In the nail art world, reinforced Gel Polish is rapidly gaining popularity as an innovative technique that offers a strong and durable alternative to traditional gel Gel Polish . This revolutionary approach involves the use of a fuller-bodied, stronger base than conventional Gel Polish , while also allowing the creation of small extensions for flawless, strong nails.

How does Gel Polish reinforced work?

In contrast to the classic Gel Polish gel, the Gel Polish reinforced technique is distinguished by the application of a more abundant layer of base, which allows for the creation of a subtle doming on the natural nail. This fuller base not only provides superior structural support, but also allows the creation of small extensions, which are ideal for those who want slightly longer and stronger nails.

Once the base coat is applied, the Gel Polish gel is spread in thin layers on the nails and hardened using an LED or UV lamp. This process not only ensures a long color hold and a glossy surface, but also helps to further strengthen the nails, ensuring that the work lasts longer.

Advantages of Gel Polish reinforced:

1. Durability: With its fuller-bodied and stronger base, the reinforced Gel Polish offers exceptional durability, withstanding daily stresses and remaining intact for weeks.

2. Stronger and stronger nails: The subtle curvature created by the reinforced base makes nails stronger and less prone to breaking or chipping, providing superior structural support.

3. Versatility in Aesthetics: In addition to its strengthening function, the reinforced Gel Polish also allows for the creation of small extensions, enabling greater customization of nail aesthetics.

4. Ease of maintenance: Despite its extended lifespan, reinforced Gel Polish requires no special care or maintenance, ensuring a flawless appearance for several weeks with minimal attention.

Not all bases, however, are suitable for this technique; it is important that they be dense enough to give the product a chance to mold to the nail. Also, it is preferable that they be self-leveling bases so that a smooth, even finish can be achieved with a minimum amount of effort.

How to perform the Gel Polish reinforced

The procedure is the same as that of Gel Polish classic. What it differs in is the choice and application of the base.

The steps in fact are:

1. Applying the base with a thicker layer than conventional bases and curing in a lamp;
2. Application of Gel Polish in the preferred color and curing in a lamp;
3. Seal top coat application with final lamp curing;

Curing times depend on the products used, as can the volts of the lamp needed to dry the glaze.

 How to choose the most appropriate base

An example of a base particularly suited to this technique Gel Polish is our Fiber Base. In fact, this product has features and a combination of ingredients specifically designed to meet the needs of those seeking a long-lasting, strengthening treatment.

Glass fibers in the composition give the base stiffness and support. This is crucial for Gel Polish reinforced, as the glass fibers help prevent cracking and flaking, providing greater strength than traditional bases. 

In addition, calcium pantothenate, known for its elasticizing properties, is essential for treating brittle and thin nails. This vitamin helps strengthen the nail from the inside, making it less susceptible to breaking and bending.

Vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant with emollient and smoothing properties, further contributes to improved nail health and appearance. Its antioxidant action protects nails from environmental damage, while its emollient and smoothing properties ensure that the nail is smooth and visibly healthier.

Fiber Base also makes it possible to avoid the step of applying colored Gel Polish , as it is already available in different colors.
