Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Nails

Gently push back the cuticles using the tools provided in the Tones Dry Manicure Kit.
Use the Tones Nail Buffer 100/180 to lightly buff the nail surface and remove any shine.
Wipe the nails with Tones Sanitizing Solution or alcohol to cleanse away oils and dust.

Step 2: Extend or Shape the Nail with Tips or Forms

For Tones Nail Tips: Select a tip that fits the natural nail. Apply a small amount of Tones Brush-On Nail Glue, press the tip firmly for a few seconds, then trim and shape as desired.
For Tones Nail Forms: Position the form under the free edge of the natural nail and adjust it to the desired shape.

Step 3: Apply Dehydrator and Primer

Apply Tones Nail Prep Dehydrator to remove any remaining oils from the nail surface.
Apply Tones Ultrabond Primer to enhance acrylic adhesion.

Step 4: Prepare the Acrylic

Dip the Tones Acrylic Brush into Tones Acrylic Monomer.
Lightly dip the brush into the acrylic powder to form a smooth bead.

Step 5: Apply Acrylic to the Nails

For Tones Nail Tips: Start by applying the bead near the base of the nail, close to the cuticle. Work the product up and over the nail tip. Use the brush to flatten and smooth the acrylic across the entire nail, shaping it to your desired thickness. Repeat this step to build up the nail's strength and shape if needed.
For Tones Nail Forms: Start by applying the bead onto the nail form where the free edge of the nail will be. Extend and shape the nail by working with the brush to your desired shape and length. Apply another bead of acrylic closer to the cuticle area and work it upwards blending it into the extended portion of the nail.

Step 6: Let the Acrylic Dry

Allow the acrylic to dry completely. You’ll know it’s fully set when you tap it and hear a solid sound.
If using a nail form, gently remove the form by pulling it away from the hardened acrylic.

Step 7: Shape and Refine

Shape the nails using a Tones Nail File, refining the edges and contour as needed.
Buff the nail surface to ensure smoothness, and clean away any remaining dust.

Step 8: Finish with a Top Coat

Seal and enhance the shine by applying Tones Top Coat over the finished acrylic nails.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is Tones Pro Acrylic Powder and how is it different from colored acrylic powder?
Tones Pro Acrylic Powder is a professional-grade polymer formulated for the core techniques nail technicians rely on — nail bed coverage, French manicures, clear overlays, and extensions. Unlike colored Coverland polymers, Pro Acrylic Powders are designed for foundational nail work requiring precise, reliable performance in classic shades.

2. Is Tones Pro Acrylic Powder USA-made?
Yes. Tones Pro Acrylic Powders are manufactured in the USA to the highest professional standards — consistent quality you can rely on set after set, backed by 15+ years of professional nail formulation.

3. What monomer works best with Tones Pro Acrylic Powder?
Tones Pro Acrylic Powder pairs perfectly with Tones Pro Acrylic EMA Monomer — our MMA-free, HEMA-free professional liquid monomer. Together they form a complete USA-made professional acrylic system with optimal adhesion and set time.

4. How do I use professional acrylic powder for nail extensions?
Dip your acrylic brush into Tones EMA Monomer, pick up a bead of Pro Acrylic Powder, and apply to the natural nail or extension form. Sculpt to the desired shape and length. File and finish after curing. Always prep nails with dehydrator and primer for maximum adhesion.

5. What is the correct monomer-to-powder ratio for Tones Pro Acrylic Powder?
The ideal ratio is approximately 1.5:1 (liquid to powder) for a medium-wet bead. A wetter bead gives more working time; a drier bead sets faster. Adjust to your technique and working environment.

6. How long do acrylic nails made with Tones Pro Acrylic Powder last?
With proper nail prep and application technique, Tones Pro Acrylic Powder sets last 3–4 weeks before needing a fill. Client lifestyle and nail prep quality are the biggest factors in longevity.

7. What sizes are available for Tones Pro Acrylic Powder?
Tones Pro Acrylic Powder is available in 1.5 oz (42.52g), 3.5 oz (99.22g), and 8.5 oz (240.97g) — sized for individual nail technicians through to high-volume professional salons.

8. Can Tones Pro Acrylic Powder be used for 3D nail art?
Yes. Pro Acrylic Powders — especially Glass (clear) and Max White — are excellent for 3D nail art sculpting. For a broader range of vibrant colors for nail art, explore the Tones Acrylic Art Powder 3D Collections.

9. How do I prevent bubbles when applying Pro Acrylic Powder?
Bubbles form when air is trapped in the product or the brush is overworked. Use the correct liquid-to-powder ratio and apply in smooth, even strokes. Avoid overworking the bead after placement.

10. How do I store acrylic powder to maintain quality?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity. Keep the lid tightly closed when not in use. Properly stored, Tones Pro Acrylic Powder maintains quality for up to 3 years.
