Recommendations for choosing
Buying a set of manicure, you need to follow certain recommendations and advice. After all, for beginner neil masters it is difficult to make the right choice.
By purchasing the starting set, it is necessary to pay special attention to the lamp, since the result of this device will depend on the result of the work done, whether its capacity will be enough to dry all the layers of gel varnish, as well as other means.
There are three variants of lamps for drying gel coating.
- Led. - It is distinguished by the speed of drying the coating, but not all materials breathe well.
- UV lamp - characterized by a longer time, which will be required to dry the applied layer of gel lacquer. But they can dry equally well all the materials used in the process of creating a manicure.
- Hybrid - Often used in professional beauty salons. A similar device imagined positive features of LED and UV lamp. They are rarely found in the basic set for manicure. If the hybrid lamp is still included in the base bundle, then such a set will cost much more than the same option, but with a simpler model of the lamp for the drying of the nails.
Choosing a set to create a manicure, be sure to note that the base, top and preparation for erasing the sticky layer are included in its package, since these are fundamental elements. In the absence of one of the components, a successful manicure will not work.
For beginner neil masters, it is recommended to purchase a basic and top cover from one manufacturer. This will ensure excellent sticking to the nail plate and minimizes the occurrence of risk that some components will not be able to interact with each other, and their rejection will be observed. Of course, many manufacturers produce funds that can be combined with other brands, but at first it is better not to risk.
By purchasing a means for removing gel varnish, study its composition. It is important to choose the most gentle-skinned option.
Since the state of your marigolds will depend on this cosmetic drug when you remove the gel coating.
Despite the fact that the primer is not always included in the package of basic sets, take care of its acquisition, unless, of course, you want the manicure to hold out as long as possible and "not tear" before.
By purchasing directly gel varnish, pay attention to its consistency. It should not be highlighted, but this remedy should not be spread over the surface of the nail plate. The brush must be characterized by convenience. See that her form does not resemble an oval, and was a bit cut down at the bottom. The optimal volume of one bottle with gel varnish is 7.3 milliliters. This quantity is enough for long.
Many Neil Masters prefer to acquire a nail mill instead of the familiar toilet, since this device significantly speeds up the decorative coating process from the nail plate.
