 What Are Acrylic and Gel Powder Nails?

Before diving into the Shellac finish, let’s break down the two most common types of nail enhancement systems:

 Acrylic Nails

Acrylic nails are a combination of liquid monomer and powder polymer that hardens when exposed to air. This classic method is known for:

• Exceptional strength
• Sculpting versatility
• Long wear time (3+ weeks)
• Great for clients with weak or brittle nails

  Gel Powder Nails

Gel powder nails are similar to acrylics but cured under a UV/LED light. They are lighter in texture and offer a smoother finish than traditional acrylics. Benefits include:

• Lighter weight feel
• Natural-looking finish
• Lower odor and quicker set time
• Less prone to lifting or yellowing

Both systems create a strong foundation that protects your natural nails while enhancing their appearance.

 Why Choose a Shellac Finish?

Shellac is a hybrid polish that combines the ease of traditional nail polish with the long-lasting power of gel polish. When used as a finish over acrylic or gel powder, it provides:

• Ultra-shiny, glossy finish
• Chip-free wear for 14–21 days
• Zero drying time (cured under LED light)
• Gentle on the nail bed with proper removal

Shellac comes in hundreds of colors, from neutral nudes to bold reds, trendy glitters, and elegant French finishes. It’s the ultimate topcoat to lock in beauty and elevate your nail look.

  The Benefits of Acrylic or Gel Powder Nails with Shellac Finish

This powerful combination brings together form, function, and flair. Here’s why it’s a client favorite at VIP Nails & Spa:

 1. Long-Lasting Durability

Enjoy strong nails that resist chipping, breaking, and lifting—perfect for everyday tasks or special occasions.

 2. Ultra-Glossy Shine

Shellac delivers a mirror-like shine that stays vibrant and polished for weeks.

 3. Customization

From shapes and lengths to color gradients and designs, we create a nail look that fits your style.

4. Strength + Flexibility

While acrylics provide toughness, Shellac adds flexibility, which helps prevent cracks and wear.

 5. Quick & Clean Application

With skilled technicians, we ensure a fast, hygienic application process, so you’re in and out without long drying times.

 6. Less Frequent Maintenance

Because of its lasting power, you’ll spend less time at the salon while enjoying salon-quality nails longer.
