This is probably the commonly used style of nail polish, it gives great colours but can often come at a cost! They might look amazing, but the truth is that acrylics contain a substance that hardens the nail and damages the nail bed. Also, you might not have noticed, acrylic nails can also smell really bad and give a somewhat fake look overall.

Gel polish is something that is simply painted over your nail then put underneath a UV light to dry. It’s a great option for someone looking for a cheaper manicure, but the fact is that gel nails only last about two weeks, with the polish tending to disappear and faint really quickly. You might find that you end up taking it off sooner than that to avoid nails looking uneven.

Dip nail powder is fast becoming the best-regarded method for nail art. It involves applying a base coat and then dipping your fingers one by one into a container of the powder. After that, an activator coat is applied and hey presto! It is now seen as the best option because it takes mere minutes and doesn’t contain any harmful chemicals.
