Many of you love the look and longevity of a gel manicure, but not everyone loves what repeated gel use can do to the natural nail over time 😢.
Traditional gel systems can sometimes leave nails feeling thinner, drier or more sensitive. This isn’t always the polish alone, it can be a combination of factors such as:
🧪 Stronger chemical formulations
🪚Over-filing during preparation
⛏️The soaking and scraping often needed for removal
Over time, these steps can take their toll on nail health, especially if nails are already delicate ❤️🩹.
That’s why I choose to use Green Flash by Manucurist in my salon.
It’s a much kinder gel system, formulated with a higher proportion of plant-based ingredients and fewer harsh chemicals than many traditional gels, helping to protect the condition of the natural nail, but still giving that glossy, chip-resistant finish we all love 💚⚡️.
And with the new Xtrem Top Coat, the durability and shine now rival a traditional gel manicure, without the same level of stress on the nail plate 😍.
If you’ve ever taken a break from gels because your nails needed some TLC, this could be the perfect alternative: beautiful colour, impressive wear, and a more nail-friendly approach.
Message me for more information, if you’d like advice on improving the condition of your nails 💅.
