Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint - Lemon Sorbet

No, Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint is a traditional nail lacquer designed to give a gel-like finish and plumping effect without needing a UV or LED lamp for curing. It applies and removes like regular nail polish.

Absolutely not! This product is formulated to deliver a gel-like look without any special curing lamps. It air-dries like regular nail polish.

For extended wear, always start with a clean, dry nail, apply a base coat, two thin coats of the Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint, and finish with a durable top coat, such as the Barry M Plumpy Topcoat. Re-apply a thin layer of top coat every 2-3 days if needed.

While not strictly mandatory for the polish to adhere, using a base coat is highly recommended. It helps protect your natural nails from staining, improves polish adhesion, and can extend the wear time of your manicure.

The manufacturer specifically recommends using the Barry M Plumpy Topcoat to achieve the best high-shine, plumping, and long-lasting gel-like finish.

For optimal color payoff and the intended gel-like finish, we recommend applying two thin, even coats of the Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint, allowing each coat to dry thoroughly before applying the next.

The Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint can be easily removed with any standard acetone or non-acetone nail polish remover, just like traditional nail polish.

Ensure nails are clean and dry before application. Always use a base coat and finish with a good quality top coat, capping the free edge of your nails with each layer.

For the ultimate high-shine, a top coat is crucial. The manufacturer recommends the Barry M Plumpy Topcoat for best results. Also, ensure you apply thin, even coats and allow sufficient drying time between layers.

Apply the polish in thin, even coats, rather than thick ones. Allow each coat to dry thoroughly before applying the next. Two thin coats usually yield a smoother finish than one thick coat.
