Today, impeccable manicure is an integral part of the image of a modern, successful woman. Well-groomed hands with neat nails make the image complete, so we use the services of masters of nail service. But the usual varnish coatings on the nails last a very short time: from three to seven days, which is not entirely uncomfortable with the modern rhythm of life. Therefore, today manicure with gel polish is gaining more and more popularity. One of the highest quality is Gelish gel polish. Reviews this tool receives extremely positive. This article is about this innovative product.
What is gel polish?
From the name itself it is clear - this is a mixture of varnish and gel. The gel is able to adhere tightly to the nail plate, so it is often used when building nails. However, during the procedure, your own nail undergoes significant processing: a thin layer is cut off, and this negatively affects its condition. That is why many women refuse to build nails.
Later, a more gentle procedure appeared in beauty salons - strengthening the nail plate with biogel. This tool has several advantages. In addition to firming properties, it prevents cracking of nails. It is also very important that under the biogel the nail plate can breathe, which means that harm to their own nails will be minimal. Such coatings are produced in various colors, so that they can be used as an independent tool, without the subsequent use of varnish.
Every woman is familiar with the usual varnish. Thanks to a wide selection of shades, our nails can look varied and beautiful. However, the disadvantages of such a coating are obvious: it takes a long time to dry the varnish after application, and such a manicure will not last long.
Gel polish combines the best properties of varnish and gel. Outwardly, there is no difference between a manicure with gel polish and ordinary varnish. However, in the first case, it will last much longer: at least three weeks. At the same time, its original appearance will be preserved. With the use of gel polish, native nails will become stronger. Also an indisputable advantage is the instant effect of the coating: there is no drying process itself.
