Nail design with gel polish

Flaws

• high cost of truly high-quality cosmetics;
• gel polishes create a dense film, due to which the nails lose their own protective coating and do not “breathe” at all ;
• not suitable for nails with a weak and thin structure - the manicure lasts three to six days;
• A manicure done with gel polish is difficult to remove and takes quite a long time;
• Coating with gel polish requires full compliance with the rules , otherwise the varnish may “peel off” on the same day.

What are we dealing with?

Gel polish is applied to natural nails, having previously prepared them. It stays on nails for up to two weeks. Some manufacturers claim a period of up to four, but this is with the right approach and care, which we’ll talk about later.

The product is sold in the usual bottles and looks similar to regular varnish, but only more viscous. It is applied in the same way, using a brush. But drying it requires exposure to ultraviolet rays. This is one of the difficulties when working with gel polish at home. You will have to purchase a UV lamp.

This is interesting

The acquaintance of fans of the perfect manicure with gel polishes began with the products of the American company that released Shellac. So, later many began to call gel polishes from other manufacturers. Although Shellac is the name of a specific product. It has a unique composition. It has no analogues. Its application does not require pre-coating with a primer.

Tips from the professionals

1. It is necessary to use high-quality varnishes from trusted and well-known manufacturers.
2. To prevent your manicure from becoming covered in bubbles, it is important to apply the gel polish in thin layers.
3. To prevent the gel polish from peeling off, when applying it, you must step back from the cuticle by one millimeter .
4. If you are using white gel polish, keep it under the lamp for one and a half minutes, not two - this way you will avoid a yellowing tint.
5. To get the perfect, truly desired manicure, it is better to apply several thin layers of gel polish than one thick one.
6. If you want to make a design on your nail, apply it to the top coat before drying.
7. Attach rhinestones or stones to the nail immediately after applying the colored layer of gel polish, then be sure to dry .

Before you start applying gel polish, you need to get your nails in order - they should be in perfect condition. To get a flawless manicure that will give others a good opinion of you, it is important to take seriously the choice of nail shape and careful removal of cuticles and hangnails. Otherwise, your efforts may turn against you, since the manicure will look sloppy and sloppy.
