Canni gel polish is considered a worthy alternative to expensive brands. Despite the fact that it is produced in China, the goods are of high quality, confirmed by all necessary certificates.
Canni does not contain hazardous components, is approved for import into the European Union and offers consumers an attractive value for money. It is not surprising that such a coating is widely used not only for home manicure, but also in beauty salons.
Varieties and their characteristics
Canni gel polish is currently a well-established product on the market. In fact, this is a combination of varnish and gel, which is applied as a simple varnish, but requires drying under a special lamp. Among its advantages are easy application without the appearance of bubbles, the “wave effect” and surface irregularities, a neutral smell due to the high-quality composition without harmful impurities, and ease of use.
The main disadvantage of gel polish is the impossibility of effective use on weak nails. If the plate does not differ in health and has numerous recesses, then Canni will “stand” by force for three or four days. In general, if the manicure is done according to the instructions, then the coating should last more than fourteen days up to a month. Reducing this period is possible in cases of violation of the application technology, the use of expired products, as well as regular aggressive effects, for example, dishwashing detergents. In this case, the exfoliation of the varnish will begin in three days.
Commercially available gel polishes have varying densities.Some shades are very thick, conveniently covering the nail plate and looking good even if there is one layer available. They dry without problems and do not form bubbles. However, some varnishes are too liquid and require repeated application. Often in this situation, stripes appear, and the coating is uneven. In addition, such varnish begins to spread, which complicates the drying process.
The gel varnish palette is very extensive, and judging by the reviews, it consists of extremely attractive shades. Many companies supplying Canni also offer kits, which include a base, top and four color gel polish. However, there is always the opportunity to purchase a separately liked color, and choose a base and fixing coating from another quality brand. By the way, to determine the number of the shade you like for its further purchase, just look at the number, which is located behind the bottle in the lower right corner.
Externally, gel polish resembles Shellac varnishes, but with a larger brush made of natural materials. The volume of the bottle of conventional means is 7.3 milliliters, and the thermal one reaches 15 milliliters.
It is important to mention that not only monophonic gel polishes are on sale, but also with various effects, for example, metallic, mother-of-pearl, with sparkles and micro-sparkles, as well as glitter.
However, it is believed that it is monophonic coatings that manifest themselves better - they last longer and crack less. The Blossom Series, Thermo, Cat's Eye, Platinum Series and others stand out.
It is worth mentioning that, in addition to gel polishes, the company produces other tools necessary for a full-fledged manicure: basic, top-end, primers and gel paints for design. The lamp needed to work with Canni should have a power of 36 watts. The LED device in this case can also be used for manicure. The shelf life of the funds used is usually twenty-four months.
Color palette
Currently, more than two hundred colors of Canni gel polish are available in Russia, so we can conclude that the existing set is able to satisfy even the most demanding customers. On the official website, all tones of the palette are presented by numbers, which greatly simplifies the procedure for working with this brand. True, it is important to remember that two layers of varnish are necessarily used for samples, and in real life the shades may vary slightly.
The main palette contains both bright juicy and calm pastel shades. from almost transparent to coated with shimmering glitter. For example, a calm purplish-gray shade of 049 and sky shade of 251 are suitable for office manicures, and a “delicious” orange 091 will fit perfectly into the dress code of the holiday event.
The noble dark green 134 is suitable for dark-haired handsome statues, and the delicate 055 cream-brulee color is suitable for very young girls.
The Cat's Eye series consists of bright varnishes mixed with metal particles.forming fantasy patterns under the influence of a magnet. All presented shades from beige to green look very unusual and spectacular, especially with a black base. Thermal gel polishes are available in thirty different shades. When the temperature changes, they themselves change color, for example, from dark red to black, from yellow to “sunset color” and from pink to noble gray. In frost, darker shades usually appear, and with increasing degrees they brighten. Some thermal varnishes create only a slight change in color, while others are a combination of contrasts.
Application Features
To create a high-quality and long-lasting nail coating, it is recommended that you follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer step by step. First, nail plates are properly prepared. It is necessary to remove the cuticle, go with a nail file to create a beautiful shape and polish the surface to remove the remains of the glossy layer.If the surface began to look dull, then the fingernail is degreased with a dehydrator and dried. The next step is to use the primer of the Canni brand, which will contribute to better contact of the nail and varnish. When it dries, the base is applied to the plate with light rubbing movements from the end to the base of the plate.
This layer should have a minimum thickness to prevent further peeling of the product. Do not rush, as the base dries out rather slowly. It is better to do everything as accurately as possible, without going into the cuticle and lateral parts. Although the manufacturer himself recommends the base of the Canni brand, numerous reviews advise using a better tool.
The base is dried under the lamp. If, during the application of the base, the varnish was on the skin, then remove the surplus before you close it. In the case of ultraviolet, the drying time will be two minutes, and in the case of LED lamps - only thirty seconds.
The selected gel polish is also applied in a thin layer to "seal" the end part of the surface. This layer is dried as much as the base. In the case where there is a desire to get a darker shade, the color can be applied twice, but with the same thin coatings. Finally, with the final step, the nail is covered with a top coating, which is dried for three minutes in the case of ultraviolet light and fifty seconds in the case of LED-device. In the event of a sticky layer, it is removed with a special alcohol-containing liquid, and the cuticle is lubricated with oil.
Reviews of consumers and masters
In general, Canni gel polish has extremely positive reviews from both professionals and amateurs. It is believed that it can even replace the popular Shellak, while having a much lower price. However, there is still a recommendation to pre-study reviews on the Internet regarding different colors of the palette. Surprisingly, shades can behave differently: some lie flat and smooth, while others spread out and form strips. Typically, this “sin” watery colors, which also have to be applied in three layers. Many users also note that Canni behaves differently on different nails.
According to consumers, Canni can be removed very simply using regular nail polish remover. No file cutting is necessary, it is enough to soak cotton wool with liquid, apply it to the nail plate and wrap it in foil for a quarter of an hour. After the specified time, the coating will peel off, and it only remains to be removed with a wooden stick. All reviews mention a rich palette of gel polishes and their low price for a fairly large volume of bottle. At the same time, few people advise choosing the top and the base of the same company; rather, most agree that they should be purchased from more expensive companies.
Some users note that Canni varnishes are worthy competitors of their more expensive relatives, despite the fact that they are made in China. They have a successful texture, providing an easy process of applying manicure. On average, coverage lasts about three weeks, which is a pretty high rate. If during the period of "socks" to actively engage in household work and be exposed to household appliances, the period is reduced to fourteen days. The availability of gel polish is determined by the fact that many consumers have an impressive Canni collection.
Masters, by the way, mention that gel varnishes work best with the base of the Kodi brand, which is rubber. It adheres well to Canni and extends its life. However, if there is still a desire to work with the “native” base, then it must be applied with a very thin layer, with “rubbing” movements and by painting the lacquered square with a special brush. The top coating of the Canni brand is also not very popular among specialists, since it often peels off and breaks off. It can only be applied in a very thin layer.
