Gently place the shaped flower (cur to fit if necessary) and use a handheld lamp to flash cure it into place. If the flower is too large and unable to lay flat, gently press it into place with a clear piece of plastic, holding it in place and flash cure through the clear plastic to ensure it’s as flat as possible to the nail. Here's a video example.  Fully cure once all flowers are placed. Encapsulate with a layer of builder gel and finish file if necessary. Use your finger to feel for any protruding corners or bits. Remove all dust and debris and add top gel, cure. Application tips for dried flowers with traditional polish: After applying your base coat and color, let it dry completely. Before you apply your flower(s) test your placement and trim to fit as flat as possible. Apply a dot of clear polish or nail glue (you’ll have to work fast with nail glue) Place your flower(s) and let the polish or glue dry completely. Apply a thick topcoat to seal in the flower(s), if it’s not laying completely flat, you’ll have scratchy bits. Please note, dried flowers will still have raised texture under traditional polish.
