Are acrylic nails and gel polish bad for your nails?
Acrylic nails and gel polish look very beautiful, we absolutely agree with that. However, it is often said that gel polish and acrylic nails are bad for your nails. This is not entirely true.
It is a fact that removing gel polish, for example, causes damage to the nail. This is because gel polish is often removed with strong acetone or by soaking it in water, as this dries out your nails severely. You recognize dry nails They are the same, they look dull and white.
Removing any remaining residue and polishing the nail with a brush is also not good for the nails. The brush grinds away the gel polish and a layer of the nail. This causes rings on the nails. When the nail polish is gone, you can clearly see the circles.
To prevent nails from being severely damaged by gel polish, it is also important that you do not try to pick the gel polish off your nails yourself. With this, too, you can remove the top layer of your own nail and damage the nail. And that is, of course, not the intention.
