We do not know the composition of the base and the masthead of other companies, so we can not guarantee a perfect final result and seamless applications for their use.
What could be causing wrinkling, go paint?
The causes of such problems may be few. It is important to properly prepare the nail plate to complete manicure. Nail plate must be abraded and well degreased. We recommend the application of thin layers of each product Semilac: base, color and top. It should be applied carefully and avoid flooding on skin. It is worth remembering that exactly cover the base color and the free edge of the nail. In the case of very high pigment content colors (Semilac 001, 031, 016,151) applying a layer of color must be really thin - better to apply two thin coats rather than one thick and they may be cured for longer period of time.
Another reason for the above-mentioned problems may be inappropriate storage of paint - we recommend storing it at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and away from the UV lamp during a gel/hybrid manicure.
