There’s a nail salon down the road that looks like every nail salon around the world.
Enter, and once you have washed and sanitized your hands, be treated to a manicure like every other, in a fume-filled room where mono-syllabic nail technicians gruffly scrub and buff your fingernails.
Except, one afternoon, I spied a little sign on the wall.
“Treat yourself,” it said, for a small extra cost, “to DAZZLE DRY!”
“Tell me more,” I enquired.
“It’s cruelty-free, vegan, kind to nails, harder-than-nails, quick to apply, easy to remove,” said the gruff nail technician, in a monotone. Basically, it’s a Gelish-type of nail polish, without the pain.
“It's about time! Give it to me...” I uttered.
They did, and there’s no looking back.
Google says “Unlike conventional gels or gel nails, Gelish is applied like a normal polish (base coat, color coat and top coat) but cured under UV… It holds up to 3 weeks of high shine gloss.”
Why Dazzle Dry?
Imagine a nail polish that not only dries in a flash but also nourishes your nails, and is free from harmful chemicals. Dazzle Dry is the ultimate revolution in nail care. Say goodbye to waiting forever for your nails to dry and hello to a healthier, quicker, and more vibrant manicure.
In the past, I only applied Gelish to my toes. My fingernails grow way faster than my toenails, so the thought of the color growing out was never worth the 3 weeks longevity. In the few times I had Gelish applied to my fingernails, the growth spurts had left a crescent of unpainted keratin in the wake of the color, so, filled with impatience, I was unable to resist pulling off the Gelish coating, leaving 10 thin, rough, vulnerable fingernails behind.
According to the American Association of Dermatologists, “Although gel manicures can be beautiful and long-lasting, they can be tough on nails. Gel manicures can cause nail brittleness, peeling and cracking, and repeated use can increase the risk for skin cancer and premature skin aging on the hands.” My nail technician tells me stories of customers who insist on Gelish, to the detriment of their almost non-existent and pained fingernails.
Move over, Gelish! Dazzle Dry is here, and it's changing the nail care game.
Dazzle Dry vs. Gelish: What’s the Difference?
Similar to Gelish, Dazzle Dry holds weeks of whatever color you want on your fingertips. The difference for me is that there's no snoozy waiting for the UV light to cure each layer, and, though Dazzle Dry requires 4 steps in its application, it's super speedy, and lasts just as long, if not longer. It feels amazing too!
Once the Dazzle Dry has been removed, which takes 2 minutes with any regular nail polish remover (no more wasteful, slow, cold aluminum foil soaks…), the nail feels strong and conditioned. With all these benefits, for me, my fingernails and the planet, it’s obvious which is the nail paint of the future.
