Most at-home polishes chip within days and leave a dull finish, while many gels feel thick and damaging. This professional gel polish system delivers long-lasting salon wear with a high-gloss finish, while the included nail shields add an extra layer of care for your natural nails.

The gel polish harnesses a blend of Di-Hema Trimethylhexyl Dicarbamate, Hema and PEG-9 Dimethacrylate to create a strong, cross-linked network once cured under an LED or UV lamp. Photoinitiators such as Hydroxycyclohexyl Phenyl Ketone and Trimethylbenzoyl Diphenylphosphine Oxide ensure an efficient cure, while solvent balance supports smooth application and controlled viscosity.

The formula applies as a thin, self-levelling liquid that settles into an even layer before curing. Once set, it delivers a hard-wearing, glossy finish that maintains its shine and resists chipping for up to two weeks with correct prep and curing. Nail shields provide a weightless, flexible base that feels comfortable on the nail plate.

For best results, apply over properly prepared nails and cure each layer thoroughly under an LED or UV lamp. Use the nail shields on clean, dry nails before gel application if you prefer an extra protective buffer and easier removal. Keep coats thin to ensure even curing and longer wear.

UV/LED-activated gel network delivers up to 2 weeks of chip-resistant wear when used as directed.Self-levelling texture helps reduce ridging and streaks for a smoother, more refined manicure.Nail shields with acrylates copolymer adhesive create a protective, peelable layer between gel and natural nail.Optimised solvent blend supports thin, controllable coats that cure evenly from base to surface.

Pair this gel polish with Sensationail base and top coats for a fully optimised curing system and extended wear. Use the nail shields whenever you want a more protective manicure that can be removed with less soaking and scraping.

This gel polish and nail shield pairing delivers salon-level longevity, shine and protection in a straightforward at-home system.

• Step 1. Start with clean, dry nails, gently pushing back cuticles and lightly buffing the nail surface.
• Step 2. Apply nail shields to each nail if desired, smoothing out any bubbles and trimming to fit the nail edge.
• Step 3. Apply a thin layer of gel base coat, cap the free edge and cure under an LED or UV lamp as directed.
• Step 4. Brush on a thin layer of gel polish, avoiding skin and cuticles, cap the free edge, then cure fully.
• Step 5. Repeat with a second thin coat of gel polish if needed, curing again for the recommended time.
• Step 6. Finish with a gel top coat, capping the free edge, cure thoroughly and cleanse any inhibition layer if required.

Pro Tips

• Keep every coat very thin to promote even curing and reduce the risk of lifting at the edges.
• Avoid getting gel on the skin; clean any overflow before curing to help prevent premature lifting.
• Lightly buff the shiny surface of old gel before soaking off to speed up removal and reduce scraping.
• Allow a small gap around the cuticle area when applying polish to help maintain a neat line as nails grow.
