Nail polish is a type of lacquer used to colour fingernails and toenails. It is typically made from nitrocellulose which is dissolved in butyl acetate or ethyl acetate. It forms a shiny film as the acetate solvent evaporates.

It’s really down to personal preference. Gel nail polish is stronger and lasts longer (2-3 weeks) than traditional nail polish (1 week). Both can create a high-shine finish and both can be applied in salons or at home. Traditional nail polish dries in the air and can be removed at home using nail polish remover. Gel, on the other hand, needs to cure under a UV lamp and should be removed professionally in a salon to help preserve nail health.

A nail polish treatment includes nail shaping, cuticle care, and the application of a chosen nail polish colour. Options include regular (air-dry) polish for a classic finish, or gel polish cured under UV/LED light for a longer-lasting, chip-resistant result.

Consider your skin tone, occasion, and outfit. Nudes and pinks suit everyday wear; bold reds and deep tones are popular for events; pastels and neons work well in warmer months. Your nail technician can suggest shades that complement your colouring.
