5 Tips Nail Newbies (and Mavens) Need To Know + Spoiler!!

Put your hand up if you've avoided gels, acrylics, or other nail treatments because of concerns you have about your nail health.  I'll join you!

Yes, I am a specialty nail treatment virgin because I've heard too many stories of weakened, flaking nails that look absolutely awful when the polish comes off. My nails aren't the strongest to begin with so I have always chosen simple manicures with familiar products.

However, as a busy mom and working professional, I don't get manicures as often as I'd like. I just don't have time to sit for 30-40 minutes under a nail dryer only to smudge my polish when pulling out my wallet to pay the bill!

I'd love to pamper myself a little more regularly (who wouldn't!), and I recently learned from the Shellac™ brand team that one reason some women experience problems with their specialty nail finishes is because the products are applied incorrectly or mixed with other brands that are not compatible with Shellac™. Newsflash: Shellac is a brand, not a technique, so if you're getting a Shellac™ manicure and your tech isn't using Shellac™ for base, colour, and top coats, guess what? It's not a Shellac™ manicure, girlfriend.

Shellac™ has developed a trio of informational videos that explain the Shellac manicure from application to safe removal. Want to know more?

Video #1:  The Quick-Dry Test


Video #2: 14-Day Wear


Video #3: Removal Results


SPOILER ALERT! We will be announcing a Product Review Club offer very soon featuring Shellac™! We are so excited to bring this opportunity to you, but you will need to do your homework. Please watch the videos mentioned above because we'll be asking you a question about them in our qualification survey. Are you ready to #TryShellac?

I would love to try this polish. I hate having to do my nails every week. Long lasting is so much better.

If it doesn't ruin my nails, I am IN! I would love a long lasting polish that doesn't thin my nails.

Wow, Shellac looks awesome!! I can't believe they hold up for 14 days and there's no damage. That's amazing to me because I have weak nails to begin with and have never tried any treatments like this before to avoid damage!

I need to try this! I love painting my nails but they never last as long as I'd like and as a busy student they chip and end up looking like a hot mess before my next manicure. This would be amazing to try!
