Any woman dreams of always having an impeccable and well-groomed look. One of the important criteria for a beautiful image is a stylish, neat and durable manicure. Modern beauty salons represent an extensive selection of services, of course, for a considerable amount of money.
However, these days it will not be difficult to make an original manicure at home. The main material for its application is gel polish. It can be easily bought in specialized stores or ordered on the Internet. It is presented in 2 versions: a standard bottle with a brush and gel polish in a jar (there is no brush). The last version of the material has a number of features.
Color palette
In most cases, gel polish in banks is called paint - this is due to its wide color palette. Despite the fact that the composition of the paint is similar to the structure of gel polish, there are several nuances: the paint is used exclusively for design and is removed from the nails with a special solvent.
Employees of beauty salons like to work with gels in jars, since they are very convenient to mix and get the right color. Since the brush is not attached to this material, you must separately purchase this tool (it can be of various lengths and sizes). This will give you the opportunity to turn a manicure into a real masterpiece.
Using varnish in jars is just as easy as in bottles. The material does not make the nail plate heavier, fits perfectly and looks great.
Features
Gel Polish in banks has a number of distinctive characteristics, Among them are the following:
- huge selection of colors;
- the coating does not require a large-scale cut of the surface of the nail plate;
- there is the possibility by mixing colors to get the desired shade;
- during drying, you can make a correction to the picture;
- preservation of presentable appearance up to 20 calendar days.
The main advantage of gel polish is its liquid structure, which does not spread at all.
How to use gel polish in jars?
The process of applying this material is no different from applying standard gel varnishes in bottles. So, we proceed:
- we process the nail plates: we cut the cuticle, give shape and do not forget to degrease;
- using the buff, remove the top layer from the nails;
- cover with a protective layer (primer) and dry;
- apply the base and proceed to coating the nails with gel polish (any color to your taste);
- gently apply gel polish to the nail plate with a brush;
- we apply the coating until a saturated shade is obtained (3-4 times);
- after each layer, dry the nails with a UV lamp;
- then on each nail we apply a fixative with a thin layer and again send it for drying;
- Long-lasting and stylish manicure is ready.
Design options are very diverse. Your nails can be decorated with multi-colored stretch marks and tints, tinting transitions. Also in the work you can use rhinestones, sparkling sequins, powder and lace.
Where to get?
Gel polish in jars is widely available on the shelves and in online stores. In this case, it is best not to skimp and purchase a quality product. Note that gel varnish in banks is produced by various companies, in most cases - foreign ones. It is best to give preference to a well-known brand, which has already found confirmation of the quality of its products.
Storage conditions
Storage conditions for gel polishes are simple:
- after use, it is necessary to tightly close the lid of the can so that air does not enter it;
- You can not store jars of gel polish near a UV lamp - its rays negatively affect the material and lead to its destruction.
Common mistakes
Unfortunately, sometimes a manicure can turn out to be of poor quality. The reason for this is the incorrect operation of gel polishes. Therefore, when applying, pay attention to the following:
- make sure all layers are thin;
- Avoid getting varnish on the skin - it threatens with chips on the entire nail plate;
- remove the remains of gel paint with an orange peel;
- remove the sticky effect with a special liquid;
- in order to increase the wearing time of gel polish, it is necessary to apply the material to the end of the nail.
To summarize, it can be easily stated that gel varnishes in cans are almost no different from coatings in bottles. And the various brushes that you purchase yourself will help make your manicure colorful and unique.
