So you've probably heard all about Shellac, what exactly about Gelish? Gelish too is a gel -polish produced by Hand and Nail Tranquility. Both Gelish and Shellac are applied like polish from polish bottles and are cured beneath an UV Light. Neither needs filing the surface before application and both are eliminated by soaking in acetone. Both Gelish and Shellac are Formaldehyde, toluene and DBP free therefore contain no nasty chemicals.
That's safest, Gelish or Shellac?
There is a typical field of thought since you do not buff the natural nail beforehand that Shellac is better, thus you are not damaging the natural nail. This is simply not right! Gelish merely suggests a mild buffing off the nail surface not filing, which does not harm your natural nail whatsoever as long as it's done properly! If something this is of benefit for the nail as it smoothes over the nail bottom, keeping it from peeling. Most UV gel items demand a minimum of filing / buffind as it's eliminated by chemical acetone. When utilized properly acetone is not going to damage or dry your nails or hands.
Best color range, Gelish or Shellac?
Gelish currently offers 112 gel polish shades while Shellac is offering 40. Gelish color range includes basic, glitter, matt, gloss and other unique impacts. Each color includes a numeric IDENTITY together with a descriptive name for example "Diva", "Go Girl", "Hot Rod Red" and "ShowStopping". The glitter polishes give effect to a brilliant deep glitter that's actually eye catching.
Both Gelish and Shellac manicures are capable have nail art added to the finish, there's a wide range of diamontes, jewels & transfers that can be applied to the nail to give it a distinctive complete.
Which lasts longer?
Gelish suggests a three week manicure, while Shellac promises a couple of weeks plus in their marketing. Nevertheless this is just a rough guide, UV gel items can continue different occasions for different individuals, additionally, it depends on how proficient the nail tech is that is utilizing them.
With these items, I don't think that it is just a matter of 1 being better than the other. At Present, Shellac is better known on account of CND's superior marketing. Nevertheless, I actually do consider Gelish is more permanent and better for people that are harder on their nails, the slightly longer last and the broader range of colours obtainable is the reason I choose to make use of the Gelish merchandise over Shellac.
