All about nail polish

For many women, beautiful manicure allows you to make the image complete. Modern industry provides a wide range of tools: varnishes of various colors, shades, textures, a huge number of design options. However, repainting nails every day is quite problematic. The desired variety will allow you to get thermal varnish.

Thermal nail polish appeared not very long ago. It began to be released in 2011. Due to its peculiarity, the tool got its name in changing color depending on temperature. The composition of the varnish introduced special substances that are sensitive to ambient temperature. As a result, the coating applied to the nails can change color if you just leave the room on the street in cool weather. The lower the temperature, the darker the varnish will be. Therefore, such a coating is particularly preferable in the autumn-winter period and in early spring, when each exit to the street will provide a change in the color of the manicure. In addition, the shade of varnish will vary at the tips of the nails and at their base.

The longer the nails, the lower the temperature will be at their tips, and the darker they will be, and on the nails you get a beautiful gradient effect.

Manufacturers offer a huge assortment of thermal varnishes. They can be glossy, matte, pearlescent. They may contain shimmer or matte blotches to create various effects. Broad is their color palette.However, when choosing a color, the product can create certain difficulties: the color that you see in a transparent bottle does not necessarily correspond to the color that you get when applied to the nails.

It turns out to be useless and chamomile, demonstrating the color palette of the product. Therefore, manufacturers put in the package an insert showing the range of shades of a particular product, and this insert needs to be paid attention to.

The color shades that appear when the temperature changes can be very different. Often, varnish changes its shade within the range of colors: from light blue to dark blue or purple, from pale yellow to bright orange, from pink to raspberry. But there are other options when the varnish can change colors to contrasting: from yellow to purple or chocolate, from white or red to black.

Like any remedy, thermal varnishes have their advantages and disadvantages. In some cases, they will have advantages over other types of nail coatings.

• First of all, this is the quick creation of an unusual manicure. In this case, you do not need to visit the salon or purchase special tools or a lamp, and all the expenses are the purchase of varnish.
• For its use, special skills will not be required. The liquid consistency provides an easy and even application.
• Means dry quickly.

• An extensive color palette allows you to design for a festive manicure, as well as choose an office option.

Unfortunately, an interesting product has some disadvantages.

• First of all, this concerns the choice of color when buying: it may turn out to be slightly different on the nails due to different temperature conditions. In addition, it is sometimes difficult to predict the intensity and color play of varnish.
• There is some problem with the purchase itself: despite the growing popularity, the product can not be found in all specialized stores.
• Pretty high, compared to conventional varnishes, the cost.
• Varnish may change color unevenly.
• After the start of use after 4-5 months, the product begins to lose its original properties and turns into a regular varnish.
• Any dried varnish can be revived with a special varnish dilution fluid. Thermal varnish can also be revived, but it will not be thermo, but a regular varnish.
• In rare cases, due to its special composition, the product may cause an allergic reaction.

Since the product itself is able to create an original effect, it is not necessary to use any special techniques to create a beautiful design. All you need to do is choose the right color gradient. And here you need to be guided by two factors: the situation for which you are doing manicure and the length of the nails. On long nails, bright shades will look good.

If the nails are short, it is preferable to opt for light pearl or glossy pastel colorsthat allow you to visually lengthen the nail plate. You can also use dark tones, but you need to apply them correctly: if the nail is wide, do not paint over its sides, leaving a gap of 1 mm to the side skin ridges.

Thermal varnish will help diversify the jacket. You will get something new and unique if you use the product for the tips of your nails. In this case, there will be no clear border - it will be slightly blurry.

An interesting effect can be obtained if you choose a regular varnish of the same shade with a thermal varnish and apply it as the first layer under a thermal varnish. And also attractive will be the decision to use the product for drawing drawings and patterns on ordinary varnish.

Using thermal varnishes is extremely easy and convenient. Creating a manicure with it is not much different from methods using other types of varnish, it is easy to do it yourself at home. First you need to give the nails with the help of nail scissors and a nail file the desired length and shape. To make the manicure look neat, remove the cuticle. It needs to be softened using a bath, and then cut off with a special tool: nippers. And you can also use a special tool to remove the cuticle. A bath in this case is not needed. Detailed instructions for using the product are usually provided on the package or in the insert.

Now you can start painting the nails. A layer of base product should be applied to the fat-free surface of the nail. It will help strengthen the nail plate, prevent its yellowing after removing the varnish, and also smooth out existing irregularities: natural nails are rarely ideal. In addition, on the base coat, colored varnish is distributed evenly and lasts longer. Thermal varnish is applied to a dried base layer and also allowed to dry. After it dries, you need to apply a second coat.

So that the manicure is persistent and for a long time pleases the hostess with its original appearance, without harming the nails, some expert advice should be followed.

• When applied to nails, the product dries faster than regular varnishes, so do not hesitate, you need to try to quickly and accurately make smears.
• So that you do not have to later clean the skin near the nails of accidentally traces of varnish, lubricate it with cream or petroleum jelly.
• Due to the liquid texture, it is not always possible to immediately obtain a uniform dense color. For this reason, thermal varnishes are recommended to be applied in two layers.
• No need to paint your nails with a very thick layer: the effect of varnish will weaken.
• If an additional layer of the product is applied to the tips of the nails, then the gradient will be more effective.
• To make the varnish more interesting, use it in cool seasons. In summer, the air temperature outdoors and indoors is usually the same, and the effect can not be seen.
• Reliable sellers should buy the product: cheap low-quality varnish from an unknown manufacturer can deceive expectations not only when choosing a color, but also, in general, not changing color.
• To prevent the nails from peeling off, file them dry only.
• The cuticle, on the contrary, cannot be removed dry: in a day you will see a large number of burrs and, possibly, inflamed areas.
• To keep the varnish longer, apply it on fat-free nails. This can be done using nail polish remover.
• To ensure breathing with the fingernail, do not apply the varnish close to the cuticle.
