Alternative to gel polish: why choose gel patches
Semi-permanent polish has become a must-have… but more and more women are now looking for an alternative to semi-permanent polish.
Why?
Because despite its flawless finish, it has several often underestimated drawbacks.
In this article, we explain why you should stop using semi-permanent polish and, more importantly, what solution to choose instead.
The disadvantages of semi-permanent polish
Weakened nails in the long term
While semi-permanent polish is attractive for its hold and shiny finish, it nevertheless presents several constraints that ultimately take their toll in the long run.
First, repeated applications can weaken the nails. Between filing, preparing the nail plate, and using acetone during removal, the natural nail is put to a severe test. The result: it often becomes thinner, softer, and more brittle.
Next, the removal itself is far from harmless. It requires time, equipment, and a certain technique. Many women dread this step, which can quickly become aggressive if poorly executed.
Finally, the logistical constraint should not be overlooked. Making appointments at a salon, blocking out time in one's schedule, and incurring a certain cost can become burdensome in daily life.
