Polish vs Shellac
If you follow nail trends, you must have heard of Shellac – a new system from Creative Nail Design (CND). The Shellac manicure is becoming tremendously popular due to its long-lasting shine and chip-free results. Normally lasting about 14 days but can last longer. Also, compared to acrylics or gels, Shellac can be removed without filing – which means it’s healthier for your natural nails.
The system offered to professionals includes a base coat, top coat and 12 polish colors that cure in a UV lamp. Which is much more durable than regular polish.![UV lamp](http://thenailteacher.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/UV-lamp-300x283.jpg)
I never get manicures, I mainly do them myself. I went to try out the Shellac to see if it would be worth purchasing and applying myself. A Shellac manicure costs between $25-$40, depending on the salon. Yet, let me for a moment expound on the joys of being pampered at a salon, which cannot be duplicated at home. The warm soaks, hand massages and delicious-smelling lotions will undoubtedly keep manicurists in business.
