Many women do their own manicures without going to a salon. Now it is not difficult to buy everything you need for this. On the contrary, the choice is so great that sometimes it causes bewilderment: why can't you combine some brands? When purchasing materials in shopping centers, markets or large Internet sites, it is hardly possible to obtain data on the composition and find out the details of the use of a particular product. This is why beginners are disappointed in gel polish, which shrinks in a lamp or breaks off from the tips of nails.
Manufacturers are not always to blame. There are already so many types of gels that you can get confused. And each of them has its own characteristics, designed for a particular technique. If earlier products of world brands were in demand, now very high-quality and inexpensive domestic gel polishes are produced. One of the manufacturers is the Formula Profi company, whose gel polish reviews are worth considering in detail.
Reviews of masters
Salons and private masters work on Formula Profi brand products. A variety of gel polishes allows you to perform any, even verycomplex, design. The company's technologists explain in detail how a particular gel is applied, what features and nuances it has, in which designs it will look most advantageous.
Reviews on gel nail polish "Profi Formula" are only positive. Private masters are satisfied with the combination of high quality and low price, salon masters are satisfied with the breadth of colors and an abundance of design effects. The material is well applied, retains its integrity for a long time. Like all professional products, gels of this brand are demanding in terms of application technology. Gel compatibility with US and European gels allows for multiple brands.
Varieties of gel polishes "Profi Formula"
The reviews of the masters are justified: the company produces seventeen lines of business class gel polishes and two lines of economy class. Each has its own characteristics. In addition to digital marking, each bottle has the name of the series and often its own individual name. This facilitates the selection of colors when working and buying new products to replenish the range.
Many business class collections have 20 colors. Provence is used to create a jacket, and Ombre is used for beautiful gradients. The green-blue gamut, which is complemented by pink-sand shades, is represented by the Marine Mood collection. The Chocolate series includes twenty-four shades: from hot to cold, from milk to bitter, plus white chocolate. The dress code series has beige, pink pastel andNude neutral office colors. The average price of a bottle is 300 rubles, the volume is 5 ml.
Economy series gel polishes
The A-PRO line has one hundred and twenty colors, has glitter, pastel and bright colors, all for French manicure. The cost of one bottle does not exceed 150 rubles.
The StarWay line consists of twenty colors, the price of a bottle is 170 rubles. The Cat Eye series has twenty shades and the same price.
These Formula Profi gel polishes have good reviews. All popular colors are available, if necessary, you can always create a new shade by mixing two or three colors on the palette. If you want to add a little shine to the tone you like, add a dry shimmer. It can be purchased in small boxes from the company in the online store. Or use one of the ten gels of the Cabaret collection - very shiny business-grade glitter shades.
Common designs
"Vanilla Treat" is another interesting collection with forty colors. All of them are inspired by sweet desserts. Here you can find the most "delicious" shades of raspberry, strawberry, pistachio, mint and blueberry ice cream. The Formula Profi company, according to reviews, produced gel polishes of this series to create designs in pastel colors. Therefore, along with creme brulee, it also has grayish shades. It is they that blend perfectly with the skin of the hands and set off the pink.
Masters love to make "knitted nails" with these gel polishes. Selected color on the palettemixed with acrylic powder and applied with an orange stick, imitating a knitting pattern. If you sprinkle the surface of the nail with velor powder, you get an imitation of a mohair sweater. In summer, gentle rainbow stretch marks and a "cremanka" pattern with colored balls are relevant.
"Red Collection" consists of forty shades of red. Shades range from a calm pink tone to a dark cherry, almost black. There are cold and warm shades, pastel and bright colors, provocative bloody, brick, burgundy, wine shades of Malaga and Burgundy. The designs use several gels from the Red Collection to create a gradient or accent nails with a different color.
Base "Profi Formula" and "Profi"
It must be said that the Formula Profi company, operating since 2007, is constantly developing. Some gels are being replaced by others. Slow-moving colors first go on sale and then disappear from the warehouse shelves as they are discontinued. The same can be said about the first phase of the gel polish system - the base gel. Why is this happening?
In the application of gel polishes, the era of ice gels has come, which polymerize under an ice lamp. Now it takes thirty seconds to dry one layer instead of two minutes. Those products that were produced for polymerization under ultraviolet rays have left the arena. They can still be seen in small professional stores, but are no longer in the company's catalog.
Do not confuse gel polishes and modeling gels. Often, bottles differ only in a few words on the label. It is not yet possible to polymerize a large amount of material with LED lamps. Therefore, along with the latest innovations, the company's catalog also includes good old UV gels that will not dry under ice radiation. Some, confusing the base for building with the base for the Formula Profi gel polish, then leave unflattering reviews. There is a new rubber base for gel polish, similar in characteristics to the famous Cody. It is now used by masters. In addition, it can also be applied as a rubber top.
Reviews
Positive reviews about Formula Prof products are left by professionals and those women whose nail plates allow you to wear any gels. In order to find your way with Formula Profi, you need training. It's completely free, technologists teach in online seminars that are available to everyone.
Many negative reviews are caused by misunderstanding. Unlike well-known foreign brands, domestic gel polish is still developing. This entails a constant change in the product catalog. Due attention should be paid to the application of each coating: there are nuances, the neglect of which will negate the result.
Conclusion
Technologists of the company constantly hold master classes, participate in professional exhibitions and are always in touch online. For masters, this is just a godsend. Newbies may find it difficult to work with this brand due to the many features of the product, which is constantly changing.
Still carefuladherence to technology guarantees an excellent result.
