Zinger manicure sets: types, characteristics and application
“You can be an efficient person and think about the beauty of nails” - the famous line of A. Pushkin is relevant in our modern time. Well-groomed hands are a dream not only of the fair sex. What is especially pleasant is that many men pay due attention to their appearance, including the way their hands look. In order to look “one hundred percent”, it is not at all necessary to spend personal time visiting fashionable salons, especially since it takes a lot of time. It is enough to afford to purchase a high-quality professional manicure set, for example, from the well-known manufacturer Zinger.
A bit of history
Many experts say that manicure sets from the German manufacturer Zinger, which began its activity 20 years ago, deserve every praise. The high quality of professional tools allows you to use them for many years and not be disappointed in them.
The art of manicure dates back to ancient times. Even in Ancient Greece and Ancient Egypt, women of fashion used the services of a cosmetic - a person who knows how to emphasize the features of appearance with the help of various manicure tricks, and in China, a thousand years ago, well-groomed nails indicated the high position of their owner. The manicure set of antiquity included the obligatory mirrors and plates, outwardly reminiscent of modern nail files. A little later, this assortment was supplemented by multi-colored varnishes and tips made of expensive metals that are put on the fingers and create the impression of long, grown nails.
Zinger Manicure Sets
Today, professional sets from a German manufacturer, ideal for both female and male manicure, include a considerable number of necessary tools.
- Nippers - a very significant element of a manicure set. You need to choose them with a small blade so as not to injure yourself, since only professionals can work with pliers with a wide blade. The blades of good tools should be in perfect contact with each other when pressed and be perfectly sharpened: the whole effect of a manicure depends on this. The nippers should not be tight, but should be compressed and unclenched smoothly. Experienced craftsmen recommend paying attention to instruments made of surgical steel; the metal should be free from defects and notches.
- Nail scissors allow you to adjust the length of the grown nail. Usually, their blade has a special ergonomic curvature, which allows you to achieve excellent results when using them. The steel from which they are made contains nickel, which prevents rusting. You need to sharpen the scissors manually.
- Cuticle scissors are designed to remove a burr - a raised skin near the nail. Such a nuisance can ruin the whole impression of even an expensive and beautiful manicure, so these accessories must be present in any set. Cuticle scissors are a very sharp tool, so you need to be careful when doing manicure so as not to injure your finger. First you need to soften the cuticle by holding your hands in warm water, and then carefully cut off the regrown skin. The best scissors in this case should be made of medical steel. Therefore, it is necessary to choose professional tools from the manufacturer, and not a cheaper fake.
- Clippers from Zinger - This is a very safe manicure tool, it can be used even when cutting nails in babies. The clipper's blades are very sharp, easily cut nails, even flaking and fragile. Due to the fact that this element of the manicure set is small, you can easily carry it with you on long trips. In some cases, it is also suitable for removing cuticles.
- For cuticle removal, many kits use pushers or scrapers... This is a professional tool, similar to a spatula, to push away excess skin at the base of the nail, thereby accelerating its growth. The pusher has two working sides: the spatula-shaped side pulls off the skin, and the sharp side cuts it off absolutely painlessly. In some cases, experts use it to remove gel polish by picking up its layer on the nail plate.
The tool may have slightly different tips - in the form of a hatchet, oval, square and circle. However, everyone has one task - to remove the cuticle. They produce pushers from metal, wood, silicone and plastic. The average cost of such a "tool" is about 350 rubles.
Another of the most common manicure set accessories is the essential nail file. Very often, many women of fashion even wear it in a purse to touch up an accidentally damaged nail. Zinger files come in different hardnesses. By the way, it is measured in so-called grits. A nail file with a hardness of up to 200 grit is used only when working with artificial nails, but natural nails cannot be processed like this: the nail plates may suffer. Natural nail plates can only be sanded with a file up to 400 grit, and they must be polished with a tool with a hardness of about 1000 units.
Qualified manicure masters have in their arsenal several files of different hardness. The most popular are Zinger emery files, they perfectly correct nails. And despite the fact that they do not last long, the effect of their use is beyond praise. Gentle abrasiveness is achieved by spraying Teflon or quartz chips.If the base of the file is plastic, then the service life of such a tool increases.
It is very convenient to carry it in a purse or pocket, but you should not let anyone else use it: it is not recommended to wash or sterilize the nail file, you can only clean the surface with a special brush or a simple toothbrush. Glass files from Zinger are considered to be durable, externally graceful and very functional. True, this instrument is fragile; it is better to store it in a special case.
Zinger also offers customers special polishing files... They differ in the degree of rigidity, but they are united by their "common goal" - to make the surface of the nail even and smooth. Polishers are able to create a glossy effect on natural nails.
Nail salon at home
A convenient manicure cosmetic set from Zinger, which you can take with you on a long trip, according to reviews of many users, will help you out more than once if necessary, even if you just need to correct a broken nail. Professional manicure sets presented today by the German manufacturer will be able to bring your nails into perfect order with high quality. An excellent manicure, male and female, will be the best proof of the professionalism and convenience of such tools.
If you wish, you can choose not only the instruments themselves, but also the cases in which they should be stored.
- Sets with a cosmetic bag. A solid case that looks like a small suitcase, as well as a convenient cosmetic bag, will help you to carry with you not only accessories for manicure, but also various cosmetics, for example, nail polish remover. Typically, these sets are stylishly designed, but not cheap. In order to convince the buyer of the need to purchase just such a set, manufacturers offer tools made of high-quality steel of different shades: from golden to "black pearls".
- Compact sets in a case take up little space in the bag and are very practical when moving. And although outwardly they do not look as presentable as the previous version, this does not affect the quality in any way. Hand-sharpened tools will perfectly cope with their "duties".
- Soft case, which outwardly resembles a women's wallet, has been in demand for more than a year. Their price is much lower than the analogs of "packaged" sets, but the contents are absolutely the same: sharp, perfectly sharpened tools will allow you to make a manicure in the most extreme conditions and turn a beauty session into a real pleasure.
Summing up all of the above, I would like to note that cosmetic accessories from Zinger have served their owners for many years. Moreover, the ratio "price - quality" allows you to make the right choice.
