Gelish Gelish appeared on the world market about 10 years ago and quickly gained popularity among the fair sex. It is released by Harmony. He appeared in Russia a little later, however, this did not prevent domestic fashionistas from immediately realizing that such a varnish would help to create the perfect manicure, which is a very important detail of the female image.
Advantages and disadvantages
When choosing a nail care product, you need to figure out what pros and cons they have. As for Gelish products, it has a number of advantages that cannot be said about.
The palette of shades includes more than 100 colors. These are classic tones and trendy novelties. The range is constantly updated. Gel Polish is created using modern technology and is absolutely safe.
Moreover, it is able to have a positive effect on the nails, which is an excellent option for the fragility of the nail plate. However, it does not become too thick from a large amount of material, since the layers are thin and neat.
Gelish Gel Polish has no difficulties in application - it can be applied in the same way as regular varnish, after which the nails just need to be dried under the lamp. The topcoat allows the gel to stay for a long time, and also protects it from external negative effects. Glitter of nails does not grow dull when doing homework.
As for the extended nails, the material ideally lays down and lasts up to 4 weeks. However, in the case of natural nails, a manicure will be required a little more often. Experts note that when using similar products, this period is no more than two weeks.
Coatings are hypoallergenic, which becomes an undoubted advantage for many craftsmen and their clients. Irritation and itching are also not observed.When removing it, it is enough to use a special solution, which allows you not to injure the nail plate by cutting.
As for the disadvantages, such a varnish is difficult to remove, while the surface of the nail plate deteriorates.
However, such a drawback can be easily corrected if, after removing the varnish, a repair coating is used.
