Any girl and woman always has nail polish on the dressing table, and sometimes several. This type of make-up was developed more than 80 years ago and has enjoyed a well-deserved demand ever since.
Experts said that there are two types of nail polishes. The first is medicated varnishes. They serve to strengthen and protect nails from delamination. They contain vitamins, calcium and valuable extracts.
Everyone knows the second type. These are, in fact, decorative varnishes widely used for manicure.
There are also base varnishes and fixing varnishes. The bases are used to prevent the pigments of colored varnish from eating into the nail plate, as well as to level the nail before coating it with colored varnish. Finishing varnishes are needed to protect the manicure from scratches, chips and cracks.
Now let's move on to the glossy and matte varnishes. Glossy coatings pioneered the nail industry and are still relevant today. Varnishes with a pearlescent finish have pearl pigments and are extremely durable. Matte nail polishes are popular with those in a hurry as they dry quickly.
From the varieties of colored varnishes, glitter varnishes, chameleon varnishes, metallic varnishes can be distinguished. Glitter will come in handy for creating a festive, radiant manicure; Chameleon lacquer changes color in different light conditions, and metallic lacquer creates the effect of foil made of gold or silver on nails.
Separately, it is worth mentioning gel polishes, which have become very popular in recent years. They give a durable coating that is indistinguishable in appearance from simple varnishes. But in the kit for a set of such varnishes, you should purchase a special lamp, under which you need to dry the coating.
