Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint - Chai

No, Barry M Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint is specially formulated to provide a gel-like finish and high shine without the need for any special UV or LED curing lamp. It dries naturally like traditional nail polish.

For extended longevity, ensure proper nail preparation (clean, buff), apply thin, even coats of polish, and always finish with a layer of Barry M Plumpy Topcoat. Avoid using your nails as tools to prevent chips.

Yes, Barry M is committed to ethical practices, and this Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint is proudly free from animal testing.

We generally recommend applying two thin coats of the Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint for optimal color opacity, depth, and to achieve the best 'gelly' finish. Some users may prefer three coats for an even richer look.

This nail paint can be easily removed with any standard nail polish remover, whether it's acetone-based or non-acetone. No special soaking or scraping is required, unlike traditional gel polishes.

While you can use other topcoats, for the ultimate 'gelly' effect, high shine, and plumping finish, we highly recommend using the Barry M Plumpy Topcoat as it is specifically designed to complement this formula and maximize its benefits.

Ensure your nails are thoroughly clean and free of any oils or lotions before applying polish. Apply thin, even coats and always finish with a high-quality topcoat, especially the Barry M Plumpy Topcoat, which is designed to enhance durability.

Apply thinner coats of polish and allow adequate drying time between each layer. Avoid applying too much pressure with the brush, using 2-3 smooth strokes per nail to achieve an even finish.

The signature 'gelly' effect and high shine are significantly boosted by using the Barry M Plumpy Topcoat. Ensure you apply this specific topcoat over your color layers for optimal results.

Thick coats of polish require more time to dry. Always apply thin layers and ensure each coat is almost dry before applying the next. A quick-dry topcoat can also help reduce overall drying time.

Avoid vigorously shaking the bottle; instead, gently roll it between your palms to mix the polish. Apply thin coats and ensure your nails are completely dry from any previous layers (base coat, first color coat) to prevent trapping air.
