The differences between semi-permanent varnish and gel nails
As a nail professional, you must be able to advise your client. How to choose between a semi-permanent varnish and a gel nail? Your expert nail supplier Maryton gives you advice.
The semi-permanent varnish, an ideal service to beautify the nails quickly
Semi-permanent varnish is a varnish that comes in the form of a fluid gel. Once applied to the natural nail, it is dried under an LED or UV lamp. Several layers are put on the nails, after a preparation phase: the base, the color and the top coat. Thus, the semi-permanent varnish does not flake off and the result is shiny.
The first advantage of semi-permanent varnish is the exposure time. In about 30 minutes, the service is completed. On the other hand, the removal of semi-permanent varnish is easier and faster than the removal of artificial nails. On the downside, semi-permanent nail polish can wear off a little faster than gel nails. In addition, the possibilities of nail art remain limited.
Gel nails, for strong and creative nails
The gel makes it possible to shape false nails directly on the natural plate or on capsules. The gel is also used to lengthen the nails using a stencil to create a nail extension. The gel is also dried under a manicure lamp.
Unlike semi-permanent varnish, the application of gel false nails increases the surface of the plate. Thus, your client may have a longer nail length. On the other hand, artificial gel nails are more resistant and can have a protective effect on natural nails. Regarding the disadvantages, the duration of the service is longer than for a semi-permanent varnish application.
