Glossy varnish

Glossy varnish is an old friend of any girl. We used the lacquer of this texture at the first manicure, going for the first date and maybe even going to the first interview in our life.

How to choose a good glossy varnish?

And now, despite the appearance of new textures of varnishes, we continue to use in our manicure a glossy varnish. Here are the most popular and high-quality modern varnishes with a glossy texture:

1. Dior Vernis - almost perfect varnish. This varnish has everything that we usually look for: bright, beautiful shades, firmness (the varnish keeps calm for 1-2 weeks), quick drying. But there is one serious disadvantage - the price. The cost of glossy nail varnish Dior Vernis fluctuates around $ 30. Not every girl will want to spend such a sum on nail polish.
2. Lucky from the company "ORLY" is a huge palette of quality glossy varnishes. Including not so common gold glossy nail polish. In the "ORLY" there are no harmful substances such as dibutyl phthalate, toluene and formaldehyde. This ensures the health of your nails. The price is more than modest. Depending on the shade, one varnish can cost from $ 4 to $ 8. The disadvantage of these glossy varnishes for nails can be considered that they last a long time. Therefore in the complete set to it it is desirable to get the special agent for fast drying of a varnish.
3. Maybelline Colorama "Glossy shades" - this is twice more saturated colors compared with other varnishes by Maybelline. The series includes 41 shades. According to the manufacturer, the varnish is kept for about a week. In practice, the lacquer starts to slice for 4-5 days after application. But the price of lacquer, which is $ 2- $ 3, completely compensates for this small flaw.

In order to diversify your image with matte varnish , you do not need to buy it separately. After all, any glossy nail polish can be turned into matte. To do this, you must perform several simple actions:

1. Heat a little water, so that steam would come from it.
