The concept of "gel polish" generally means "gel polish" in literal translation. And there are a lot of companies producing it, ranging from the first and world-famous Shellac to Chinese gel polishes at low prices. And just one of the firms of the Celestial Empire produces a material called Gel Polish. At a very democratic price. But what about the quality?
Color Palette
Of course, it plays far from the first role in the choice of material. However, the breadth of the palette also matters. And Polish gel has more than 170 colors. Not weak! But Chinese manufacturers generally differ in this: the more, the better, in their opinion. And some are even willing to sacrifice quality for quantity. But the fact remains - the palette of gel polishes and gels from the Middle Kingdom is extensive, bright, colorful and very diverse.
Cost of materials
Gel "Polish" can be purchased, depending on the seller, at a price of 80 to 300 rubles perbottle. In this case, it is necessary to pay attention to the volume of the material itself. For example, for 80 rubles you can buy a bottle of 5 ml. For home use, this volume is quite enough, but for work as a manicurist - very little, it takes a little more. But in any case, the low cost of the material is another "trick" of the Celestial Empire. Gels and gel polishes are uncommonly cheaper, in addition, many sellers often arrange sales or give a discount on orders of three or more positions (bottles).
Quality materials
As the practice of many masters shows, Gel Polish, presented in the photo, has a fairly good quality. However, there are some peculiarities. So, pale and light shades do not lie too evenly in one layer. Therefore, the nails have to be covered two or three times. But dark colors look good even in one layer. The masters also note that, in the view of Chinese manufacturers, Polish gel and gel polish are almost the same thing. Therefore, it is recommended to pay attention to the last option. Gel polish is intended for manicure, not for building nails. The last procedure is already going out of fashion, giving way to naturalness.
Socks term
Naturally, it is impossible to evaluate quality without assessing durability. Gel "Polish" on average lasts about two to three weeks without chipping. But! Provided that the base and fixer are used by another company. It is noted that the “native” base and top do not do their job well: the material is chipped from the nailsalready on the third day. Therefore, to get a really resistant manicure, you should pay attention to the means of other companies. By the way, some masters in nail art schools are sure that if there is a good quality base and top, then any gel polish will last for a long time. Perhaps there is some truth in this.
Customer opinions
Gel "Polish", reviews of which are very positive, has already fallen in love with many girls and masters. Firstly, with proper use, it lasts a long time: three weeks. Secondly, the cost of the material is not the highest, so it is profitable to purchase it. Thirdly, an extensive palette! Yes, this is what primarily attracts the gel and gel polish of this company.

Most often they are used to perform a French manicure or some special design with decorative elements. For example, with broths, mica or feathers. Yes, and for a point design, the material will do just fine.
Final opinion
Yes, Chinese materials do not inspire much confidence, but they attract with their cheapness, therefore they are in demand. Polish gel polish can be purchased without much concern, like the gel of this series. Moreover, its cost is not the highest. With the right processing and approach to manicure, there is a chance to get a really long-term and high-quality design. It is only important to follow all the rules and canons of applicationgel polishes and gels. And, of course, use a high-quality base and fixer.
