Gelish Nail Products: Soak-Off Gel, Dip & Polygel

Gelish Soak-Off Gel Polish: The Foundation of Perfect Manicures

What Makes Gelish Soak-Off Gel Polish Exceptional?

Gelish soak-off gel polish represents the gold standard in long-lasting nail color. This revolutionary system combines liquid gel polish applied like traditional lacquer with UV or LED curing technology to create an incredibly durable, high-gloss finish.

Key Benefits for Professional and Home Use

The soak-off gel polish system delivers remarkable advantages that make it indispensable for both professional salons and individual nail enthusiasts:

Extended Wear Performance: Experience up to 21 days of flawless, chip-free colour that maintains its vibrancy from application to removal. This exceptional longevity means fewer touch-ups and consistent beauty.

Mirror-Like Brilliance: The formula creates an unparalleled high-gloss finish that resists dulling, ensuring your nails look freshly done throughout the entire wear period.

Natural Nail Protection: The gel coating adds a protective layer that shields natural nails from daily wear and tear while promoting healthy growth underneath.

True-to-Bottle Colour: Gelish's advanced pigmentation technology ensures that what you see in the bottle is exactly what appears on your nails, with no colour distortion or fading.

Gentle Removal Process: Unlike traditional hard gels, Gelish soak-off gel polish removes easily with acetone, eliminating the need for excessive filing that can damage natural nails.

Application Excellence

Professional salons appreciate the smooth application and self-levelling properties that make creating perfect manicures efficient and reliable. Individual users find the system intuitive enough to master with practice, bringing salon-quality results home.
 

Gelish Dip Powders: Strength Meets Simplicity

Understanding the Dip Powder Revolution

Gelish dip powders offer an innovative alternative to traditional enhancement systems, providing exceptional strength without requiring UV or LED light for colour application. This system involves applying a base coat, dipping the nail into finely milled coloured powder, and sealing with activator and top coat.

Comprehensive Benefits of the Dip System

The dip powder system addresses multiple nail care needs simultaneously:

Exceptional Reinforcement: Creates a durable protective layer that significantly reduces breaking and splitting, making it ideal for clients with weak or brittle nails.

Lightweight Comfort: Despite providing substantial strength, the finished application feels remarkably light and natural on the nails.

Odour-Free Experience: Unlike traditional acrylic systems, Gelish dip powders are virtually odourless during application, creating a more pleasant environment for both technicians and clients.

Efficient Application: The streamlined process often proves faster than traditional gel applications, increasing salon productivity without sacrificing quality.

Versatile Finishing Options: While the colour application doesn't require curing, an optional LED-cured top coat can be added for maximum shine and extended durability.

Professional and Personal Applications

Professional salons value dip powders for their efficiency and consistent results, while individual nail enthusiasts appreciate the straightforward application process that doesn't require significant equipment investment.
 

Gelish PolyGel: The Ultimate Hybrid Innovation

Revolutionising Nail Enhancement Technology

Gelish PolyGel represents a breakthrough in nail enhancement technology, masterfully combining the strength of acrylics with the flexibility of hard gels. This revolutionary "squeeze tube" formula provides unprecedented control and versatility for creating stunning nail art and extensions.

Unmatched Benefits for Advanced Nail Art

PolyGel's unique properties make it the preferred choice for complex nail work:

Optimal Balance: Lighter than traditional acrylics yet stronger than hard gels, PolyGel creates natural-looking enhancements that feel comfortable and move naturally with the nail.

Superior Flexibility: The enhanced flexibility reduces the likelihood of cracking and chipping, ensuring longer-lasting enhancements that maintain their beauty.

Complete Odour Elimination: The formula is completely odourless, creating a more pleasant working environment and eliminating concerns about chemical exposure.

Unlimited Working Time: Unlike acrylics that begin setting immediately, PolyGel remains workable until cured under UV or LED light, allowing technicians to perfect every detail without rushing.

Smooth Application: The putty-like consistency provides excellent control, making it easier to sculpt precise shapes and create intricate designs without the mess associated with runny gels.

Creative Possibilities

PolyGel empowers nail artists to push creative boundaries, from subtle natural overlays to dramatic sculptured extensions and three-dimensional nail art. Both professional technicians and skilled enthusiasts find it invaluable for achieving their artistic visions.
