Gentle on nails Acrylic Poly Gel
Poly Gel is a hybrid product that combines the best properties of both acrylic and gel for nail building.
What is Poly Gel?
- Consistency and Application: Poly Gel has a thick, yet easily moldable consistency. It usually comes in a tube and is squeezed out as a paste. You shape and spread the product with a spatula or brush, which makes it easy to control.
- Curing: Poly Gel does not cure until exposed to UV or LED lamp, giving plenty of time to work and shape the nails without stress.
- Weight: Poly Gel is lighter than traditional acrylic, which gives a more comfortable feeling on the nails.
- Strength: Despite its light feel, Poly Gel is strong and durable, making it ideal for nail extension and strengthening.
Advantages of Poly Gel:
- Easy to shape: Poly Gel stays in place until it hardens, allowing you to shape and adjust without the product running.
- No strong smell: Unlike acrylic, which has a strong smell during application, Poly Gel is almost odorless.
- Flexible: Poly Gel is more flexible than acrylic, reducing the risk of cracking.
- Better for nail health: Poly Gel is generally gentler on the nails than acrylic, which can contribute to less damage to the natural nails.
Use:
1. Preparation: Start by preparing the nails by filing and buffing the surface. Then apply a base coat.
2. Application: Apply a small amount of Poly Gel to the nail using a spatula and shape it with a brush dipped in a solution that prevents the product from sticking.

4. Fine: After hardening, you can file the nail to the desired shape and grind the surface if necessary.
5. Final step: Apply top coat and harden again.
