Shellac truly is a hybrid of traditional nail polish and UV gel polish. Unlike soak-off gels it comes in a polish bottle and unlike traditional polish it cures/dries under a UV lamp.
Shellac paints on like polish base coat, colour, top coat and is cured in a UV light so there is zero dry time. The colours are hypo-allergenic, and 3-Free no formaldehyde, toluene or DBP. The formula is thin and flexible like polish, so it not only looks natural, it provides strong natural nail protection with a resilient mirror finish that resists dullness and chipping for 2 weeks, even during the most rigorous activities.
Shellac UV Base Coat cures in 10 seconds and all you need is one thin layer which forms the foundation for the Shellac system.
