated.

It is therefore a further invention to provide a smoothing motion to the fingernails to smooth the organic wrap powder in between steps using a smoothing block rather than the traditional rough buffmg, no heavy buffing or filing is needed in the application of the organic nail wrap powder. a

FIELD OF INVENTION

This invention relates to a multi-purpose organic fingernail wrap powder coating and is used together with a cyanacrylate gel to build up layers of the organic powder coating over the artificial nail tip to extend the length of the natural fingernails. The organic wrap powder is also used for applying a protective covering over the natural nails to strengthen weak brittle damaged fingernails leaving the nails a healthy natural pink tone with no need for a colour polish, and is also used to extend a French white artificial nail tip to the toenails.

DETAILED DISCRIPTION

The invention also features a method for applying the above described fingernail coating to human fingernails with or without an artificial tip and is also used to apply toenail extensions with the aide of an artificial tip placed over the edge of the nail. The nails are thoroughly washed and left to dry and a smoothing block is smoothed over the entire nail to remove any remaining oils from the nail without using alcohol to cleanse the nail or the use of a chemical nail dehydrator. The cyanacrylate gel coating is applied to the entire nail or artificial tip if extensions are being applied, the gel is applied to the nail with a conventional fingernail applicator brush, the powder is then applied to the nail from a small shallow powder bowl. The finger is then placed over the edge of the bowl and the powder is then flicked over the entire nail with the finger of the other hand. The nail is then dusted to remove any remaining powder from the nail with a soft cosmetic dust brush or a conventional manicure brush.

The nail is then gently smoothed over with a smoothing block, and the application is then repeated. To finish the nail application the nail is then sealed with the cyanacrylate gel coating and once dry smoothed over with a smoothing block to create a natural pink tone. The oil is then applied to massage the cuticles and condition the surrounding skin, a shine block is used to shine the nail like glass or a top coat is used first and then the use of the oil
