Should you shake the nail polish before using it? How to use the nail polish?

I see some nail artists need to shake the nail polish before using it. Is this a habit or does nail polish need to be shaken before use? What are the steps to use nail polish?

It's not nail polish. Only nail polish needs to be shaken. Good nail polish doesn't need to be shaken.

Nail glue, also known as nail polish, has been widely used in the nail industry in recent years. Compared with general nail polish, nail polish itself has its own characteristics, such as biochemical nail polish, which is environmentally friendly, non-toxic, healthy and safe. In addition, it has the common advantages of both glue and nail polish, with rich and clear color, easy application, and longer-lasting gloss. Therefore, nail polish has gradually replaced nail polish.

1. First, use tools such as cuticle pushers, cuticle scissors, and cuticle forks to remove dead skin, and then use a sponge or tofu block to polish and trim the nail shape. When polishing the nail surface, just polish until the gloss is no longer visible on the surface of the nail.

2. Use clean water to clean the grease and dust on the nails.

3. Apply a thin layer of removable primer and use UV light for 2 minutes (LED light only takes 1 minute), and make sure to do the edge work.

4. Scrub the floating glue on the primer to avoid glue flow and shrinkage. However, it should be noted that some primers on the market do not need to be scrubbed, and scrubbing may cause problems. Therefore, before using the primer, you must first understand the properties of the primer.

5. Apply a thin layer of colored nail polish and use a UV lamp for 2 minutes (LED lamp only takes 30 seconds), and make sure to wrap the edges.

6. Apply a second thin layer of colored nail polish and use a UV lamp for 2 minutes (LED lamp only takes 30 seconds). The edge must be well wrapped.

7. Apply a removable seal layer and use UV light for 4 minutes (LED light only takes 3 minutes). The edge wrapping must be done well.

8. Apply the second removable seal layer and use UV light for 4 minutes (LED light only takes 3 minutes). The edge wrapping must be done well.

When applying the sealing layer, it should be noted that if the sealing layer is a scrub sealing layer, the surface of the nail must be scrubbed with clean water, otherwise the expected holding time cannot be achieved. Conversely, if it is a wash-free sealing layer, it cannot be scrubbed.

In addition, if you use white nail polish as the main color of this manicure, please do not use a wash-free sealant, as this will cause yellowing. You should use a wipe-off sealant instead.

Nail polish will dry naturally, but it is difficult. It is best to use a baking lamp to make it look good. Waiting for it to dry naturally will make you impatient, and nail polish that has dried naturally does not look good.

No, it is nail polish that can cause damage to nails. Nail polish is also called phototherapy glue, Barbie glue, QQ glue, etc. in the market. Its main components are some pigments and natural resins. This material will solidify under ultraviolet rays. The biggest difference from nail polish is that nail polish will evaporate. Therefore, there will be no harmful gases from nail polish that we will inhale. Nail polish will form a plastic-like film. The permeability is worse than nail polish, so it will not corrode our nails. At the same time, the glossiness and wear resistance of nail polish are better than nail polish, and it will solidify immediately when it encounters light. Therefore, nail polish is generally stored in a closed state. So when we do manicures now, we usually need to expose it to light, so that our nail polish can dry quickly. There is no harm to our nails.
