What is gel polish?

The advantages of gel polish

• Intense shade and gloss (long-lasting original effect);
• Withstands a variety of stresses (contact with water);
• The resistance of the gel lacquer remains flawless for up to 4 weeks;
• Thanks to the optimum polymerisation rate, the gel polish cures quickly on the nails, literally within seconds of being removed from the lamp;
• A well-groomed appearance will give your nails a natural look;
• When using gel nail polish, the nail plate is not subjected to additional modelling or weighting, which strengthens its structure. In addition, brittle nails become noticeably stronger and begin to grow better;
• Optimal price (the cost is quite in line with the effect you get); 

Disadvantages of gel nail polish

• Relatively expensive;
• In order for the application to go well, sufficient time and attention must be given to each finger. On average, a complete manicure can take around two hours to apply, as each finger must be thoroughly lamp-dried several times. This will achieve the best results and prolong the durability of the coating;
• If the nail plate is thin, an unpleasant burning sensation may occur on the nails while drying the gel in the UV lamp. This is due to the fact that the thin plate does not have sufficient protection against the UV rays that the lamp generates. As a result, your nails may become more sensitive to heat and sore during drying.
  To avoid this unpleasant sensation, you can use special UV protection for your nails or use a lamp with a lower wattage. It's also important to watch the time you spend in the lamp to avoid overheating your nails and causing discomfort;
• The procedure for removing the coating is quite time-consuming and requires some skill and effort;

Gel polish is a popular type of nail polish that is known for its durability and long-lasting finish. It is a hybrid product that combines the best elements of both traditional nail polish and gel manicure. Gel polish is perfect for those who want a low-maintenance manicure that lasts for weeks without chipping or fading.

Gel polish is applied in multiple layers that are cured by LED or UV light. The curing process makes the polish harden and adhere to the nail surface. This unique formula is what makes gel polish so long-lasting and durable. Unlike traditional nail polish, gel polish does not dry out in the bottle and can stay fresh for months.

The application process of gel polish is quite simple. Firstly, the nail surface is cleaned and prepared to ensure proper adhesion to the natural nail. Next, a base coat is applied to the nails, followed by two or three coats of the color of your choice. Each layer is cured under an LED or UV light to ensure that the polish sets and adheres properly. Once the color is applied, a topcoat is added to seal in the color and create a glossy finish.

One of the major benefits of gel polish is that it can last up to three weeks without chipping or fading. This means that you can enjoy a manicure for a longer period of time without worrying about upkeep. Gel polish is also available in a wide range of colors and finishes, making it suitable for all preferences and occasions.

However, it is important to remember that gel polish requires extra care during the removal process. The acetone used to remove gel polish can be harsh on the nails and cuticles, so it is important to ensure that the nails are not damaged during this process. To avoid damage, it is recommended that you have your gel polish removed by a professional at a nail salon.

In conclusion, gel polish is a great option for those who want a long-lasting, low-maintenance manicure. Its unique formula and application process make it superior to traditional nail polish, and its wide range of colors means that everyone can find a shade they love. Just make sure to take extra care during the removal process for healthy nails in the long run.
