A cosmetic product designed to soften the thin layer of dead skin cells adhered to the nail plate to allow for safe and easy removal.<\/p>\n<\/div>","cmtt_bcad44eacceea0c4faaa7c357e329cf5":"

Heat spike<\/div>

\n

This is a descriptive term for an exothermic reaction (a chemical process that releases heat). The polymerisation process is an exothermic reaction. This is unlikely to be felt when using liquid and powder as the rate of polymerisation is controlled by the initiator (in the polymer powder) and the catalyst (in the monomer liquid). But with UV cured gels there can be several situations where the polymerisation produces a lot of heat that can be felt by the nail bed. This can be quite painful and can even burn the nail bed.

This can happen if the wrong UV lamp is used, the coating is too thick or the nail plate is thin. It is a situation that should be avoided by using a matched system, thin UV gel coatings, avoiding damage to the nail plate or being aware that a nail plate is naturally thin.<\/p>\n<\/div>","cmtt_4e3b89a162dd8df8a9f8d5de4794ebba":"

Gel polish<\/div>

\n

Gel polish is a type of nail polish that is cured under UV or LED light to create a hard, durable and glossy coating. It is a two-step process that involves applying a base coat, followed by the gel polish color, and then finishing with a top coat. <\/p>\n
\n

The gel polish is composed of a mixture of monomers, oligomers, pigments, and other additives that polymerize when exposed to light. This creates a strong bond with the natural nail, making the manicure long-lasting and resistant to chipping, peeling and cracking. <\/p>\n
\n

Gel polish is typically removed by soaking the nails in acetone, and is a popular choice for people looking for a low-maintenance, high-shine manicure.<\/p>\n<\/div>","cmtt_e4531ac60c2cb1fbabc9f3c62c5f342c":"

Manicure<\/div>

\n

A manicure is a treatment to help improve the condition and appearance of the hands and fingernails. Usually consists of cuticle removal, shaping of the natural nail's free edge, moisturizing, and color or high shine on the nail.<\/p>\n<\/div>","cmtt_6d583362bb50567c57d0fd777854777a":"

Diabetes<\/div>

\n

Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder that occurs when the body cannot properly produce or use insulin, a hormone that regulates blood sugar levels. Insulin is produced by the pancreas and allows glucose (sugar) to enter cells where it is used for energy.<\/p>\n<\/div>","cmtt_233aa7066306b249d62603794d4832bb":"

Cuticle<\/div>

\n

Keratinised and non-living skin cells of the proximal nail fold that seals the edge between the proximal nail fold and the nail plate creating an efficient seal at the base of the nail plate.<\/p>\n<\/div>","cmtt_f94935a711b0f2d9c1ea8eb861281cd1":"

Polish<\/div>

\n

Polish, also known as nail polish or nail enamel, is a cosmetic product that is applied to the nails to add color and shine. It is typically made from a combination of nitrocellulose, a solvent, and pigments or dyes.<\/p>\n<\/div>","cmtt_6e4b2c42b82604c2f739d01368901b8a":"

Cure \/ Curing<\/div>

\n

This is the term used to describe the polymerization process for the acrylics (whether uv gels or l&p systems) used in nail coatings. A 'proper cure' is what should be achieved which is when, at least, 80% of the coating has been polymerised. Anything less than this is considered to be 'under-cured' and can cause an allergic reaction. \"Over-curing\" would be when the nail coating is cured in a lamp that has a stronger output than what the manufacturer recommends, and it will make the nail coating brittle.<\/p>\n<\/div>","cmtt_4eb428598c1d8f289e6897779124e77d":"

UV Gel<\/div>

\n

A nail product that cures (or polymerizes) under a UV lamp.
There are various types of UV gels, categorized by the way they can be removed, or by the way they can be used.

Nail file<\/div>

\n

A\u00a0nail file\u00a0is an abrasive tool used to shape the edges of\u00a0natural nails or correct the shape of nail enhancements. It is often used in\u00a0manicures\u00a0and\u00a0pedicures\u00a0after the nail has been trimmed using appropriate\u00a0nail clippers. Nail files may either be emery boards, ceramic, glass, crystal, or metal files. <\/p>\n<\/div>"}}; -->
