Common Defects in UV Gel Nail Polish (Part 2)

Common Defects in UV Gel Nail Polish (Part 2)

During the application of UV gel polish, shrinkage is another common defect. Shrinkage occurs when the gel polish contracts inward from the nail edge or nail surface after curing, exposing part of the natural nail and directly compromising the integrity and longevity of the manicure. Unlike wrinkling, shrinkage is more closely related to adhesion and the material’s inherent shrinkage properties. Understanding the causes of shrinkage can help technicians identify and prevent this issue during application.

Usage Differences Among Different Types of Gel Nail Polish (Part 3)

Usage Differences Among Different Types of Gel Nail Polish (Part 3)

The durability and long wear of gel polish are its key advantages; however, when it’s time to change colors or give your nails a break, removal becomes an unavoidable step. Different types of gel polish vary significantly in terms of removal difficulty and method. Standard color gels can be easily removed by soaking in nail polish remover, while dark shades and glitter gels require longer soaking due to the opacity of their pigments or the presence of particles. Peel-off gels, on the other hand, can be directly peeled off without any remover, whereas extended gels—because of their greater thickness and hardness—must first be filed down to reduce their bulk. This article will examine the differences in removal methods across various types of gel polish.

In addition to the standard three-piece set commonly used for everyday nail art, the market also offers several specialty gel polish products. Peel-off gels are designed for quick removal, cat-eye gels create a distinctive iridescent streak effect, and glitter gels deliver a dazzling visual experience. These three types of products differ significantly from regular color gels in terms of application: some streamline the process, others require additional techniques, and still others demand extra attention to achieving a smooth, even surface.

Within the gel polish product lineup, standard gel polish constitutes the basic three-piece set and is suitable for a wide range of everyday nail-art scenarios. In contrast, strengthening gel and extension gel are designed to address specific needs: the former is intended to reinforce thin, weak nails, while the latter is used to compensate for insufficient nail length. Although all three products belong to the gel polish family, they differ in terms of application procedures, key operational techniques, and removal methods.
