A new gel polish "Rosalind" has appeared on sale. Reviews about him from buyers from "Aliexpress" are contradictory. But what do the masters say? Maybe there are subtleties of applying this particular gel polish? Of course, such features exist, and we will talk about them.
Manicure is important
Modern woman always has a perfect manicure. Some visit the salon, but many do gel polish at home on their own. At the same time, there are certain difficulties: sometimes it is not possible to buy exactly the brand of gel polish that you have already adapted to, or you want to change the manufacturer because of problems with wearing gel polish.
Online stores come to the rescue, offering products for any budget. But how to make sure that the selected bottle is what you need? There are principles here, following which, you can not be afraid of a misfire in choosing a new brand of gel polish.
Varnishes from "Aliexpress"
Gel polish "Rosalind", reviews of which are quite numerous today, has recently gained popularity. The branch of decorative cosmetics in manicure is a new branch of the chemical industry. There is still a lot of experimentation, trial and error. It is not surprising, therefore, that new brands of products are constantly coming out, in particular gel polishes. Unsuccessful options are forgotten, they are replaced by a new generation. Yes, and in the novelty itself, improvements can be constantly made, the color and hiding power, the bottle and the type of base, top, basic preparatory liquids can change.
In order not to get on the last batch of an unsuccessful product or not to buy a very obvious new product, unknown to the general consumer, you should find out the rating of the brand you like and read the reviews. Gel polish "Rosalind" has high purchase rates, which means that the brand is stable. According to reviews, it is better to focus on the opinion of masters who deal with different nail plates of clients and have the opportunity to track the quality of wearing the coating.
New gel polish
The Rosalind store has been known on Aliexpress for four years. Its full name is Rosalind Beauty Shop, delivery is about a month, a large percentage (over 95%) of positive reviews. Customers note the following:
- Rosalind Gel Polish is packaged in black glass bottles, the caps are fitted tightly so that the product does not leak.
- Comfortable brush.
- Good working consistency. The material is opaque, but it is better to apply two layers of color, because sometimes one is not enough - the previous layer shines through.
- Like all modern gel polishes, it polymerizes in UV and LED lamps. Doesn't curl or bubble when dry.
- The color almost matchespicture from the store, but the screen setting is different for everyone, so the exact color can only be chosen experimentally.
Base "Rosalind"
Each brand of gel polish has its own base and top coat. There are also Rosalind gel polishes. In reviews of the base, buyers note that it must be applied in a thin layer, since the coating can bake in a lamp. This is due to the large number of photoinitiators - the polymerization reaction is accompanied by heat release. But it dries faster than other brands. The stated time from the manufacturer is 2 minutes in UV, 30 seconds in LED lamp.
After manicure, removal of natural shine from the nail, degreasing and primer coating, apply the base. Some masters first apply the first layer with rubbing movements, squeezing the brush well on the edge of the bottle. This helps in the future to apply subsequent even layers, without flowing onto the cuticle and rollers. After polymerization, if the nail has irregularities, another base layer is applied in the usual way. The highlight on the nail should be straight and even, not interrupted. This means that the base coat is applied perfectly.
Rosalind Top
Top gel polish for nails "Rosalind", reviews of which are few, has a thick structure and is able to level out. Many masters are accustomed to certain top brands and do not want to switch to new ones. They can be understood: the quality suits, why experiment? But still it is worth taking a closer look at the top of this brand. It protects the coating well from chips,allowing you to do housework: wash dishes, do gardening. It is more difficult to apply than conventional top coats. He reaches for the brush, so the movements should be slow and accurate. After application, the hand is turned over and allowed to level for a few seconds, after which it is placed in a lamp. If not dried, the coating will be "rubber", brittle.
This top does not have a dispersion layer, after application it does not need to be degreased, you just need to let it “cool down” for two minutes. This top can be rubbed on (this is the smallest shining dust that is applied with a sponge).
Removing the cover
In addition to the positive, there are also negative customer reviews. Gel Polish "Rosalind" is difficult to remove. There are reviews that are directly opposite, that it is removed very well and quickly using ordinary wrappers with gel polish remover. Apparently, the use of a primer will affect.
If the coating is not removed quickly, it makes sense to cut it off. Since the base has a very good adhesion to the nail, does not reach for the file, bends along with the nail plate and is not afraid of expansion from water, it is problematic to remove it. Yes, this is not required. The transparent layer of the base, which will remain on the nail after removing the top and color with a cutter, will not interfere with the application of a new coating.
The cutter for the manicure device must be ceramic, since metal or emery caps cause strong heat, it will be hot to remove gel polish. The ceramic cutter removes heat and copes with the removal very quickly. The advantage of thismethod - no smell of acetone-containing liquids. The cutter lasts a very long time, resulting in material removal savings.
Diamond series
In the Rosalind line of gel polishes, reviews of shimmer shades are very good. Opaque gel polishes, good application from the first layer, beautiful shimmer in the light - all this makes them relevant. The "Diamond" series was released, where shimmer and larger glitter of different colors coexist in one coating, creating the effect of a brilliant shine. For daily wear, not for everyone, but given the winter holidays, these shades will be in great demand.
Cat's eye
Many brands have these metallic gel polishes in their palette, Rosalind is not far behind the majority. In reviews of gel polishes "cat's eye" about the color scheme, buyers note a limited choice of colors, calm and not very bright colors. Therefore, it is better to apply them on a black substrate so that the color is more intense.
There is a neon "cat's eye", orange, very similar to the eyes of Persian cats. Let's hope that the palette of "cats" will be replenished.
There is an interesting design for these gel polishes: after a magnet is brought up and a strip appears, it is gently shifted into a spiral with a needle, and a rose is obtained. It looks very impressive.
Faux Fur
This is a novelty in nail design. The coating is interesting in itself, but it also attracts the possibility of combining it with others.textures and the use of "faux fur" gel polish as a background for subsequent stamping or drawing monograms with gel paste. Looks unusual and rich.
Thermolaks
The series of thermal varnishes consists of a small number of pleasant colors. With a sufficient length of the nail plate, they form an original jacket: the cold tip of the nail will become darker. On short nails, this gel polish will be plain and light, so not everyone likes to use it on a short nail plate. But the option may look interesting in the cold season, because in a warm room the varnish will be one color, and on the street - another.

Customer Reviews
This gel polish is known in Poland, America, and Ukraine. Inexpensive reliable material. During the existence of the store, its products have become better. A rubber top appeared, a matte top. The bottles began to be produced in black glass. Perhaps the complaints about the non-removable material relate to older versions of Rosalind products. Buyers leave positive feedback. The photo of Rosalind gel polish reflects how evenly it is applied. It is called the best self-leveling gel polish on Aliexpress, it ranks third in the ranking.
Masters note that it is worn up to four weeks. Although, according to an old habit, they make a coating with a different top and base. Gelfavor, the updated "Rosalind", changed the bottle, but remained the same product. Note the good filling of seven-milliliter minions. It is especially advised to adhere to the scheme for applying all layers of gel polish forlong wear.
