    • The shades of the varnish cannot change dramatically - you won’t get red from green. But if you apply more layers to the tip of the nail, the color will smoothly transition into another. Manufacturers are rapidly expanding their range. Now there is an interesting black and white and black and red thermal varnish. And soon we hope to get even more original contrasting shades.
    • Do not apply too thick layers. This will make the thermal effect weaker.
    • There is no need to dry the coating under the rays of a lamp!
    • If the product in the bottle has thickened, the liquid will no longer help correct the situation. When diluted, the varnish will lose its quality.
    • The temperature of the nail plate is heterogeneous in different areas. It is higher near the cuticle, and slightly lower near the tip of the nail. Sensitive temolaks respond to this by creating a beautiful gradient design.
    • To change the color of the varnish, you can put your hands in cold (or vice versa, warm) water. Sometimes it's enough to pick up a cup of hot tea.
    • Leave 1-2 mm between the cuticle and the chameleon layer to allow oxygen to reach the nail.
    • It is necessary to remove the varnish with a regular liquid without acetone.
    • If the temperature rises, the varnish becomes lighter, and when the temperature drops, it darkens.
    • In the bottle you will not be able to accurately guess the color and its shades. The instructions and pictures on the insert will tell you this better.

    Bestseller! Bluesky TC21

TC21 is a rich pink with a hint of purple coverage when cool and a subtle nude translucent finish when warm. For dense coverage it is necessary to apply 2-3 layers. BlueSky TC21 in a cold state:

    What is thermovarnish and how it works?

    The very name of the product suggests that its action is somehow related to heat or temperature. The mechanism of action of the varnish is based on a change in shade depending on the ambient temperature. The composition of the product contains particles that react to the ambient temperature and to the temperature of the fingers themselves.

    Thermal varnishes are presented in various color variations: from white to purple. However, it is quite difficult to guess what the color will be at a certain temperature and how it will change. Thermal varnishes are usually sold with inserts that show results at different temperatures. Dark shades will help to visually lengthen short nails, while light shades will visually hide the imperfections of the plate.

    When buying a chameleon varnish, pay attention to this point: when the temperature rises, the coating becomes lighter, and when the temperature drops, on the contrary, it darkens. This varnish is ideal for the off-season, when the difference between the house and the street will be especially noticeable. The peculiarity of thermovarnish is that the free edge of the nail is usually darker than the nail plate itself, since it does not receive heat from the fingers

    This creates the effect of a French manicure. Remember that the coating will inevitably draw attention to your hands, so all nails should be the same length, neatly filed and processed. The color of the coating may vary in different areas of the nail plate.

    Advantages and disadvantages

    Nail design made with a special varnish has the following advantages:

    • the coating changes shades, so the manicure looks renewed in different weather conditions;
    • ease of application and drying;
    • wide palette of colors;
    • Thermo shellac retains lasting tinting for up to 2-4 weeks;

    • a UV lamp is required to fix the multilayer coating;
    • must be performed;
    • This type of varnish is not suitable for decorating short nails.

    Preparation for manicure and technology

    Girls should distinguish between a classic thermovarnish and one that is based on a gel. In the first case, the substance is not much different from classic varnish, and therefore stays on the nails for three to four days. This substance can be removed with acetone.

    There is no need to contact a specialist to apply conventional thermovarnish.

    You just need to do a manicure (pay special attention to the shape of the nails) and cover with a base substance. After waiting for it to dry completely, you can begin applying thermovarnish.

    To create a more durable manicure, it is recommended to go to a salon: the master will do the job not only efficiently, but also quickly. Those interested can try to carry out a similar procedure at home, but for this they will need:

    • Primer (degreaser)
    • Base
    • Thermal nail polish (any color)
    • Fixer
    • Ultraviolet lamp

    Application technology

    If you have already acquired everything you need and have cleaned your nails, you can proceed to a simple coating algorithm:

    • Initially, you need to wipe your hands with an antiseptic and treat your nails with the soft side of the buff (this will allow you to carefully remove the glossy layer)
    • At the next stage, a primer is applied - a degreasing base, which prepares the nails for subsequent procedures.
    • The base coat is applied in a thin layer and dried in a lamp for a minute (this time may vary for different lamps, so carefully read the instructions for the device)
    • Next, the surface is directly coated with gel polish, which also needs to be dried in a UV lamp. If desired, you can apply several layers - this will make the color more saturated and vibrant
    • The manicure is completed by applying a fixer.
    • After finally drying your nails in the lamp, it is recommended to remove the sticky layer from the surface of the nails. To do this, you can use special substances or a simple alcohol-containing solution.

    And now about each shade in order

    Bluesky TC06 is a dark green, at a certain angle, rather teal in the cold state and azure in the warm state, enamel coating without any inclusions. The brush is standard, for a dense color it is necessary to apply 2 layers. Dries in a UV lamp in a standard 2 minutes. Let's look at it in all its glory! BlueSky TC06 in cold state:

    What is it about

    Thermogel is a special material used for nail extensions or plate coating. The result is a manicure that changes depending on the temperature around it. Thermogel is the same shellac, but it can be used for full extensions.

    Of course, the main feature of this coating is its chameleonic nature. Many masters note that French manicure with such shellac looks very unusual and attractive. Most often at high temperatures, it has a light color, even translucent, if we talk about French manicure.

    This light shade is located at the beginning of the bed. The closer to the end of the nail, the lower the temperature becomes, therefore the color changes to darker.

    So, in a warm room in winter you can be the owner of a beautiful jacket, and when you go outside, the shellac will change its color to a rich one.

    Temperature and Color Features:

    • Lighter pigments appear in warm ambient air.
    • Normal conditions, room temperature, will allow you to become the owner of a two-color manicure.
    • Cold temperatures will make your manicure both bright and rich.

    Thermal gel can be worked in two different ways. If you have natural nails, then before starting work, you need to degrease the surface of the plate, treat it with a buff, and then cover it with a primer.

    A base gel is applied on top. Application should be done in a thin layer. It will take two to three minutes to dry the base. The base is necessary so that the shellac does not paint the surface of the nails in the color of your choice.

    After this, you can apply thermal gel polish, which also dries for two to three minutes. If you apply the gel in two layers, then each layer will require a separate two-minute drying time. After this, the finishing gel is applied. It also takes two to three minutes to dry.

    Don't forget that the coating should seal the ends of the nails, then you can count on the shellac to last for several weeks, not days. Removal may vary depending on the product. Often, preliminary filing of the top glossy layer and subsequent softening with a special liquid are used.

    If your nails are made of acrylic or gel, then after modeling you need to remove the sticky layer from the base gel and cover your nails with thermal gel, as if you were just applying shellac. Drying in a UV lamp takes about three minutes.

    In order for the color intensity to be higher, it will be necessary to repeat the procedure by applying a second layer. After this, a top coat is used.

    Thermal gel nail design can be different. You can apply a variety of designs or use a regular jacket. Don’t forget about quality preparation, and the result will please you for a long time.

    Design ideas

    Manufacturers of nail polishes are actively working on creating new collections of coatings with thermal effect and other chameleon effects. Therefore, you can find many photos with original designs. Let's look at some of the most unusual and stylish options for decorating nails using this coating.

    In this video you can see an unusual three-color coating from the popular Dance Legend brand. It looks great on nails, and when reacting to changes in temperature, it forms three main currents and two transition currents on their surface.

    Another great option for creating a stylish and unusual design is a combination of rich purple chameleon polish from Patrisa Nail and soft white gel paint. To create such a design, you need to make a drawing with the thinnest brush, then place the brush with chameleon gel just above the outline of the drawing and move it upwards. Carefully coat the nail in two layers and apply the topcoat

    It is important to do the work carefully so as not to get into the white lace design (you can use a stencil). The photo of this design turned out stylish and bright


    Unusual French design with chameleon gel polish.

    Reviews of chameleon varnishes indicate that the best effect can be achieved on long nails. Due to the fact that the nail plastic does not have the same temperature at the base and at the tip, a beautiful, graceful color transition occurs from light at the base and dark at the tips.

    Here are a few more photos with interesting design options. Below are mainly works with varnishes that change color depending on the viewing angle.

    How to apply?

    Thermal varnish should be used in the same way as ordinary gel polish. There are no differences in the application method. To create a nail design using thermovarnish you will need the following tools:

    • means for removing excess moisture (this may be a dehydrator, degreaser or other similar substances);
    • devices for working with cuticles;
    • primer;
    • basic foundation;
    • gel polish;
    • finish;
    • cuticle nourishing oil.

    Work on creating a manicure should begin with treating your hands with an antiseptic composition. After this, the nails are prepared - the cuticle is removed and the desired shape is given to the nail plate.

    Next, the nail is coated with an acid-free primer. This manipulation is necessary to remove natural fat from the nails and protect them from various damages. After these steps, the base is applied and dried in a lamp. Drying time depends on the type of equipment. For example, it will take about a minute to dry in LED lamps, and 2 minutes for ultraviolet devices.

    The next stage is applying thermovarnish to the prepared nail plate. The product is distributed over the nail in an even thin layer and dried in a lamp for at least 2 minutes. Then the nails are covered with a second layer and dried. Coating in two layers allows you to get bright and rich colors. After this, a top coat is applied to the nails and dried. And the last maneuver is to rub oil (you can use olive, sesame, castor or other types) into the cuticle to actively nourish it.

    Best ideas

    A manicure with thermovarnish is not always a monochromatic coating that gradually changes its shade to another. There are a huge number of ideas that you can implement on your nails and beautifully play up your nail design with thermal varnish.

    Thermo nail polish appeared on the market relatively recently, but has already gained popularity due to its unusual properties. Like a chameleon, the polish changes color depending on the ambient temperature.

    For fashionistas who like to change their look often, this is just a godsend. Not everyone has the patience and time to repaint their nails every day, but thermal varnish can change color on its own without any outside effort.

    Manicure ideas with thermovarnish

    Thermo gel polish is a great field for flights of fancy when creating a manicure design. You can make a background with patterns or rhinestones; voluminous inlay on a changing shade of varnish will look beautiful. Also, a combination of stamping and thermovarnish will create an unusual and interesting manicure.

    Thermovarnish is an excellent choice for those who do not want to spend a lot of time on a manicure and who are constantly bored with a single-color coating. In addition, the changing color of your nails is not only very fun to watch yourself, but also the admiring glances of passers-by will always allow you to be the center of everyone’s attention.

    Application technique: short and clear

    Applying thermovarnish is no different from regular varnish. Regardless of the chosen coating, before the procedure it is necessary to prepare the nail plate - process the cuticle, file it, treat it with a buffer and degrease the nail.

    Coating nails with thermovarnish

    • Apply one coat of base coat to your nails.
    • Apply a layer of thermovarnish. If you don't have a base coat, you can apply thermal varnish twice to the nail. The first layer dries very quickly, the second - from 7 to 15 minutes.
    • Secure with drying or protective varnish.

    The technique for coating a nail with thermal gel polish is also standard:

    • the nail plate is covered with a layer of topcoat and dried in a UV or LED lamp;
    • 2 layers of gel polish with a thermal effect are successively applied to the nail, each layer is polymerized in a special lamp;
    • The manicure is sealed with a top coat and must be dried in a lamp.

    When applying each layer, do not forget to seal the end of the nail with the coating.

    How to remove thermal polish from nails

    The methods for removing thermal gel polish are no different from the methods for removing regular gel polish.

    Shellac can be removed in several ways:

    • soaking in gel polish remover,
    • hardware removal.

    The gel polish can be removed quite easily with a milling cutter, but there is a high risk of simply sawing through your nail, so you shouldn’t do this yourself if you don’t have confidence and experience in using this procedure.

    To remove with a special liquid you will need:

    • Cotton pads,
    • the liquid itself,
    • foil or special clips.

    Cotton pads are generously moistened with gel polish remover and applied tightly to the nail. Next, you need to wrap your nails in foil or use clips - the difference here is not fundamental, the main thing is to firmly press the cotton wool soaked in liquid onto the nail for a long time. Usually this time is indicated on the packaging of the product. On average it takes at least 7-10 minutes.

    After soaking, the gel polish will begin to come off the nail on its own. It must be removed from the nail with a pusher or an orange stick. It is important not to damage the nail plate. Usually, nails deteriorate not because gel polish was applied to them, but because its removal was careless.

    Thermo gel polish palette. Properties of thermal varnish

    When the ambient temperature changes, hands come into contact with any object or water, a soft and effective color transition is created. The product works especially well on long nails of any shape - round, square or pointed.

    The fact is that the nail plate itself will always be warm, and the free edge of the regrown nail is cooler, since it does not come into contact with the skin and is the first to freeze when going outside or other environmental changes. Multi-colored manicure can be done on nails of any length. Stunning gradients are guaranteed.

    Gel polishes do not emit an unpleasant odor. They are very easy to work with because they have a thick consistency. Together with the top and base, the double coating forms a thick, durable layer. It should be noted that basically the color change occurs instantly. Although there are certain products that repaint more slowly.

    Color-changing varnish is a specific manicure option that will be unusual for many. Often the color change occurs unevenly, in spots. It looks original. Some people think it's not so beautiful. Not for everyone. This is especially noticeable when water drops or a sharp temperature influence occurs - a spotty or uneven color change occurs. For example, only the tips or nails on only a few fingers are darkened/lightened or repainted.

    All the amazing properties of thermal varnish are due to the presence of particles in the composition that are sensitive to temperature changes. Looking at the polish in the package, it is impossible to imagine exactly how it will manifest itself on the nails.

    To evaluate the effect, you need to use the product for its intended purpose and expose your hands to temperature. For example, direct warm or cold air from the air conditioner onto your fingers, go outside, or put your hands in water of different temperatures. Then it will be possible to appreciate the speed, beauty, all the subtleties and variations of color changes.

    Typically, the manufacturer will place color swatches on an insert in the package. And on a manicure chamomile with samples, the color will always be the same.

    There are 2-3 colored thermovarnishes. Some change tones within the same color scheme, others are radically repainted in contrasting colors. As a rule, the color is darker in the cold, but lighter in the warmth. This manicure is relevant at all times of the year, especially in the off-season. The cost of thermogel varies from 2 to 5 hundred rubles. The manufacturer plays a decisive role.

    Reviews from artists about Bluesky gel polish

    We decided to test the quality and wearing time of Bluesky gel polish using a small experiment. We asked three nail technicians to apply Bluesky gel polish of different series to the nails of their clients. The masters shared their impressions and photos of Bluesky gel polishes on clients’ nails. Our expert will give his recommendations and comment on the photo.

    Victoria, 30 years old

    I have been working as a manicurist for seven years. When I first saw Bluesky camouflage gel polish, it seemed runny to me. But he turned out to be very comfortable at work. Perfectly smoothes out roughness of the nail plate. My client wore this gel polish for 24 days without chipping or cracking. The only disadvantage of Bluesky camouflage polish is that the color on the nails differs from that stated by the manufacturer.

    Expert's comment: To avoid shade mismatches, be sure to look at the date of manufacture and storage conditions.

    Irina, 25 years old

    I have been working as a nail artist for several months. Both I and my clients are very pleased with Bluesky gel polishes. All series of varnishes are worn for at least 21 days. I'm having trouble applying the rub on my gel polish.

    Expert's comment: When working with rubbing, be sure to take a top coat without a sticky layer. And monitor the temperature of the coating. If it does not dry, the pigment will come out in flakes. If it cools down, the pigment will not adhere to the top. For ideal rubbing, the coating should be slightly warm.

    I really enjoyed working with Bluesky stained glass gel polish. The client stayed with him for 28 days. Clients often ask me what they can combine stained glass gel polishes with.

    Expert's comment: Ideally, it is better not to combine stained glass varnishes with matte ones. But you can experiment with applying stained glass varnish to one nail, and gel polish of an identical color of series A to the rest.

    Remember that every girl should have well-groomed hands. Be sure to choose the type of gel polish to suit your clothing style and age. Share your experience using Bluesky gel polish in the comments.

    What is thermal nail polish

    Thermovarnish is a nail polish that can change its color depending on the temperature of the environment or the surface on which it is applied.

    Thanks to this unique ability, thermovarnish allows you to create truly fantastic types of nail designs and brings to life the most original ideas of the master.

    Today, thermovarnishes are very popular in the cosmetic market. This is facilitated by the presence of a varied color palette, relative ease of use and, of course, an impressive color changing effect that will appeal to any girl.

    A particularly expressive color transition is obtained on long nails; here you can create a colored French manicure (this unusual effect is also called the ombre effect), since the nails at the base and at the tip have different temperatures.

    How to use

    In order to get the desired effect and protect yourself from unpleasant surprises, we advise you to listen to the recommendations of experts on applying thermoactive nail polish.

    1. First, cover the nails with a base coat and give it time to dry completely. It is best if you purchase products from the same brand, because in this case the guarantee of compatibility increases.
    2. Then apply the thermovarnish itself. Just like regular varnishes, this product should be applied in two layers. Paint your nails using quick strokes along, up and down. Wait until the first layer dries, and then cover your nails with another one, so that one stroke falls in the middle of the nail, and the other two are distributed along both edges of the nail plate.
    3. If you want to achieve a more lasting effect, you can apply a couple of additional layers of thermal varnish to the tip of the nail. Due to the fact that the thickness of the varnish at the tip will be greater, it will not gain temperature so quickly, which means that the result will please you for a longer time.
    4. In the process of painting your nails, you should leave a small indentation from the cuticle to the line of application of the product, this way you will not interfere with the natural breathing of the nail plate, which occurs precisely through this area.
    5. Quite a large part of thermovarnishes have a matte finish. To achieve a rich mirror shine, use a special top coat and fix it in an ice manicure lamp.

    Thermo shellac. Palette in the photo, design with gel polish


    A monochromatic nail design with shiny decor is gradually giving way to an elegant gradient manicure with transitions from one contrasting shade to another, tints, and 3D effects. If you prefer to wear gel polish on your nails, which is dried using a UV lamp, then be sure to pay attention to the new product from the bluesky line - shellac for feet with a thermal effect, which has a dense texture and rich pigmentation, and for uniform application of the coating Equipped with a convenient brush. Thermo gel polish, hardened in the ultraviolet rays of a lamp, has a unique effect: any temperature changes affect the color of the coating. For example, when exposed to warm air, shellac on nails becomes lighter, but in the cold it darkens and becomes more saturated. By choosing Bluesky products, you can create a fantastic ombre manicure with constantly changing gradient colors as the ambient temperature changes.

    The color of the gel polish coating on nails changes thanks to the heat-sensitive components included in shellac. If the thermo gel polish contains pearlescent particles, then the coating on your nails after polymerization in the lamp will turn into a radiant manicure with soft shimmer. Take a cup of hot tea with your fingers and the gradient shades on your nails will begin to lighten, and a glass of cold cocktail in your hands will turn your manicure into an ombre with dark, rich shades. The palette of thermal gel polishes is constantly updated with interesting new products. For example, you can make a spectacular manicure with a thermal coating on your nails, which, under the influence of low temperatures, will change from white to purple, orange to bright yellow, pistachio to chocolate, beige to purple, pink to blue, dark blue to burgundy. Shellac with a thermal effect will never be monochromatic, since the nail plate at the base of the nail is always warmer than in the area of ​​the free edge. The properties of such a decorative coating make it possible to create not only an ombre nail design, but also a French style, which is popular today, with a contrasting transition between the tip and the rest of the nail. A manicure with thermal gel polish looks most impressive on long nails, and for short nails it is advisable to choose shellac with several shades of the same color. ♦ VARIETIES ▪ Contrast. An extravagant option with a clear transition from one color to another. In this case, there can be two or more contrasting shades (an excellent option for a French jacket). Sharp combinations of cold color with warm color or dark with light, along with the replacement of some contrasting shades with others, can be compared to magic; ▪ Pastel shades. Thermo gel polish in light colors with a soft transition of delicate and light shades. The palette of Bluesky Shellac, TNL and other popular brands usually includes options with soft transitions from soft purple to pink, from pink to beige, from bronze to olive, from brick to vanilla, from pale yellow to pistachio; ▪ Rich tones. These are rich, saturated colors with smooth transitions, without sharp boundaries. The palette includes bright combinations of ultramarine, orange, fuchsia, and bright blue tones. ♦ HOW TO CORRECTLY APPLY THERMO GEL POLISH ON YOUR NAILS ► Tools and materials: · UV lamp for polymerization of gel polish layers; · A set of manicure tools (glass files, scissors, nippers); · Transparent base; · Pigmented thermo-shellac; · Finish coating; · Degreaser and primer; · Lint-free wipes; · Orange sticks; · Cleaner for removing the sticky layer. ► Step-by-step instructions: ❶ Prepare your nails for applying thermal shellac: make a bath for your nails with warm water, move the cuticle to the base of the nail and remove it with a suitable tool, trim the nail plates and give them the desired shape; ❷ If there are remnants of the old coating on your nails, remove them with nail polish remover.

    What it is

    This is a new varnish that can change its color under the influence of a certain temperature. Why is this happening? Heat-sensitive components are included in this varnish. Components can darken or lighten when exposed to low or high temperatures.

    Moreover, the color of the varnish can even change from white to blue. Another option: when it’s warm, the polish is pink, and when it’s cold, it’s blue. But this is just an exception. Basically, the color range lies in approximately the same range, for example, yellow and orange.

    There is no need to dry the coating under ultraviolet light or using special means. The varnish dries well in air. To check how the varnish works after painting, you can conduct an experiment. Once the coating is dry, you can place your hands under running cold water. You will see the color change. After you remove your hands from under the water, the color will change to its original color.

    On video - thermal nail polishes:

    If we compare the effect of coloring, it occupies an intermediate position between the effect of French manicure and amber. That is, it turns out to be some kind of stretching. You can see a blurry line that is located on the smile line. This is due to the fact that the free edge has a nail temperature lower than that at the base. This is why the polish looks best on long nails.

    You can understand how to apply gel polish on short nails if you read the contents of this article.

    If we talk about durability, it will be comparable to conventional coating. When applying, you can follow a number of rules that will help make your manicure decorative and safe.

    Nails must first be prepared for application. The cuticle needs to be trimmed and the plate polished. Then the nail is filed a little. The nail plate is treated using a degreasing agent. The degreasing agent can be special alcohol pads or nail polish removers containing acetone.

    To prevent the penetration of aggressive substances, the nail plate is covered with a protective base. As soon as the base has dried, you can immediately apply thermovarnish. The waiting time for the varnish to dry will be several minutes. Everything will depend on the brand. A second coat of varnish can be applied if the shade turns out to be dull.

    It is very important to apply both the first and second layers very thinly. The color will be saturated only in this case. After drying, the third layer of varnish is applied only to the very edge of the nail plate.

    As a result, you can achieve the desired effect. Also the picture will be clear. This third layer allows you to create an effect close to that of a French manicure. If the purpose of coloring is amber, then there is no need to apply the last layer. The protective base is applied to completely dry nails. This base will help make your manicure more resistant to various damages. The free edge must be sealed with a protective backing.

    Design options with chameleon varnish

    With thermovarnish you can come up with a lot of nail design options.

    • French manicure. To make such a manicure, you only need one thermal polish. If you have grown, well-groomed nails of the same length, you only need to apply a coating. The advantage of this design is that you don’t have to waste time creating a neat “smile line” - it will form itself due to the temperature difference between the free edge of the nail and the nail plate. The transition in this case will be smooth, a little blurry;
    • Gradient design. To perform a gradient manicure, apply the first layer with regular varnish, and the second with thermal varnish of a similar color.

    Visual thermal effects on nails

    Most often, large brands in the nail industry produce two-color thermal gel polishes. At the same time, color combinations can be very different and create a lot of design options. The colors of temperature gel polishes appear differently on the nails under different conditions.

    • If the temperature is consistently cold (outside in winter), then the thermal coating will be the same even, more saturated color with a slight gradient transition to a lighter shade closer to the nail plate. This effect occurs due to the fact that the nail bed of the nail is always warmer than the free edge.
    • If it’s hot and your hands are hot, then the shade of the thermal coating will be as light as possible.
    • More dramatic color transitions are observed if you try to warm up frozen fingers by breathing or holding a cup of hot chocolate in your hands. Then the thermal gel polish will change shade in bizarre patterns before your eyes.

    Peculiarities

    Thermo shellac

    It should be noted that thermal shellac stays well on the surface of the nails for 2-3 weeks, provided that all stages of shellac technology are followed. The fashion for using this manicure composition came to us from the USA and Europe. In these countries, girls have long and successfully used thermal gels to create a unique manicure. Interestingly, thermo-shellac colors show their abilities already at the application stage. One has only to pick up a mug of hot tea or cold compote, and the color of the manicure instantly changes.

    The main thing about the product

    Thermo shellac is an innovative product that combines gel and varnish at the same time. It helps ladies create an excellent manicure that is easy to apply and pleasantly pleasing with its richness for at least three weeks. This long-term effect is due to the unique composition of the product, which, in fact, ensures the resistance of the coating to any damage.

    Using thermal shellac, every girl will be delighted with her manicure for quite a long time, because the surface of the nails with it remains smooth and does not have chips. This product also has beneficial effects. It strengthens weakened nails and eliminates flaking. In addition to the previous advantages, shellac does not have an unpleasant odor and does not cause allergies, since it contains only proven and safe ingredients.

    Application rules

    Many girls do not know how to apply thermal shellac. If you managed to figure it out and understand what it is, then you won’t have to talk about application for long. In order for a manicure to delight you with its impeccability, it is necessary to process the nail plates, giving them the desired shape. Be sure to remove the cuticles and treat each nail with a nail file and buff. What it is? Buff is a soft file that slightly ruffles the surface of the nail plate. This effect is necessary for high-quality adhesion of the gel polish to the nail.

    Then all dust particles are removed from the surface and the nails are covered with a primer. This is a degreaser that will prepare the site for further processing. The next stage is applying the base to the surface and ends of the nails. After drying the base layer, you can begin decorative finishing.

    For a perfect manicure, Bluesky thermal shellac in the photo is recommended to be applied in two thin layers. Upon application of the first coat, Bluesky will immediately begin to exhibit its color changing abilities. The first layer should be thoroughly dried, and then proceed to applying the second. After drying the thermal shellac under a UV lamp, you can complete the procedure by treating your nails with a top composition. In order for the manicure to last as long as possible, carefully treat the entire surface of the nail, including the ends, with a finish. Dry for 30-90 seconds and remove the top, sticky layer. To immediately improve cuticle health, apply moisturizing oil.

    The video provides detailed instructions on how to properly apply thermal shellac.

    Disadvantages of the product

    1. The high cost of the procedure performed in the salon.
    2. With prolonged exposure to moisture, invisible microcracks may appear. In this case, there is a possibility of bacteria developing on the nail plates.

    However, such moments will not spoil the pleasure of using a product such as thermal shellac if you keep your hands clean and carry out the procedure yourself, which will allow you to save a lot.

    Manufacturer's choice

    Today, many brands offer high-quality manicure products, one of such manufacturers is Bluesky. Reviews of the brand's products claim that not all Chinese products are of low quality. To confirm this, customers show their nails coated with Bluesky thermal shellac. It turns out that this is a quality product at affordable prices.

    To summarize, we note that the modern selection of manicure products is so large that every woman is simply obliged to try the new products for herself

    When choosing the appropriate gel polish option, pay attention to thermal compositions. They allow you to create a flawless, beautiful gradient manicure that will change shade throughout the day.
