Acrylics
(31products)Frequently Asked Questions
-
Acrylics and acrylic gels primarily differ in application technique and product properties. Acrylics are a combination of acrylic powder and monomer liquid, forming a fast-drying mass. They cure naturally in the air, meaning the stylist must work quickly and precisely before the material hardens. Acrylic gels, on the other hand, are a hybrid of gel and acrylic, allowing more time for shaping. They cure in a UV/LED lamp, offering a more relaxed application process and better shape refinement. Both products are durable, but acrylic gels are more flexible, making them ideal for those seeking a natural look and wearing comfort.

The choice of acrylic color depends on your design and the style you want to achieve. For elegant, classic stylings, neutral nude shades and delicate pastels are excellent choices. If you want an eye-catching manicure, opt for intense neons, metallic finishes, or bold, dark colors. Colored acrylic can also be used for artistic decorations, such as 3D flowers, gradients, or geometric patterns. Our wide color palette allows you to match the product to both minimalist designs and extravagant styles.

Acrylics require practice, but with the right technique and experience, they can also be used by beginners. Mastering the proportions of the acrylic mixture and the working speed is crucial, as acrylic dries quickly in the air. It is advisable to start with simpler stylings, such as nail extensions on a form, before moving on to more complex decorations. If you are looking for a material that is more forgiving of mistakes, acrylic gels might be a better choice – their application provides more time for perfecting details.
-
The durability of acrylic styling depends on several key factors. First, properly prepare the nail plate – clean, buff, and apply primer to ensure good adhesion. It is also essential to maintain an even thickness of the acrylic, especially in the stress area, which is responsible for nail strength. Finally, secure the styling with a top coat to protect it from scratches and add shine. Avoid direct contact with chemicals and excessive nail strain to enjoy their beautiful appearance for as long as possible.

Yes, acrylics are safe if used according to instructions and removed properly. The key element is preparing the nail plate without excessive filing – a gentle buffing is enough to ensure good adhesion. The removal of acrylic styling should be done using acetone or specialized removers to avoid damaging the natural nail. Additionally, high-quality products containing nail-friendly formulas help minimize the risk of weakening the natural plate. With proper care, nails will remain healthy and ready for new stylings.

Applying acrylic to nails - step by step
Using acrylic requires masterful precision and the right technique to achieve a durable and aesthetic result. Here are the key steps to correctly use acrylic in nail styling:
- Preparing the Nail Plate
Ensure that the natural nail plate is properly cleaned and buffed. Remove cuticles, file nails into the desired shape, and clean the surface with a cleaner to remove dust and grease residues. This step is crucial for the longevity of the design. - Applying the Primer
Apply a thin layer of acid-free or acid-based primer (depending on the needs of the nail plate) to enhance acrylic adhesion and prevent chipping. - Preparing the Acrylic Mixture
Dip the brush into the acrylic liquid (monomer), then touch it to the acrylic powder to form a bead of the right consistency. The bead should be compact but not too wet or too dry – the correct proportion is key. - Applying Acrylic to the Nail
Place the acrylic bead on the nail or form and gently spread it with a brush, shaping the desired form. Work quickly yet precisely before the material starts to harden. Maintain an even thickness – most of the product should be in the nail’s stress area. - Curing and Shaping
Allow the acrylic to dry in the air. Unlike gel, acrylic does not require a UV/LED lamp. Once the material hardens, file the nail into the perfect shape, then smooth the surface using a buffing block. - Securing the Design
Apply a top coat to add shine and protect the nails from damage. Cure the product in a UV/LED lamp if required by the top coat.
