8 - misses due to which gel polish can cause nails

Gel polish is very popular in the nail industry. With a large number of advantages, all girls resort to it. Of course, it is persistent, it does not require drying, it will not smudge, and your nails will be perfect for at least 2 weeks. Gel polish can even be a good «care» for your nails. Due to the fact that it completely covers the nail plates and tightly «holds» to their top layer, it prevents the nails from crumbling and exfoliating. And that's cool. But there are some nuances that need to be taken into account. To be more precise, there are some «mistakes» that are allowed when applying gel polish, and then the nails will definitely not be beautiful and well-groomed. We wrote them, you read them, do not allow them, and then your nails will be just perfect. 

Many people take foil, a common nail polish remover, to remove gel polish, moisten a cut cotton pad, apply it to a nail, wrap it in foil and wait 20 minutes, because the process supposedly looks the same in the salon. Therefore, what do we get? In places swollen, and in places unchanged gel polish. Then the girls take a stick or file and scrape off the nail polish. The nail plates are uneven, rough, cracked in places, all jagged. Even if polished, nails will flake and break.

IMPORTANT: It is best to remove gel polish in the salon. If you want to remove the coating yourself, buy a special gel polish remover and use it according to the instructions. And never use a metal file to scrape off the remaining varnish! 

Can an overdue thing be useful in any way? Of course not! And gel polish is no exception. Before starting the coating process, make sure the varnish is on a shelf with a tightly closed lid and has a suitable shelf life. Often in salons, varnishes remain ajar for weeks or are used after the period specified by the manufacturer. Such funds will not hold well, and can have a negative effect on the nails. 

IMPORTANT: Always use gel polish before the expiration date and store it in the correct conditions.

Of course you do! For some reason, many people forget that the cuticle is no less in need of gentle care. There is a myth that cuticle oil destroys gel polish, and many girls refuse to care for the skin around their nails. What's really going on? Gel polish dries nails, and, accordingly, the cuticle dries. Without proper care, it cracks, begins to grow in uneven pieces and spoils the appearance of the nails. 

IMPORTANT: Be sure to apply cuticle oil daily, for gel polish this is definitely not a threat!

Yes, it happens. Without waiting for a signal, the girl pulls her hand out of the lamp, because the phone rang or a message came. Even a second matters: if you want the gel coat to last as long as it should, and not ruin the nail, then it is critical to completely dry each layer. 

IMPORTANT: Only remove your hand from the lamp after the signal.

Even shampoo, balm, oil and hair mask, we always try to buy the same brand. Then the effect will be much better. So it is in the case of gel polish. Who knows how a lamp-soldered base from one brand and a colored coating from another will behave. 

IMPORTANT: Always make sure that the master has prepared the same brand of funds for you.

If your base for gel polish has lined up. The main reason for this is not complete removal of the old coating. It is necessary to carefully file off all layers of the previous design with a nail file or a fraser, so that the layer of the new base for gel polish fits perfectly evenly on the nail.

IMPORTANT: Always completely remove the old coating, do not leave a trace. Otherwise, spoil the new coating and all the work will go to waste.

There is such a bad habit of cutting off the peeled off gel polish with a file and thereby causing great harm to the nails.

IMPORTANT: Do not file off partially torn off gel polish with a file. In this case, you also run the risk of cutting off the top layer of the nail and ruining it.

The coating cracks and breaks off in small pieces. This situation occurs if it is not enough to clean the nail from dust (sawdust), dirt and sebum.

IMPORTANT: Always clean your nails of dust, make sure everything is clean and only then proceed to the next step.
