After a time, the lacquer is peeled off and removed with an orange stick. At the same time, there is no yellow tint on the nails: they look natural.

Minuses

Experienced craftsmen note that Gel lacquers of the company should not be applied to the sick, thin and weakened nails. In this case, a decrease in coating resistance is observed. It begins to crack after a few days. For the effect to be persistent and lasting, you must first strengthen the nail plate or use a strong base and top.

Using gel polish at home means buying a special lamp that needs to be changed after about six months of use. If you try to do without the lamp, the effect will not be so persistent.

To minimize waste, you should not buy a branded, large (for two hands at the same time) or too powerful lamp. The optimum power rating is 36 watts: this is enough to not harm the skin of the hands and not to spoil the manicure. You can buy a LED-lamp, but with this purchase is more difficult: it does not dry every type of gel polish, although it is considered a professional device.

The consistency of different shades may vary. For example, one tone can perfectly lie on the surface of the nail, evenly distributed and not flowing to the cuticle. Another shade may require more attention in the work. Therefore, before buying the tone you like, it is better to see the reviews on the Internet.

How to use

In order for a manicure to be truly flawless and longer on nails, it is important to follow some rules of its application, as well as to take into account the nuances of gel polishes.

To perform a manicure, you must have:

  • a grinder (to prepare the nail plate for the base coat);
  • degreaser (to ensure maximum adhesion of the nail with the base);
  • base coat (an important point for leveling the tone and strong adhesion to the color gel polish);
  • color coating of any shade (optional);
  • top (to protect colored lacquer and give it a noble shine);
  • alcohol solution (to remove stickiness when working with sticky top after nail design);
  • soft napkins without lint (to correct the manicure at intermediate stages);
  • UV or LED lamp.

Manicure rules

The technology of manicure using gel polish consists of several stages: preparation of the nail, applying the base, color and top coat.

  • Preparation of the nail plate. You can make a manicure, remove the cuticle without soaking. Then you need to prepare the end of the nail: on how smooth and clean it is from dust, the uniformity of tone and durability of the coating depends. If an oil or cream was used when performing the manicure, the product should be removed and the nails should be dried for at least 10-15 minutes.
  • Keratin removal. With the help of the buff (polisher) you need to gently remove the glossy layer from the surface of the nail, not forgetting about the free edge. Movement should be light, so as not to disturb the structure of the nail. After processing, the surface of the nail plate looks matte.
  • For maximum adhesion to the coating, it must be degreased with a dehydrator (a special deep-acting fluid). If you do not remove the residual sawdust and sticky layer, gel polish will not be held for a long time. You can use a primer, especially if the nail plate is soft.
  • Basecoat application. To cover the surface of the nail base, the manufacturer recommends as thin as possible with a rubbing motion in the direction from the end to the base. Gel polish dries slower than simple coatings, you can calmly apply it, trying not to get on the cuticle and side rollers of the nail.

Each applied layer should be dried under an ultraviolet lamp for two minutes (using an LED lamp - no more than 10-20 seconds).

  • If, however, lacquer got on the skin, it is better to remove it before drying under the lamp: Late removal can lead to soon the appearance of chips and cracks. Everything has to be perfect at every stage. The resulting layer is needed to protect the nails from the pigments of color gel polish. It will be sticky, so touching it is categorically excluded: otherwise, the adhesion with the colored layer will not be reliable.
  • Color coating. When applying gel varnish layers should be as thin as possible. A thick layer will ruin the entire manicure, it will take longer to dry in the UV lamp, it may shrink, roll down in waves. In the end, the manicure will be spoiled. If it is necessary to make the tone more saturated, it is better to apply the agent in two or three layers, but necessarily thin. We must not forget that after each layer it must be dried in the lamp.
  • Top (finish) coating. It is applied in a more dense layer, depending on preferences it can be matte or glossy. The finishing layer in the UV lamp dries for 3-4 minutes, in the LED lamp it is about 1 minute. If a top with a sticky layer was used when fixing the manicure, after drying it is necessary to degrease it with an alcohol-containing solution. Usually the top coating with a sticky layer is applied in the case of nail design. If it is not there, the usual finish is quite suitable.

In addition to compliance with the rules, it is important to take into account the shelf life of the lacquer: a thick, old varnish will not give an impeccable result.
