How many of us have gotten a manicure or pedicure with great looking nails only to bump them, scratch them or gouge them before they were dry. It happens to everyone! And it's frustrating.
But Creative Nail Design has a new product that is going to take the cake when it comes to professional manicures. This product isn't your typical nail polish. It's half polish, half gel. You get the beautiful shine like gel nails without any of the damaging effects of wearing fake nails.
They are dried by UV lights and are rock solid the second you walk out of the door. No more trying to avoid bumping your nails! And the best part is that they are guaranteed to look beautiful and perfect for a full 2 weeks. (Do I hear cheering?) I can not wait to try Shellac myself.
Manicurist and beauty blogger, Hillary Fry gave us the professional scoop with a great FAQ on Shellac. She probably answered most questions you could come up with, but if you have more, go ahead and leave them in the comments, and Hillary will stop by to answer them.

Thanks for sharing Shellac with your readers – it really is revolutionary!
How do you keep Shellac from chipping on the nail tips?
This happens after 1 week of application.
Nina, are you the client or the manicurist?
I just had my nails done with shellac and I cannot believe how beautiful it is and how long it last…..I have scrubbed the grill, washed the car and the dogs and my hair and they look as good as when I first got them done. This is awesome. I am sold!
This does sound amazing, I’m wondering if the removal method differs from plain old nail polish?
I’ve used the system on my own nails, and I was amazed how easy it is and how quick the application process is.
To remove them is even easier. They come off really quick with just pure acetone.
I’m pleased to have such good looking nails all the time!
