The palette of shades and features of applying Rosalind gel varnishes
On Aliexpress there is a line of gel polishes called Rosalind. It has predominantly positive customer reviews and is often used by professional nail service masters in beauty salons. To dry the coating, an ultraviolet or LED lamp is required. We will talk about what qualities the material has and how to apply it correctly in this article.
Peculiarities
The Rosalind brand has a very wide range of products. Beautiful ladies like such series as "Cat's Eye", shimmery, lilac, matte, and many others. This is due to the fact that the material is perfectly applied, has a comfortable brush, dries quickly and looks very attractive. In addition, all gel polishes have an affordable price, which allows everyone to purchase them.
If, for some reason, you have to combine gel polishes of this brand with materials from other manufacturers, this will not cause problems. However, it is better to clarify this moment in advance, some may not work. The bottle is produced in a volume of 7 milliliters, which is quite a bit, but it is rather a plus, since the material will not have time to dry out. It should be noted also the possibility of mixing tones, which gives the master a variety of new shades that meet the needs of even the most demanding fashionistas. The design of the bottles is varied, nevertheless it does not interfere. Each collection is made in the same style. Most often, the bottles are made of matte black glass, they have a sticker with the composition of the material. Rosalind has all the necessary quality certificates and is absolutely safe for the consumer. The average price of 1 gel polish is about a dollar.
Among the disadvantages of the product, it can be noted that the varnish flows down from the brush, so it can be problematic to open the bottle. In addition, many will find the smell unpleasant.
Base and top
Each company that creates nail care products has both a base and a top in its line. Experts recommend applying the base coat very thinly, so beautiful ladies will not feel painful when drying in a lamp. The base can be baked, since it contains photoinitiators. When they cure, heat is generated. However, the base also has advantages. It dries quite quickly, the time spent on this process takes from 30 seconds to 2 minutes, depending on the type of lamp.
After the master has completed the manicure, removed the natural shine from the nail plate, degreased it and applied a primer, it is time to use the base coat. Experts advise to apply it in two layers, the first is rubbing into the nail, the second is already on top, so the surface will be smoother. With the correct application of the base, the nail will have an even, continuous highlight.
As for the Rosalind tops, they are quite thick and have the ability to self-level. In addition, this coating protects the gel polish from chips and abrasion, you can do household chores with it without fear of manicure. Nevertheless, the application has its own characteristics.
Take your time when covering your nails with a Rosalind top. Due to its density, it will reach for the brush, so the work requires special care. When the top is applied to the nail plate, the hand needs to be turned over for a few seconds, and then put into the lamp. Degreasing is not required, but you need to wait a couple of minutes for the coating to cool down.
Removing the cover
As for removing the coating, there may also be some nuances. Some reviews specify that gel polish is difficult to remove. This can be influenced by the use of a primer.
If it is not possible to remove the coating in the usual way, the craftsmen recommend cutting it down. The base adheres firmly to the nail, so you do not need to remove it, and it will not be so easy to do it. The new gel polish will be applied directly on top. It is most convenient to cut the coating with a ceramic cutter, since other materials can cause severe discomfort to clients due to overheating. This scheme has one more advantage - during it liquids containing acetone are not used, therefore, there will be no unpleasant odor.
About series
A wide color palette and various series make Rosalind products popular with both craftsmen and their clients. Let's consider in more detail the main lines that are in special demand - diamond, "Cat's Eye", "Faux Fur", and thermovarnish. Shimmery shades of the diamond series are appreciated by the fair sex for their stunning diamond shine, especially relevant for holidays, parties and other events. The material fits easily, shimmers beautifully when exposed to light. Gel polish with finer glitter can be used for everyday wear, it looks very neat and cute.
Metallic gel varnishes "Cat's Eye" have long been loved by women of fashion and are represented in the collections of many manufacturers. Rosalind is no exception, however, the palette of these colors is not particularly diverse, the shades are mostly calm. In this case, application on black would be an excellent option, this will give effect and intensity. The orange material will stand out brightly in neon light.
Nail service technicians often use this application technique: after a strip is formed under the influence of a magnet, it moves into a spiral with a thin needle, resulting in a spectacular and unusual rose.
One of the new products that has managed to fall in love with women of fashion all over the world is the series "Artificial fur"... The coating looks quite original, which is of particular interest. In addition, it can be combined with materials from other series, which gives a special richness and unusual design. As for thermal varnishes, their color range is not so wide, however, the shades are very pleasant.If the marigolds are of sufficient length, the jacket turns out to be very beautiful, as it darkens at the tips. In the case of short nails, the tone may seem insufficiently saturated, but this option will be an original find in winter, since in the warm and cold, the gel polish will change its color.
