Nail polish, its types and characteristics
There are several types of coverage and each performs a specific function.
- Basis - is applied to the nails and its main task is to align the nail plate and visually eliminate defects and bumps.
- Decorative varnish - gives a shade and is used for various nail designs.
- Fixer - its use is associated with the need to protect the previous layer from damage due to mechanical and chemical effects. For example, detergents and cleaners, as well as microscopic scratches and cracks, without which no homework can do.
- Varnish for quick drying - this tool is usually used to speed up the drying process of the applied decorative varnish.
- Nail polish.
How to choose a decorative nail polish
As we have already said, decorative varnish is used to give the nail plate some shade or to create a pattern. However, do not think that using the base, you can paint your nails with absolutely any varnish. Frankly cheap means will certainly harm, and the foundation will only partially mitigate this adverse effect. If you can’t do without manicure, then purchase nail polishes of at least the middle price category. Surely flaking and brittle nails - this is not the limit of your dreams! Also pay attention to the size of the bottle. If you constantly change the shade, then there is no point in buying a large volume, it simply starts to stretch and will soon dry out. It is better to purchase several shades in a small package. Thus, you will have more choices and save money. Nail polishes can be bought both in specialized stores and in large supermarkets, markets and small retail outlets. Preference should still be given to either cosmetic stores with a proven track record or supermarkets. At the very least, they receive certified goods, and therefore, you are insured against buying defective products.
How to choose a shade
It all depends on where you are going to go with such a manicure. Some lovers of painting nails eventually gather a whole collection of varnishes. If you plan to go to a nightclub or a disco, then it is better to choose bright and eye-catching shades. 3D nail polish or holographic is suitable, as they create very interesting effects. For a business dinner or office, without a doubt, the best solution would be to choose either neutral shades or French manicure. This is a win-win version of well-groomed nails and a neat appearance of the hands, regardless of clothing style. For a
romantic date, you can choose more delicate tones, and for a friendly party or corporate event - bright and extravagant. It all depends on your mood, outfit and the atmosphere in which the event will take place!
