What is Dazzle Dry?

Dazzle Dry is a unique nail system that combines the durability of gel with the ease of regular polish. It air-dries in just five minutes—no UV light required—and lasts up to two weeks without chipping. Even better, it’s vegan, cruelty-free, and free of harmful chemicals like formaldehyde, toluene, and DBP, making it a safer choice for both your nails and overall health.

Who is Dazzle Dry Best For?

Busy Professionals & Moms: If you don’t have time to wait for polish to dry or make frequent salon visits, Dazzle Dry’s quick-drying formula and long wear make life easier.

Those Who Want to Avoid Gel or Acrylics: If you love strong, glossy nails but want to skip the UV exposure and soak-off process, Dazzle Dry provides a similar effect without the hassle.

Natural Nail Lovers: It strengthens natural nails over time instead of causing damage, making it perfect for those who prefer a non-invasive approach to nail care.

Anyone Looking for a Cleaner, Healthier Option: Free from harsh chemicals, Dazzle Dry is an ideal choice for those with sensitive skin, allergies, or a commitment to non-toxic beauty.

How to Maintain a Dazzle Dry Manicure

Like any manicure, Dazzle Dry lasts longest with proper care. Here’s how to get the most out of yours:

1. Keep Nails Hydrated – Regularly apply cuticle oil to keep nails and surrounding skin healthy.

2. Wear Gloves for Chores – Protect your manicure from harsh cleaning chemicals and excessive water exposure. Choose from disposable or reusable!

3. Avoid Peeling or Picking – If you notice a lift, resist the urge to pick at it! Instead, apply a thin layer of topcoat two times a week to extend wear and prevent chipping. If lifting or chipping happens, you can use regular nail polish remover to remove Dazzle Dry!

4. Reapply the Topcoat – Adding a fresh layer of Dazzle Dry’s topcoat every few days helps maintain shine and durability.

5. Schedule Regular Touch-ups – While Dazzle Dry is incredibly long-lasting, regular salon visits will keep your nails in tip-top shape. Want to use Dazzle Dry at home? Orders yours here!

Structured gel nails are a game-changer for those looking for durable, natural-looking enhancements that support nail health. Whether you’re new to structured gel or considering making the switch, here’s everything you need to know about this long-lasting nail service.

What Is Structured Gel?

Structured gel is a type of builder gel designed to add strength and support to natural nails without the need for acrylics or traditional hard gels. Unlike regular gel polish, which is mainly for color, structured gel provides an added layer of protection, helping nails grow longer and stronger over time. It’s applied in a way that enhances the natural nail’s shape while maintaining flexibility and durability.

Who Is Structured Gel Best For?

Structured gel is perfect for:

Clients with weak or brittle nails – If your nails tend to peel, split, or break easily, structured gel can reinforce them, helping you maintain length.

Those who love natural-looking nails – Structured gel provides a smooth, natural appearance while still offering extra strength.

Clients who want long-lasting wear – Compared to regular gel polish, structured gel manicures typically last 3 to 4 weeks without chipping.

People growing out their natural nails – The added strength and protection make it easier to grow nails without the fear of breakage.

Anyone who prefers a lightweight feel – Unlike acrylics, structured gel doesn’t feel heavy on the nails, making it a comfortable option for everyday wear.

How to Maintain Structured Gel Nails

To get the most out of your structured gel manicure, follow these essential upkeep tips:

1. Schedule Regular Fills – Structured gel grows out with your natural nails, so it’s important to get a fill every 3 to 4 weeks to maintain balance and prevent lifting.

2. Keep Nails Hydrated – Using cuticle oil and/or lotion daily helps prevent dryness, keeping your nails and surrounding skin healthy.

3. Avoid Picking or Peeling – If your gel starts to lift, don’t pick at it! This can damage your natural nails. Instead, book an appointment to have them professionally filled or removed. You can also remove them yourself at home with just a few things. You’ll need acetone, Cuticle pusher or orange wood stick a 180/100 grit nail file or higher, foil nail wraps or foil and cotton. Full removal guide coming soon!

4. Wear Gloves for Heavy Tasks – Cleaning, washing dishes, or working with harsh chemicals can weaken your nails. Wearing gloves, reusable or disposable, helps protect your structured gel.

5. Use Nail-Friendly Products – Avoid excessive exposure to acetone-based removers, which can weaken the gel over time.
