VITALUX ARTIFICIAL NAILS-AMPLIFICATION
provides fast, easy coverage! features a moderate c-curve and gentle arch for a
natural-looking finish.use with best materials.
The artificial nails are not a replacement, but an extension for natural nails. There are two main approaches to
creating artificial nails—tips and forms. Tips are made of lightweight plastic plates that are "nail"-shaped. They are
glued on the end of the natural nail. Then you have the choice to choose acrylic or gel powder to cover the nail.
When you have chosen acrylic, gel or a combination of both is then applied over the entire nail. Tips are available in
many different colors and designs. Some of the options ranging from simple colors such as yellow or blue to
flamboyant designs such as animal prints and mixed metallic colors. When you get acrylic nails, forms are fitted over
the nail and then an artificial nail is sculpted out of the acrylic, then properly shaped and buffed to a shine.
One popular material commonly called "Polymethyl methacrylate acrylics" is a mixture of a polymer powder and a
liquid monomer (e.g. ethyl methacrylate). The mixture starts to harden in 20–30 seconds after application and
continues to harden to final hardness typically within fifteen minutes. For the Gel nails another material, commonly
called "UV Top Coat" (in correct chemical terms a polymer resin), cures under ultraviolet light. Depending on brand
these can show a broader variety of quality and properties (flexibility, strength, etc.) but are more expensive.

ACRYLUX Brushes for Acrylic Application
Natural vs Synthetic Bristles
There are several factors that must be understood about brushes before you can begin to select a brush. Firstly it is important to understand why brushes for use with acrylic are usually made from kolinsky, sometimes called sable hair. Kolinsky is the hair gathered from a type of weasel found in the cold regions of Russia & China. Natural hair is used as it has an advantage of providing natural thickness towards the belly of the brush which allows it to hold liquid effectively (as in acrylic liquid). The strength and flexibility allows the brush to return to a point when wet. All hair has a structure known as the medulla which allows moisture to be absorbed. This acts as a reservoir to hold the acrylic liquid in nail brushes and releases in a controlled manner as pressure is applied with the brush by the nail technician. Kolinsky hair is far better in quality (sometimes known as golden sable) than the hair gathered from other weasels (sometimes known as red sable or just ‘sable’). If a brush states kolinsky, you can be sure you are buying the best quality brush bristles possible. With any natural hair brush, it is essential to maintain the brush with correct cleaning after every acrylic application to avoid the brush becoming stiff and damaged. You can purchase brand specific brush cleaners (designed to remove your specific acrylic product) and these often contain conditioners within them to keep the bristles smooth, flexible and keep the brush shape for longer. Natural brushes can be cleaned within acetone but this is not recommended as it can dry and damage the bristles over time.
THE RIGHT TOOL FOR THE JOB – BEST BRUSHES FOR UV GEL
UV Gel will usually require the use of a standard size
4 or 5 flat brush (for the creation of nail extensions).
These are often designed for use specifically with UV
Gel and are optimally shaped and sized for easy
product pick up and application. These are often
made with synthetic bristles to provide an easy to
clean, long lasting and affordable brush which picks
up the product without encouraging it to sink into the
brush which could cause product wastage and make
it harder to glide the product from brush to nail. Gel
Polish is usually applied with the brush that came
enclosed within the product lid and there is no need
to use any alternative brush.
