The Nai l Fi le Spring 2011 TRIED AND TESTED - Gel Polishes Show me the cure!
There’s no denying that Gel Polishes have taken the nail industry by storm, so for this issue of The Nail File we tried to find out what all the fuss was about.
Infinity by Nubar Gelicure
What they say: In 24 innovative colours the Gelicure range provides something new for those with natural nails as well as adding a touch of colour to enhancements.
With a quick curing time of just two minutes, your clients can leave the salon with a professional long lasting manicure without the worry of smudges or chipping.
This exciting new product will help pave the way for more people to have natural nail treatments, and find the joy in having a little luxury.
What we say:Although there were slightly more steps involved with the Nubar System, I also found this system extremely to
use.After the initial nail preparation to remove the shine from nails a coat of nail prep was applied, followed shortly by nail prime. Once this had fully dried it was time to apply and cure the gel base coat followed by the Gelicure colour. I was extremely impressed with the consistency of this polish as it was as thin as my regular polish and yet still gave great coverage. Once this had fully cured the Soak Off Sealer was used to lock in the colour and seal the edges.

NSI Polish Pro
What they say: Polish Pro is a revolutionary light-cured formula that lasts an unbelievable two weeks without chipping, smudging or cracking. Polish Pro is the next generation of nail polish that can be dried in minutes under a UV or LED lamp and can soak off in just 10 minutes.
What we say: Polish Pro was easy to apply following a simple three step system of base coat, colour and topcoat. Despite the company’s claim, I was still worried that my nails would chip or smudge the way normal polish does, however I’m amazed to see that the gel polish is still in place even after spending the day doing the garden and cleaning the house.
