Exploring the realm of nail care unveils unexpected intricacies, particularly when it comes to dealing with manchas en las uñassegún uno de nuestros valiosos clientes.
Despite conscientious efforts in application and curing techniques, they found their nail plates marred by stubborn stains, particularly after adorning them with a rich, dark red hue.
In our pursuit of unraveling this perplexing issue, we look into the critical role of the base coat, shedding light on how its thickness can influence staining susceptibility. Join us as we explore the unique challenges posed by red-colored nail coatings and unveil strategies to mitigate staining while restoring the beauty and resilience of your client’s nails.
Manchar las uñas: Importancia del grosor de la capa base
One of the first things to consider is the base coat, since applying it too thinly can increase staining.
Comprender el reto de los esmaltes rojos y las manchas en las uñas
Red colored nail coatings are one of the greatest challenges for the nail plate. It is difficult to create a deep red color that doesn’t stain the nail plate. Because some red colorant molecules can penetrate the nail plate’s surface. When that occurs, the molecules collect and pool just underneath the surface to create a visible stain.
Manchas en las uñas: El papel del endurecimiento incompleto
The surface of the nail coating may seem hard, but if the color coat isn’t completely cured all the way through, it will remain tacky in the area where it meets the base coat. This is called a “tacky interface”, in technical terms. This tacky interface allows colorants to move around more easily, into and through the base coat, so nail plate surface staining becomes easier.
Esto es especialmente cierto en las zonas con la superficie de la uña dañada. Las placas de las uñas que están demasiado limadas, descascarilladas, picadas o dañadas de algún otro modo se manchan más fácilmente. Esto es difícil de evitar cuando las superficies de las uñas están dañadas. Cuanto mayor es el daño, más probable es que se produzcan manchas.
Técnicas de aplicación con éxito
Also, it is very important to note that staining is more likely to occur when the color coating is applied too thickly. So, besides finding a solution to the surface peeling problems, perhaps what this nail professional needs is more base coat and less color coat.
