Advantages Of Nail Gel Polishes
The main advantages of SNS gel polish manicures include:
- Long-lasting wear: unlike ordinary nail polish, this material is not erased at the ends of the nails and does not lose its glossy shine;
- Protection of plates from mechanical impact and their strengthening;
- Safe use – the composition of the nail gel polishes does not include formaldehyde and other harmful components; and
- The ability to design with different effects and techniques – ideal for every confident woman.
Coating Features
Nail gel polishes are a modern type of coating that provides strength to the nails while retaining their naturalness. The nail plates covered with this material look neat, do not break, and do not layer. Manicures using gel nail polishes are an excellent alternative to nail extensions since gel polish can be worn for a long time without harm to the natural plates. In addition, the gel coating opens up huge opportunities for the realization of any design idea.
Fashionable Shades
Gel polish coating is very popular with many girls because it is presented in a chic choice of colors and allows the creation of various design options. It is necessary to use shades not only in accordance with the details of your outfit but also in taking into account current nail fashion trends.
For cold seasons, a manicure of dark tones is suitable. In the new summer season, saturated green colors will be on-trend, as well as crimson, pink, yellow, and light blue. For autumn-winter, it is worth using a palette that is associated with autumn landscapes and New Year holidays. Red and yellow shades are also perfect. Or why not spice things up and use some metallic paints?
Techniques
With gel manicures it is possible to combine many techniques and designs. Here are several current trends that look both cool and attractive for your manicure.
