Procedure

Introduction: Gel polish is a popular type of nail polish that provides a long-lasting and shiny finish. Gel nail polish
is a type of nail polish that is cured (hardened) under a UV or LED lamp. It has become popular for its long-lasting
and chip-resistant properties, making it a preferred choice for many individuals who want a durable and shiny
manicure.

Characteristics of Gel Nail Polish:
1 Longevity: Gel polishes generally last longer than traditional nail polishes, often lasting two weeks or more
without chipping.

2 Shine: Gel nail polish provides high shine, giving a shiny and polished look to the nails.
3 Drying Time: Gel polish dries quickly and hardens under a UV or LED lamp, reducing the risk of stains or
streaks after application.

4 Durability: Cured gel is more resilient to everyday activities, making it less prone to cracking and chipping
than regular polish.
