Clear Nail Polish
Essential basics: When and why to use clear nail polish
Do you want to take care of your nails but not have a distinctive manicure that attracts lots of attention? Or, on the contrary, do you enjoy using different colours but want a manicure that lasts a long time? Whichever group you fall into, get yourself some clear nail varnish. Its main advantage is that it delivers shine and protection for your nails. Transparent nail polish can enhance the natural beauty of your nails while adding strength and resistance to breakage.
Discover the types of clear nail polishes
Transparent nail polish has a far wider range of options than you might first expect. Which clear polish will suit you best?
- clear top coat – applied as the final coat to already painted nails to extend the durability and shine of the nail polish underneath and, at the same time, protect it from chipping or the colour from fading
- base coat nail polish – a transparent base coat is applied before applying the coloured nail polish, to prepare the nail surface for further polish and increase adhesion of the colour to the nails; this ensures the colour lasts longer and your nails look better
- clear strengthening nail polish – contains ingredients that can help increase the strength and durability of nails, to prevent them from splitting and breaking
- clear gel nail polish – a long-lasting clear polish; most gel nail polishes are cured using a nail lamp
Tip: You can also try a matte clear nail polish. Matte nail polish gives your nails an interesting, sophisticated look.
Are you familiar with transparent colour nail polishes?
In addition to clear nail polishes, you can also get clear nail polishes that have a subtle tint – for example, the popular clear pink nail polish. These shades can optically smooth, lighten, or add a subtle hint of colour to the nails.
When should you use clear nail polish?
Colourless nail polish is the ideal choice for those who prefer a clean and simple look, but who still want to give their nails the care and protection they deserve.
