Bases for nails with shimmer

Hands are what indicates the available opportunities for self-care and gives out age. Without a neat manicure, the image will not look complete, even if the woman has perfect makeup and a stylish hairstyle.

The means and tools of the modern beauty industry allow you to get a decent result not only in professional salons, but also at home. Among the huge range of nail services, gel polish with a shimmer is an absolute novelty. A shimmer is an interspersing of many tiny shiny particles into the structure of a gel polish. The shimmery effect creates an unusual play of light reflections on the nails with natural shimmering reflections.

Suitable not only for flawless nails, but also for those who have nails with minor defects. The special texture of the gel polish with a shimmer will fill and hide small cracks, small bumps and vertical grooves. But in order for nails with such a manicure to really shine, you need to choose a high-quality base for gel polish.

There are 3 types of base.

• Leveling. Makes the nail plate homogeneous due to the dense texture.
• Rubber. Easily and reliably distributed over the nail plate. This species is widely popular.
• Camouflage. It has a camouflage effect, hides small nail defects and an undesirable shade of the color of the nail plate (yellowish, blue).

For women who prefer a discreet nail art with a twist, a manicure with a shimmery camouflage gel polish will be the most correct solution. This option looks aesthetically pleasing and natural, as the surface of the nail acquires a pastel shade. Manufacturers offer a wide selection of bases for gel polish. Nude tones and beige shades are the most popular, but there are also white, milky, pearl pink, cream. There are colorless, matte, translucent and transparent base options.

When choosing, keep in mind that there are no ideal options. Even eminent nail service masters use several bases in their work. Girls who independently perform this difficult creative procedure at home also change the basis from time to time, as their preferences may change, they want variety, they saw something better.

When choosing a base, you should focus on the condition of your nails.

• For strong and even nails, you can choose the usual base of a liquid consistency.. Such nails do not require alignment, the product is applied in a thin layer.
• For thin, weakened nails with minor damage, a leveling rubber base with good adhesion is better. The nail plate is thickened, leveled and strengthened.
• For a nail plate of a non-uniform color with small flaws, camouflage bases must be chosen. This option is considered the most suitable for light tones of shimmer gel polishes and for a French jacket.

Before applying the base, the nails must be carefully prepared from all sides: filed, sanded and degreased. Then the base will be evenly distributed over the nail plate, and the grip will be strong and reliable. It is important to apply the base in a very thin layer with rubbing movements. It is better to perform the procedure in 2 layers: first, apply one base layer, dry it, and then - to even out - apply a second layer, which will also need to be dried in a lamp.
