Self Care: At Home Manicure feat. Zoya Gelie-Cure

Hello Everyone!


* Disclaimer: This post contains PR Samples provided by Zoya for review purposes. I would like to thank  Zoya for sending these products. All opinions are 100% my own. Product information is courtesy of zoya.com

For my latest self care post I to discuss at home manicures. You can't forget about caring for your nails! When I was in high school and during my freshman year of college, I used to love going to get my nails done at the nail salon. As I got older, I spent more time doing my own manicures at home. Today I will be sharing with you a new step system from Zoya Naked Manicure Gelie-Cure.











DESCRIPTION 

Zoya Remove Plus is an award wining, gentle, yet highly effective 3-in-1 nail polish remover, nail prep and nail conditioner. Longer nail polish wear starts with Remove Plus. Now available in a 2oz travel size container!  



DESCRIPTION

The Rescue Serum is the first and most important step of the Gelie-Cure System. The Serum is the ultimate treatment skin care for nails and cuticles. It revitalizes the nail by replenishing the sebum on the natural nail plate and fills the open spaces in the keratin fibers of the nail improving nail strength and flexibility. If your nails are perfect, it will help keep them looking and feeling that way. But if your nails are less than perfect, the Serum immediately starts working its magic helping to improve the look and feel of the nails.

It’s the first line of defense against potential damage from excessive moisture, dryness and brittleness. The Serum is the solution to nail damage from prolonged wear and removal of gel nail polish, acrylic nails, dips and other nail enhancements. The Rescue serum can also be used as a daily stand-alone cuticle treatment.

The Gelie-Cure Rescue Serum is a naturally derived combination of oils, nutrients and conditioners never before used in nail care treatment.  It is the first of its kind, nail treatment that allows you to paint directly over it without washing it off your nails or cuticles.

The Rescue Serum is designed to be worn as a cushion underneath the Gelie-Cure Repair Base Coat. Read the Gelie-Cure Rescue Serum Instructions and Usage Guide and see all the unique possibilities it holds for your nails and cuticles. Say goodbye to unsightly damaged nails forever!



DESCRIPTION

The Gelie-Cure Repair Base Coat is a groundbreaking formula that is applied directly over the Gelie-Cure Rescue Serum. The Repair Base is able to adhere to the nail and uses a pinpoint locking mechanism to lock the Rescue Serum into the keratin of the nail.  The Repair Base contains invisible fillers strengthen the nail as well as smooth out nail ridges, flaking and separation. The Repair Base also contains optical diffusers that brighten the appearance of the nail for a healthier looking nail.

The Repair Base is the second step in the Gelie-Cure System and is designed to be applied directly over the Rescue Serum. The Gelie-Cure Repair Base is a “Big 10 Free” breathable formula, free of formaldehyde, toluene and DBP.

Some people who choose not to do the complete Gelie-Cure system opt for using the Rescue Serum and Repair base as stand-alone nail treatments.



DESCRIPTION

The Gelie-Cure Naked Gelie is the first ever demi-gel multi-purpose clear gel coat. The Naked Gelie formula is ultra-light, self leveling and offers a high shine, flexible, fileable and damage free results. It’s designed to adhere directly to the Gelie-Cure Repair Base and Rescue Serum and removes in 2 minutes (we’re not kidding) without scraping, soaking in acetone, filing or pushing, simply using Zoya’s award winning Remove polish remover.

This product should only be used with the complete Gelie-Cure System and only within the Recommended Gelie-Cure Usage Guide.

The Naked Gelie formulas is self-leveling, cures in 1 minute with any of Naked Manicure LED lights.  Please note only Naked Manicure LED lights are guaranteed to work with 100% certainty.  This is due to the unique light cross-array that is not standard on many LED light brands.  It’s not about the power, it’s about the coverage. Until you perfect usage do not try with any other light brand. We’re not kidding!



DESCRIPTION

The Clear shine is essential for use with the Naked Gelie. It’s a quick and simple wiping formula that removes and reside after curing and amps up the shine of the Naked Gelie layer. The Clear Shine formula can be used with any other brands of LED curing products.



The Gelie-Cure Pro LED Light comes with an adapter and different time settings ranging from 10 seconds to 90 seconds. I forgot to mention try not to get the Gelie-Cure Naked Gelie on the sides of your fingers because it can be a little difficult to remove. Try to get coat your nail thin as possible.







I chose the large Light, so I could get more of  an "at home nail salon manicure." You have to set your time on the back, but Once you place your hand inside the lamp it automatically lights up.


I cured my thumb by itself so I could lay my thumb flat under the lamp. I only used clear, but with this system you can use any color you want after you cure your nails. 


The finished result


The photo doesn't compare to how amazing my nails look. My nails look so healthy and shiny.  I've done plenty of home manicures, but by far this is my favorite. My nails look at feel like I went to a nail salon. Since most people are at home during this quarantine, you can still have beautiful nails done at home. I'm so proud of how my nails are growing  and becoming healthy again. I grew my nails long a few years ago, but they became brittle due to my severe iron deficiency anemia. Thank you Zoya for providing products to help treat my nails! 


I also wanted to mention, if you're in search of hand Sanitizer Zoya is selling it on their website

I bet that was so nice for you to get a manicure, especially right now during this stay-at-home time. Your nails look great, Pilar. I've always had short nails, so I admire your long nails. Now, you can apply some pretty nail polish on them. : )
