A line of gel polishes called Rosalind is presented on Aliexpress. It has mostly positive customer reviews and is often used by professional nail service masters in beauty salons. To dry the coating, an ultraviolet or LED lamp is required. We will talk about what qualities a material has and how to apply it correctly, in this article.
Features
The Rosalind brand has a very wide range of products. Beautiful ladies like such series as Cat's Eye, Shimmer, Lilac, Matte, and many others. This is due to the fact that the material is perfectly applied, has a comfortable brush, dries quickly and looks very attractive. In addition, all gel polishes have an affordable price, which allows everyone to purchase them.
If for some reason you have to combine gel varnishes of this brand with materials from other manufacturers, this will not cause problems. However, it is better to clarify this point in advance, some may not be suitable. The bottle is available in a volume of 7 milliliters, which is quite a bit, but this is rather a plus, since the material does not have time to dry. It is impossible not to note the possibility of mixing tones, which gives the master a variety of new shades that meet the needs of even the most demanding fashionistas. The design of the bottles is diverse, however, this does not interfere. Each collection is made in the same style. Most often, the bottles are made of frosted black glass, they have a sticker with the composition of the material. Rosalind has all the necessary quality certificates and is absolutely safe for the consumer. The average price of 1 gel polish is about a dollar.
Among the shortcomings of the products, it can be noted that the varnish flows down from the brush, so opening the bottle can be problematic. In addition, the smell will seem unpleasant to many.
Base and top
Each company creating nail care products has in its lineup both a base and a top. Experts recommend applying the base coat very thinly, so beautiful ladies will not have pain when drying in a lamp. The base can be baked, as it incorporates photoinitiators. When they polymerize, heat is released. However, the base has advantages. It dries quite quickly, the time taken for this process takes from 30 seconds to 2 minutes, depending on the type of lamp.
After the master has completed a manicure, removed the natural shine from the nail plate, degreased it and applied the primer, the time comes to use the base coat. Experts advise applying it in two layers, the first rubbing into the nail, the second is already on top, so the surface will turn out more even. With proper application of the base, the nail will have an even, continuous flare.
As for the tops of the Rosalind brand, they are quite thick and have the ability to self-level. In addition, this coating protects the gel polish from chips and abrasion, with it you can do household chores without fear for manicure. Nevertheless, the application has its own characteristics.
When covering nails with Rosalind top, you should not rush. Due to its density, it will reach for the brush, so the work requires special accuracy. When the top is applied to the nail plate, the hand needs to be turned over for a few seconds, and then put into the lamp. No degreasing is required, but wait a couple of minutes for the coating to cool.
Stripping
As for the removal of coverage, there may also be some nuances. Some reviews clarify that gel polish is difficult to remove. The use of a primer may have an effect on this.
If you can’t remove the coating in the usual way, the masters recommend cutting it off. The base rests firmly on the nail, so removing it is not required, and it will not be so easy to do. A new gel polish will be applied directly on top. It is most convenient to cut off the coating with a ceramic mill, as other materials can cause severe discomfort to customers due to overheating. This scheme has another advantage - during it liquids containing acetone are not used, respectively, there will be no unpleasant odor.
About the series
A wide color palette and various series make Rosalind products popular both among craftsmen and their clients. Let us consider in more detail the main lines that are in special demand - diamond, Cat's eye, Faux fur, and thermal varnishes. The shimmery shades of the diamond series are appreciated by the fair sex for their stunning brilliance, especially relevant for holidays, parties and other events.

Gel Polish Metallic Series Cat's Eye have long been fond of fashionistas and are represented in the collections of many manufacturers. Rosalind is no exception, however, the palette of these colors is not particularly diverse, the shades are mostly calm. In this case, the application on the black color will be an excellent option, this will add effect and intensity. The orange material will stand out brightly in neon light.
Masters of nail service often use this application technique: after a strip is formed under the influence of a magnet, it moves into a spiral with a thin needle, resulting in a spectacular and unusual rose.
One of the new products that managed to fall in love with fashionistas around the world is the series "Faux fur". The coating looks quite original, which is of particular interest. In addition, it can be combined with materials from other series, this gives a special richness and unusual design. As for thermal varnishes, their color line is not so wide, however, the shades are very pleasant.If the nails are of sufficient length, the jacket turns out to be very beautiful, since it darkens at the tips. In the case of short nails, the tone may seem insufficiently saturated, but this option will become an original find in winter, since in a warm and cold gel polish will change its color.
