Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint - Blue Guava

No, the Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint achieves a gel-look finish without the need for any UV or LED curing lamps. It dries naturally like traditional nail polish.

For best results, including full color opacity and optimal shine, we recommend applying two thin coats of the Blue Guava nail paint.

Yes, Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint is 100% cruelty-free and vegan, meaning it contains no animal-derived ingredients and has not been tested on animals.

While you can use most standard topcoats, for the best 'gel-look' finish and enhanced durability, we highly recommend using the Barry M Plumpy Topcoat.

Each bottle of Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint contains a net volume of 0.34 fl. oz (10ml) of product.

The Gelly Hi Shine formula is designed for long-lasting wear. With proper application, including a basecoat and Plumpy Topcoat, you can expect your manicure to last for several days without significant chipping, though individual results may vary based on activity.

Ensure your nails are clean and dry before application. Apply thin, even coats and allow each coat to dry fully before applying the next. Avoid overloading the brush with too much polish.

Proper nail preparation (clean, dry nails) is crucial. Always use a basecoat to create a smooth surface and help polish adhere. Finish with a quality topcoat, especially the Barry M Plumpy Topcoat, to seal and protect your manicure. Apply thin coats rather than thick ones, as thick coats tend to chip faster.

Ensure you are applying two full coats of the color for maximum opacity and depth. Most importantly, finish with the recommended Barry M Plumpy Topcoat, which is designed to deliver that signature high-shine gel finish.

Applying excessively thick coats is a common cause of long drying times. Always aim for thin, even layers, allowing sufficient time for each coat to set before applying the next. Applying a quick-dry topcoat can also help reduce overall drying time.
