Bluesky gel polish: features and color palette

The brand of the Chinese company Bluesky has been on the market for the nail industry for more than ten years. For such a respectable period, the manufacturer has produced many series of gel polishes and auxiliary tools for working with them. Products of the brand have won the trust and favor of many home manicure lovers and professional masters.

Bluesky complies with the strictest standards for product quality and storage. They take care of proper disinfection and work on modern specialized equipment. Shellac inscription on Bluesky products does not mean at all that the manufacturer launches counterfeit Shellac CND brand funds. This is nothing more than the name of the substance that is part of the gel varnishes - the resin contained in tropical plants. In addition to it, the following ingredients are present in Bluesky gel polishes.

• Film former - a component that promotes the formation of a solid layer on the nail under the influence of UF or LED rays. It is also a guarantor of the elasticity and strength of the nail bed and the protection of the coating from the aggressive influence of substances contained in household chemicals.
• Photo initiator - a necessary component for the polymerization of the gel when it is fixed in a UV or LED lamp. Due to its ability to absorb ultraviolet radiation, the coating becomes hard.
• Methacrylates - substances responsible for the density of the consistency of gel polish.
• Pigments - saturate the product with color.
• Bismuth chloroxide - a component used in pearlescent shades, necessary for their radiance.
• Silica - prevents the separation of gel polish and precipitation in the product, gives consistency uniformity.

Bluesky products are of high quality. Therefore, she was able to quickly gain consumer confidence and enter the global market among the sales leaders. Many nail service specialists prefer to work with the funds of this particular company. There are several good reasons for this.

• The unique formula of Bluesky gel polishes allows you to neglect the stage of grinding the surface of a natural nail. This preserves its health and reduces the traumatic effect on the plate during long-term wear of the coating. It is worth resorting to polishing only with hyperhidrosis of the nails, when the coating needs additional coupling.
• Low cost in comparison with similar products from other manufacturers.
• A large palette of colors and more than 1000 variations of shades and effects.
• The density of the consistency of the varnish, contributing to its easy application on the nail plate, excluding spreading.
• The presence of necessary related products for decorative manicure.

• The ability to purchase gel polishes in specialized stores and via the Internet, saving the budget and time to search for the right shade or means for processing nails.
• The composition is held on the nails for about 20 days.
• All products can be used at home.
• The product does not have a specific smell due to its composition, therefore it is considered safe for nails and overall health.
• Bottles with gel polishes are opaque, which allows their contents to be stored longer.

The disadvantages include the following points.

• In the process of long wear of the decorative gel coating on the nails, the effects of water and household chemicals contribute to the appearance of small cracks on the surface. They gradually accumulate particles of dust and dirt - the ideal environment for the growth of bacteria.
• Fluid texture. It is a minus only for beginners in nail design. With the advent of experience, this is no longer considered a disadvantage of Bluesky gel polish.

For high-quality manicure, it is important to purchase the original Bluesky gel polish. To do this, it is worth learning about its characteristic quality indicators. Basically, the products of this Chinese brand are distinguished by several basic characteristics:

• the presence of brand names on the bottle;
• content of a homogeneous structure;
• light and unobtrusive rubber smell;
• dense consistency, moderately thick, but if you drip onto a smooth surface, the drop slowly and evenly spreads, and does not spread over it.

Bluesky is a popular and recognizable brand, so they tend to fake it more often than others. To identify counterfeit, it is worth familiarizing yourself with the signs of original products at all levels: from packaging to internal contents.

• The bottle should be fully filled.
• Stickers on the bottle are applied evenly.
• Starting in 2014, Shellac is not labeled on all Bluesky pigmented products. She is replaced by Gel Polish.
• The shelf life of Chinese lacquer products for design is 36 months.

Modern Bluesky bottles are made in black. This is the brand difference of the brand from manufacturers of similar products.

• When inspecting the bottle, you need to pay attention to the quality of the inscription. Take a closer look at the clarity of the font. It is applied directly to the bottle at Bluesky. The letters are deep white and read well. If the text looks blurry, the letters are pale, the font is illegible - this is a poor-quality fake.
• The company text should contain information about the composition.
• An original barcode and a picture code must be present on the bottle cap, and a hologram is applied on the back. At the bottom there is an engraving with the brand logo or a distinctive sign with the batch number. Along the perimeter of the edge there are smooth notches.

You can avoid buying a poor-quality fake, focusing on the presence of:

• a sticker with a QR code on the bottle cap;
• Russian translation from the back of the bottle;
• bottom production dates;
• Bluesky lettering squeezed out on glass;
• certificate of quality.

Gel polish will look aesthetically pleasing and worn for a long time only if a high-quality coating has been used and all technologies have been followed. The original varnish from Bluesky perfectly covers the nail plate, has a rich color scheme and looks expensive at an affordable cost. Application technology is carried out in stages.

• Prepare your hands for manicure. Wash, sanitize. Sand the nails with a nail file, giving them the desired shape.
• Remove grease from the surface of the plates with a special tool. Use the primer after waiting for the product to absorb. It does not require drying in a lamp. Not everyone uses a primer, but it copes with its task, providing better adhesion between the base layer and the nail.
• Gently apply a thin layer of the base coat, dry it under the lamp. It is important to apply the product carefully, avoiding contact with the skin of the fingers and possible subsequent irritation.
• Apply the desired shade to the surface of the nail and dry it with a lamp. If the color is not dense enough and the hue is saturated, repeat the application and dry the layer again. Particularly carefully you need to paint over the upper part of the plate to prevent further delamination of the coating.

• Coat the dried varnish with a top with a non-stick structure and dry the nails in the lamp again. This layer will protect the color from fading in the future and protect the manicure from damage.
• If the design is supposed to decorate the manicure with sequins, it's time to rub it on the nails while the top remains hot enough. This can be done in different ways: someone prefers with a brush, and for someone it is more convenient to act with the fingertips. It is important to rub in evenly, with light movements, until the surface becomes uniformly shiny. It will not be possible to apply the rubbing on top top.
• Remove particles of the product along the edge of the nails using special sticks or a nail file.
• Again apply a layer of top, and after - a layer of rubbing. Thanks to this fixing maneuver, the manicure will last pristine for a long time.
• If the nails do not need additional decoration, then immediately after applying the top and drying it, you need to remove the sticky layer with a degreaser and a lint-free cloth.
• The last step is to apply a special cream or oil to soften the skin of the hands and cuticles.

Bluesky gel polishes can be stored for 3 years from the date of release. It is registered on a bottle by the manufacturer of products. But according to the masters, if you store the funds correctly, you can safely add a year to the expiration date. Moreover, it does not lose its properties, does not exfoliate and does not thicken. Proper storage of gel polish requires compliance with certain rules.

• After each use, keep the bottle tightly closed.Contact with air leads to delamination and volatilization of important components. In addition, dust particles can enter the vial.
• The gel should be stored away from direct sunlight and away from the lamp. It is best to keep gel polishes in a dark place.
• Temperature differences are unacceptable for gel formulations. The formation of condensate inside the bottle negatively affects the product, significantly reducing its shelf life.
• Periodically, you need to shake the bottles with varnishes, so that the product does not thicken and does not delaminate. This is important to prevent lumps in varnishes.
• Thickened varnish can be restored briefly with a solvent.
• Ideally, it is better to store varnishes in boxes or purchase a professional case for them.
• If you are not lucky and had a chance to buy a fake, even with proper storage, the quality of the manicure will be far from that guaranteed by the original product. If it was discovered that a counterfeit was purchased, you should try to return your money back or exchange the product for a similar product, but of proper quality.

They share their impressions of the main popular shades and fashion effects, talk about the intricacies of manicure with these tools.
